AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G

Best one I have. Sharp, high resolution, low light (f1.8) capability, manual override of auto focus, no movement of front lens, silent focus. Like a eye of a photographer. You can move around unnoticed with a light, silent ordinary camera which faithfully recording what you see and recording the way you want. My most used lens. I will confess though that my previous favorite was my Minolta 50mm/1.7 with Maxxum 3Xi although Nikon D3100 with this 35mm/1.7 is much more silent and DSLR increased the low light capability much more.

The 35mm f/1.8 G is a great addition to any amateur or enthusiasts bag. It´s sharp, small, takes up little space in the bag. Minor issue flare shooting a sunset the other night, but was shooting into the setting sun and it cropped out. For the money, it´s hard to find a reason not to buy this lens.

Purchased to use for low light photography indoors (preferably without flash). Am extremely happy with the results so far. Excellent quality/price ratio.

You don´t have to spend fist full of dollars to get a lens that is fast, quiet, sharp and clear. This 35mm lens will out perform any other competitor´s 35mm.

It will be even harder to find once people realize its performance.

This lens is incredible! For a ridiculously low price you get a super sharp lens that reliably produces excellent images even in low light! This lens is on my D90 camera 90% of the time. If you own a DX camera, you need to add this wonderful lens to your camera bag!

Just bough this lens in March 28-2011 this is a fast lens, taking pictures at very low light condition and sharp but disappoints is, I thought it was a wide angle one but it not, oh well

This is an extremely light and easy to use lens. Pictures are crisp and it works great in low-light. Tried it on my D7000 and D200. Love this lens.

Pros:
1. Performance for cost is excellent
2. Nice that it has focus override
3. low geometric distortion
-

Cons:
1. pretty noticeable chromatic aberration (red/cyan) when used wide open. Close down to f2.5 to eliminate it.
2. High f stops in my sample result in about a 1-stop underexposure.
-

Summary: I´d buy it again in a heartbeat,as the negatives are easily dealt with with PP and attention to what f stop one is using.

Great lens for overall photography! Typically what is attached for most outings. Great for low-lighting, nature, and general portraiture. Definitely recommended!!
