I do not have much expectation about this lens since Nikon has both 50mm 1.4D and 1.4G with affordable prices.[/quote]
Well, relatively cheap and for the money jolly good is the 50 mm 1.8D, although some say that the "Made in Japan" pre-D versions were even better. Anyhow, it´s simply a logical step that Nikon is now going to a provide an AF-S 50 mm 1.8G in particular for those who own an entry level Nikon DSLR without internal focus drive motor.
