Nikkor 50mm f1.8d vs f1.8g is there really a difference?

I bought the "G" for one reason only. I do a lot shooting in nasty, and sometimes dusty conditions, the "G" is Weather sealed much more so with no moving external parts.

Good to know..

not necessarily sharper. you can get really sharp images with a non macro lens. your just able to focus closer to your subject with a macro lens.

Ahh, got it. Thanks.
