Comments: Nice little lens. I use it all the time when I travel because of its compact size. Bokeh is a little gross wide open, but nice at f/2.8 or so. Wish it focused closer.
The same optics are found in an AI-S version, some focus down to 0.45 m / 1.5 feet which would be nice. They are also found in the 50mm f/1.8 AF and AF-D lenses.
