DC lenses are specially created for DSLR cameras. The rear lens image circle matches the smaller diameter used for the digital camera mage sensor. This results in these lenses being lighter and more compact, and are fully suited for DSLR cameras.
An f/1.4 lens is not usually as efficient as the same manufacture's f/1.8
or f/2 lenses, even when both are stopped down to f/5.6. the lens with the
wider aperture is heaver and more expensive, so don't choose it as your
standard unless you are planning a great deal of photography poor light
conditions. There' plenty of reasons for using a wide aperture, but avoid
buying a lens with an aperture wider than you need.
This lens is not suitable for any large-sensor digital SLR camera or for 35mm SLR film cameras.
The HSM feature allows this lens to autofocus on Nikon D40/D40x,
Nikon D60, Nikon D3000,
