If there’s one lens that I recommend to photographers who only have the kit lens that came with their camera, it’s the nifty fifty. The Nikon 50mm f/1.8 S is no exception, delivering gorgeous bokeh and sharp subjects without dropping the thousands usually required for a bright zoom lens. And the bright nifty fifty has just dropped to its lowest price in months.
The Nikon 50mm f/1.8 S typically costs more than $660 in the US, but right now the lens is $200 off. The only time the lens was cheaper was last Black Friday, when it was $427. The discount is so good, it pushes the lens under Nikon’s non-S series budget nifty fity.
