His expertise with equipment doesn’t end there, though. He is also an encyclopedia when it comes to all manner of cameras, camera holsters and bags, flashguns, tripods and heads, printers, papers and inks, and just about anything imaging-related. Matthew Richards is a photographer and journalist who has spent years using and reviewing all manner of photo gear. He is Digital Camera World's principal lens reviewer – and has tested more primes and zooms than most people have had hot dinners! Lens uses electronic focus ring. Focus ring plastic, not rubberized, wide, in manual focus mode rotates approximately two full turns. When extreme positions are reached, the ring does not abut, but continues to rotate. Manual focus is enough conveniently. The focus ring rotates very easily (with one finger). I did not observe delays when changing the direction of rotation. The focus ring during manual focusing makes a faint sound of two rubbing plastic parts. The electronic focus ring is more responsive to its speed of rotation than to a specific angle of rotation, which sometimes creates a tactile inconvenience. Yes they both should redo their 50s. But if you need it now there is the great Sigma 50mm F1.4 Art, And the Tamron 45mm F1.8 with VC. Both great options."

It just so happens that I have used almost all Yongnuo lenses. Added YouTube videos for all Yongnuo lenses (generations, lineups, etc.) https://youtu.be/AfQ76sAwIac Nikon AF-S Nikkor 50mm 1: 1.8G SWM Aspherical (the fourth version, MKIV, better known as the ‘G’-version or’ AF-S ‘version) – the lens has been produced since 2011, all lenses are produced in China. The lens is nice, but there was a feeling of some kind of granular structure of the picture, in principle it is typical for Sony, but I did not think that on the A3500 it would be so much noticeable even on the ISO 200 Personally, I liked the previous version better - it is the most 'hardcore', you should not expect anything special from it, at the same time Yongnuo 50 / 1.8 MKI quite decently removes. The updated version is already a more or less serious lens, at least at first glance, but the old optical circuit does not make it more productive, and the old autofocus logic has not been fixed. Important: this particular copy suffers from a front-focus on the Nikon D40 camera, which is used by the owner of this lens (according to the owner).Snapshots with the Nikon D70. The photos are shown without processing, a camera JPEG. You can see the bokeh of the lens. On the case no focus mode switch. The focus method is set through the camera menu. For manual focus, select the focus mode MF (manual focus) or DMF (direct manual focus) in the camera menu, after which the focus ring will respond to rotation after half-pressing the shutter button.

Yongnuo 50mm f/1.8 Lens Review | ePHOTOzine

unsystematic focusing errors (but it cannot be said that there are tangible problems with focusing)

I have no significant complaints about the image quality, as well as the overall functioning of the lens. The YN 50 / 1.8S has nothing more. This is a cheap and efficient lens.

Important: this lens is primarily designed for amateur photographers (not professionals and not advanced amateurs!), who will take good care of their photo equipment and refrain from using it in conditions with a heavy load (weddings, reports, extreme conditions, etc.). I saw with my own eyes how my colleague, during the change of lenses, dropped the Nikon 50/1.8D from a meter height on the concrete floor. The lens received only a tiny scratch on the barrel, but it did not affect its functionality in any way. I do not think Yongnuo 50mm 1:1.8 will survive such a test. At the time of this review, Canon only had one such lens, namely Canon 50 / 1.4 USM, with him I will compare Yongnuo 50 / 1.4. The creative and practical potential of this 50 mm lens is difficult to overestimate. It is suitable for a wide range of photo tasks. Photographers often use it as a portrait lens. A lot of them just want a high-speed fix, in addition to their kit lens. The aperture F/1.8 is 3.5 stops wider than the aperture F/5.6, which is used in the ‘slow’ kit lenses at 50 mm. In a numerical equivalent, this means that the Yongnuo 50mm 1:1.8 (YN50mm F1.8N) is 10 times faster, for example than Nikon 18-55/3.5-5.6 kit lens (which uses a maximum relative aperture, equal to only 1:5.6, for 50 mm). Counting in the difference of the relative aperture is quite simple: (5.6*5.6)/(1.8*1.8) = 9.679, rounded to the value ’10’. I doubt though if it will be as good as my 10 year or so old EF 50mm f1.4. Automatic image corrections built into present Canon cameras and some editing software corrects most errors in known Canon lenses. Youngnu wont correct in Canon cameras and not likely in editing software such as DXO. I imagine the build quality is probably inferior to Canon lenses.Unfortunately, I don't have a full-frame camera or a wide-angle lens. To get more size and depth into the room (the photo) I chose a low perspective and the 50 mm - f 1.8/ lens from Yongnuo. Yongnuo 50mm 1: 1.8 (YN50mm F1.8N) is a very inexpensive fast nifty fifty lens from the Chinese manufacturer Yongnuo Digital. The lens copied the original Nikon 50/1.8G barrel design and the optical performance of the Yongnuo Lens EF 50mm 1: 1.8. In general, it is not bad. First of all Yongnuo YN50mm F1.8N is interesting to owners of Nikon D40, D40x, D60, D3000, D3100, D3200, D3300, D3400, D5000, D5100, D5200, D5300, D5500, D5600. For those who have a Nikon camera with a built-in focus motor, there is a remarkable and inexpensive Nikon 50/. 1.8D (as well as a million of its old sub-versions). there is no tag for working in the infrared spectrum and the depth of field scale that the CANON LENS EF 50mm 1: 1.8 Sharpness is very good indeed, even at f/1.8, the Yongnuo almost matching the much pricier Nikon Z 50mm f/1.8 S. Bokeh is a little fidgety even when shooting wide-open at f/1.8, and not the smoothest that we’ve seen from a 50mm f/1.8 lens, but it’s still pretty good and remains so when stopping down a little, helped by the well-rounded 9-blade aperture diaphragm. So maybe it is an upcoming design for lenses primarily used for mirrorless systems and now adapted to a SLR lens.

Yongnuo YN50mm F1.8Z DF DSM review | Digital Camera World

good optical performance. Moderate level of basic optical distortion ( vignetting, distortion, drop of sharpness to the edges and corners of the image, etc.)The best option is Nikon 50 / 1.8G (even in used condition). Fotika has used it. with a guarantee https://fotika.com.ua/obiektiv-nikon-af-s-nikkor-50mm-f-1.8g/ The minimum focusing distance is 45 cm, while you can get the maximum magnification for macro photography 1: 6.67, which is typical for a large number of such fifty dollars.
