Looking for a good Manual Nikkor 50mm lens?

I have the version you linked and also dig it.

Although, I will save I have a couple other 50 1.4's that I actually like more, even though all my other lenses are Nikkors.

For some reason I like the Mamiya Sekor 50 1.4 I have more.
 
I'm partial to Olympus Zuiko OM lenses. I like their colors alot better than the Nikkors. I just picked up a 50 f1.4 and it was a spectacular buy at only $55 in mint condition. Another advantage of the Zuiko's is that they pull focus the same direction as Canon lenses. Nikkor's rotate the opposite way and in the heat of the moment I alwasys get mixed up :)

Anyway the Zuiko OM 50 F1.4 or better yet the super rare 50 F1.2 are definitely worth a look if they happen to come up for sale in your local relm.

Cheers,
Pete

Ok now I have 3 50mm lenses to choose from........ :( Don/t know which one.....
 
I have to second the 50mm f/1.2. Great, great lens. Here it is in action on a 60D (most of the b-roll is the 50 f/1.2 at around f/4).
