This is a decent lens if its on sale. The only reason its getting a mediocre rating is because at full price, I simply cant see it being that much better than the excellent Nikon 50mm f/1.8G. The 1.8G is a flat out bargain, and is the main reason many people might choose not to purchase the 1.4G. I own both, and spent some time testing both lenses, and in most instances the 1.8G is as good or better. On the plus side, the lens focuses fairly quickly, and opens up to f/1.4 when you need it. Its slightly heavier than the 1.8, but not so heavy to weigh you down. I think its a decent lens to have if you get it at a great price, otherwise id get the 1.8 and save the difference for something else.
