My Nikon 50mm AF f1.4D lens should be arriving via UPS anytime now.  I’ve gotten into more serious hobby photography ever since I purchased my Nikon D80 DSLR.  Its my hope to be able to take pictures in low light situations without the need of a flash.  Lots of places prohibit flashes and even when they dont it can be a nuisance to others.  My need for this type of lens cam about at a friends recent birthday party.  It was at night with everyone gathered around a fire pit in the backyard.  Without using flash, eliminating the natural fire light ambience or a tripod, which I didnt have with me, I was unable to capture the scene as I had wanted.   With this lens I dont think there would have been any problems in getting great pictures lit only by the flickering flames of the fire.
