Looks good but MF ?
Sorry that just made this lens uninteresting for me.

I'm agreed here.

Interestingly, the exposure information on the accompanying photos all say that the focal length is 50mm. Why is that?

Perhaps because this is a rather well done SPAM post with misleading photos. This is the one and only post by the OP hyping a particular lens. Just saying.

I think 50mm is a 'default' focal length for the non-chipped lens options you can program in. If you don't punch in a specific focal length into the camera, it will assume it's 50mm no matter what lens you put on.

Hey Sparky, speaking of that, on my D7200 there is a menu entry for non CPU lens. What if I have lets say and 80-200mm zoom, do I enter 200mm or 80?

I'd put in some odd FL like 120mm. That way I would know it was a 80-200 zoom lens since I don't own a 120mm prime (although I used to back in my early film days).

Doesn't look very special.
Voted no, not at all.
