Its £89 at Argos thought
That got me looking at their web site, and that made me chuckle at some of their prices!!! £350 for the Canon 55-250 IS, £430 for the 28-135 IS!!! Who are they kidding??
The Nikon lens is £99 at Camerabox

I remember these used to be a lot cheaper... Bad times!
i read in Photo Monthly on test that the Nikon 50mm f1.8 was far better value and scored more stars than the much more expensive f1.4
That is for YOU to decide, it the extra 0.4 + lens bag + metal mount + hood (or is that just the AFS) worth the money?????
The f1.8 I got has a metal mount - is there a newer version with a plastic one?
Also the front element on the 1.8 is so far back it doesn.t need a hood.
The middle bit of the mount is plastic on the AF 50mm f1.8 D (right hand lens)
I think you mean left hand lens

It's a long story but when I typed that it was mirrored! I realised when the text was backwards and fixed the picture but forgot to fix the text
