NIKON: Do you agree with this?
I have the 50mm f1.8 lens that many people say 'what is the point if it doesn't Zoom "or" very limited its "I think its an amazing and well built lens does not agree with people who say that?
When I first starting taking pictures, F2AS was a Nikon (went a little overboard …) and Nikkor 50 mm f 1.2. That was all I could afford. It worked well. I zoomed in with my legs. Same lens, more than 20 years old. http://www.flickr.com/photos/little_pooky/2338903923 used with Nikon FM2.
