Canon's $40 Super-Macro Lens

I just want to add that if you do decide to go this route, get the manual focus 55mm Micro-Nikkor f/3.5. It's a real macro lens (1:2) that will mount on any Nikon DSLRs (AI version) without need for any reversing rings. Everything jpeyton said above is true about its limitations, but it's one of...

Are you sure they haven't been AI converted? Here's a nice illustration showing the differences between a AI and non-AI. Text If you have a pre-AI lens, and the edge of the mount has a ridge, then it has been converted.

Pre-AI Nikons will only mount on D40, D40x, D60. AI and AIS lenses can mount on any DSLR. I have many lenses from both categories and they mount just fine on my D40. Just no metering.

Nikon 50mm f/1.4D AF vs f/1.8 AF

Keep in mind that with a 1.4, your depth of field is also thinner. Could be an issue for focusing if your subject is moving.
