Quick question people. Will the 50mm f1.8G lens take a 52mm lens filter as i need to get one for it.

If its this one - Review: Nikon 50mm f1.8 G - The Phoblographer it takes a 58mm filter. The Canon one is 52mm as far as I know.

You'll need a 58mm filter for that lens

The size is usually on the inside of the lens cover - for future reference.

I hear the G is sharper than the D ( 50mm ) ? I might have a look at the 85mm f/1.4D if I can find a good used one !

Nikon 50mm AF-S vs AF-D

My apologies @scott I was meaning the 50mm f/1.8G vs the 50mm f/1.8D!
