The Nikon AF 50mm f/1.8D lens is a great choice for portraits and everyday photography. Its large maximum aperture of f/1.8 gathers lots of light so you can use faster shutter speeds to "freeze" moving subjects. This lens is also ideal for taking great-looking photos indoors without a flash. And its compact, lightweight design won't weigh down your camera bag as you carry it around town.
