Cons: Because of its age, the optics are out of date. Wide open it is a little soft and chromatic aberration pretty terrible in high contrast scenes. If you're new to manual focusing it will be difficult to use.
Pros: Really fun to use, produces great bokeh, IQ is overall very good, inexpensive on the used market.
Summary: Chromatic aberration wide open can be quite bad in high contrast scenes (think chrome bicycle in afternoon sunlight -- magenta, green, and cyan fringing). But that's not to be unexpected on lenses this old. IQ overall is very good, bokeh is nice, the price is right on the used market, but it's a manual focus lens and if you're not used to focusing manually you may have difficulty with it.

User profile: Semipro
Cons: - A tad heavy - Could be more contrasty at f/1.8 - Chromatic abberation wide open - Not the easiest lens to focus manually at f/1.8 due to size and weight
Pros: + Fast yet sharp wide open + Good contrast at f/2.8-11 + Creamy bokeh + Smooth and big focus ring + Built-in lens hood + Build quality + Flare resistant
Summary: I had this beauty for one month and had to sell it. The reason was the need for money. I've regretted it ever since. Perfect lens for portraiture. I shot almost 500 shots with it during that month and every time I return to those pictures they make me long for this lens. If you have a chance to test it, don't hesitate. If you see one under 400 euros, buy it. If you have it and think that some AF lens would be a better choice, think again. One of the best Nikkors there is.
