      Get the 1.4D instead it's much faster. However, it is kinda noisy.

        The Sigma 50/1.4 seems to be a good choice too, I've seen a lot of nice shots all over flickr. Def. works on FF sensors.

          Well since the FF capable lenses (when it comes to the 50mm!) ain't that much more in price than the crop versions 1.4G FX=340€ and 1.8G DX=190€ I think a 1.4D or the 1.8G are fine with me…since the reviews aren't that great on the 1.4G on a crop. The 1.8G is better for a crop in the end, so I think I'll go with that...

            I shoot with a 1.4d it is super fast and ultra sharp just a noisy motor.

                  daaaaaaaaaamn…now i`m jealous 🙂

                  how come you don´t post that much in here? would love to see some pics mate 🙂

                  have you tried the 50 1.4D on both of your cams (since one is FF and the other a crop) ?...
                  would be nice to read some informations from one who`s able to test it 🙂

                    Both are cropped sensors. I will post some of my wedding photography for you. I will upload some photos shortly.

                        thanks a lot for sharing your pics…great ones mate!

                        damn, i really wouldn`t thought of this decision being soooooooo fecking hard  😠

                        but in the end i think it´s save to go with the 50 1.8G i think...

                              Nice, Derivative! I would like to see some photos as well. I'm planning on getting started on wedding photography. I first want to acquire a FF body and create a portfolio before I send out any message if anyone is in need of a second shooter/gear boy. I would love to just go to weddings and observe the photographer rather than getting paid to be honest.

                              Rafa, don't know about Nikon but for Canon the Sigma 50 1.4 is the second to best nifty fifty. The Canon 50 1.4 sucks as it usually is in need of constant repair, plus Sigma has a 5 year warranty!

                                          50 is something else… it truly is an amazing lens.
