Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 50mm 1.4G prime lens is an upgrade version on the NIKKOR 50mm 1.4D. NIKKOR 50mm 1.4G prime lens is suitable for both Nikon FX and DX DSLR. It is equipped with SWM AF motor, you can enjoy very fast, smooth and quite auto focus.

Compare Nikon 50mm 1.4D with Nikon 50 1.4G, 1.4G improved on lens flare, chromatic aberration (effectively corrects sagittal coma flare and coma aberration) and most importantly, Nikon 50 1.4G delivery better background blur.

Lens cleaning is one of the most common problem for photographers. I think most of us has experience of carelessly touching the lens with fingers. The oil and fingerprint is really difficult to clean. I tried a few different lens cleaning products from the camera shop, none of them work as well as I expected (after cleaning, I can still see a thin layer of oil).

Finally I find the perfect lens cleaning cloth, not from the camera shops, but from a supermarket’s home cleaning department.
