... few days ago I thought to look into the 24mm f/1.4 - now that they can be had for a bargain.
Haven't ever used one but Frank's statement makes me even more curious.
How is the 24mm f/1.4 for starbursts?

Many thanks Birna and Frank. Yes I love the AF-S 20mm f/1.8 and also the AF-S 24mm f/1.8 for their starbursts. I also have the Z 20mm f/1.8 which is sharper but less starburst capable. I was planning on selling my DSLR and just using these great lenses and the 58mm f/1.4 via FTZ on a Z body but as Birna said the handling isn't ideal. Horses for courses...


Thank you for the clarification.


I still use 3 DSLR Bodies alongside my two Z Bodies. I even got the 1.4/24G again because I love its rendering so much: Pure Magic at f/1.4 ... The 1.8/20G is a terrific workhorse and very robust when strong light sources are in the frame. As I do not shoot IR the 1.4/58G is my favourite Portrait lens on the D500...

The 'Neo-Noct' 58/1.4 handles very well via FTZ due to its low weight and short build, though. In fact, after having used Paco's sample I was ever so slightly tempted to get one myself. However, I thwarted the attempt by reminding myself the 58/1.4 does make IR hot spots. So am safe for the time being :)
