Much higher quality in what sense? Both 50mm is all plastic, made in China. The new 50mm has no aperture ring, and same IQ (according to dxomark on the D4).

Yeah 100 ISO is probably too low. Most consumer grade DSLRs 'native' ISO is 200, 100 ISO would cause your exposures to be twice as long as necessary. But still, you might have your aperture clamped...

The lens is not the problem. Any shutter speed is "normal" depending on shooting conditions and the metering mode. Learn how to use the equipment and I'm sure you will be fine.

No, 13 seconds indicates something is wrong. Depending on ISO 1.3 seconds could be realistic tho.
What camera and what ISO?
Also, this is probably a dumb question, but you don't have a filter on...

It shouldn't.. I have the 105 f/2.8 as well, and it's a great lens. It's not as good for low light as the f/1.8 or f/1.4 primes, but it's better/just as good as any zoom lens out there. Make sure...

Just as an FYI for those looking at the 85mm f/1.8G, Adorama has a free filter on the 85mm f/1.8G when you click add to cart.
