AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G

I have had this lens for about 3 weeks now. I am very happy with every aspect of this lens. Very good in low light. Excellent indoors, and great for landscape. I took some beautiful shots with it a few weeks ago of some water falls in the Shenandoah National park. Well worth the price.

If you want a lens that is light in weight, this is the one. It has been awesome in shooting where there is not very good lighting. It is a lens that I will have around for many years to come. Great lens.

Stays on the D3100 all the time.I got 3 lenses except the kit lens and this is my favorite one. since I had the 35mm range covered by the 18-55 kit, I though I don´t need this one.Reading all the awesome reviews about it I decide to buy it, because it is inexpensive. What I like about it is that it is tough, light,small, does no need VR (saves me battery) colors are great, it is very sharp, I love the depth of field, the bokeh I like, even the pro- photogs say it is not very good.What I do not like about it is... hm, I don´t know, I´m not a pro photographer ,who knows what, a super expensive 35mm(or 50mm FX) prime can do, but I think this 35mm prime is AWESOME ! Everyone who has a DX body have to make him/her self very happy with one of these !!!

Using this lens on my D7000 is a joy, mainly because of its light weight, small size and quiet operation. Using it in either still or movie mode, it focuses fast and accurately and is quick enough for stage lighting conditions. The manual focus is easy and fast too, and allows for beautiful bokeh in either still or movie mode at the more open settings.

Purchased the lens today and right away I was impressed.

Took a photo of the salesman and it was an awesome shot and then went to the outdoor mall and started checking out various targets.

I am really happy with this lens and know that it will produce the detailed product I am wanting to achieve. Looking forward to taking pictures at the upcoming weddings.... [Go Ahead - GET it! You won´t be disappointed]

I have to say it, the 35mm on a DX format camera is the best lens you can buy. GET IT!

The 35 1.8 G has outstanding sharpness corner to corner. No discernable viganetting or pincushoning. Color rendition is outstanding. Focus is fast and quiet. A must have lens.

I purchased this lens looking for a fast short prime lens for nature and environmental portraiture work. So far I have been very happy with the results. Placed on the front of my 3100, I have been impressed with it´s ability to focus fairly quickly, especially with the MA setting. With a good set of close up filters you even get usable macro shots. Nice bokah as well, though not as great as some of the higher end models. For the price it is hard to beat though. Only quibble is that you can´t change aperture on the lens.

I think I have a new favorite lens.....First and foremost, the price point for this lens is reasonably inexpensive, especially being a Nikon product. It is worth every penny. The pictures this lens produces are crisp and colorful. Portraits turn out beautifully and close-ups are sharp. This lens is easy to use regardless of your level of experience.
