Frequently asked questions
How is this different from the AF-S 50mm f/1.2?
Nikon doesn't make an AF-S 50mm f/1.2 for F-mount; the equivalent fast modern Nikkor is the AF-S 58mm f/1.4G for F-mount or the Z 50mm f/1.2 S for Z-mount. The AI-S 50mm f/1.2 is the historical flagship manual-focus Nikkor in this focal length.
