First Try of Nikon 24mm 1.4f


People who buy this lens mostly intend to use it for low-light portraits. Though it was not the reason I bought it, I decided to give it a try. It was very dark in my room and I could hardly see Mitty (very soundly sleep in her "bed", the only time she would tolerate some shooting). I set the camera to ISO1600, aperture f1.4; the camera basically did all the work. I was a bit worried about the auto-focus capability of the lens (there were some reports from the field that the auto-focus was not accurate), but found it was way better than my eyes in the dark.

  1. Lucky you. The 24mm/F1.4 lens has been the top of my wish list since last year.
