Why do you say that?

Nikkor 50mm F1.8 on SBIG STL11. Its not the best image I have done but I thought the little lens performed quite well and its very very bright for a 30 second exposure.
Its cheap and it has the least amount of distortion, vignetting, pin cushion of virtually any lens. Same with the Canon version.
Virtually no other focal length sells a lens at F1.8 for under $150 that is distortion free and really low vignetting.
