INTRODUCTION
In July 2006 I was loaned a Zeiss-branded 50mm f/1.4 lens. I started testing it, and realized it would be illuminating to compare it against a Nikon 50mm lens. Great idea, except I had dumped all of my 50mm lenses a decade ago. I asked, and was loaned several 50mm Nikkors for this comparison.
Caution: Most of these lenses have no autofocus performance because they are manual-focus lenses!
Manual-focus-only lenses went obsolete back in 1986 for 35mm cameras. Manual lenses won't autofocus at all with any camera, or meter on a D80, D50 or D70! Manual lenses have no electronic contacts to communicate with most Nikons made in the past 20 years. I didn't bother comparing AF performance among the three modern lenses which do have AF ability. The AF performance of the two 50mm AF lenses is identical.

| Fast, affordable, compact and portable, 35mm SLR cameras offer the latest in technology, including autofocusing, through-the-lens metering, and flash synchronization. |
 [medium format] | Medium format cameras produce negatives that are several times larger than their 35mm counterpart, yet are light enough to hold and offer many advanced focusing and metering features. . |
 [large format] | Ansel Adams' camera of choice. Why use a camera that has no automatic features, shows an image upside down and backwards and is so dim you need to put a black cloth over your head to see it? |
