A clear buy recommendation for all those who are on the move with Nikon's mirrorless full format. Great 50!

The 50 for 550 Euros was tested on the Z6 at the beginning of the year, now the test on the Z7 with similar results: the centre of the image already delivers a good result when open - however, the edge drop is clearly visible. At aperture 3.5 it plays only a minor role and decreases further at aperture 5.6. At the same time, the values for the centre of the image increase - recommended.

The housing is weatherproof sealed. The front lens is dirt- and grease-repellent thanks to a fluorine coating. The MF ring can be configured in AF mode so that you can set the aperture or exposure compensation with it. The lens has internal focusing and a very fast, quiet and smooth AF stepper motor - good also for video recording...
