    Awesome lens

    Posted by Shots in the Light on April 16, 2011

    I have been absolutely in love with this lens. It´s simple, clear and easy to use. The f/1.8 feature does wonders for shooting live music shots in dim lighting. It´s light to carry and has replaced my standard f/5.4 lens. It´s been a lot fun to use.

    An absolute Best Buy

    Posted by G. Karl on April 16, 2011

    When I decided to add a prime lens to my new D7000 purchase I wanted a fast lens that would not exceed my budget. The 35mm 1/8 is the perfect additional lens aquisition. This lens is the world´s best buy for under $200. I used it 3 weeks ago at the wedding of my best friends son. Great photographs. I took 200 pictures and believe at least 100 of them are of professional quality. I have shared the photos with many members of the family and I look like a pro.

    I was driving up a country highway last week and pulled over to capture an incredable sunrise. I cannot believe the quality. Anyone with $200 to spare must but this lens. You will never regret the purchase.

    Remember when Normal was standard?

    Posted by Historic on April 16, 2011

    My first real lens of choice was a top brand 50mm 1.4 on an early good auto-metered slr. If I was smart my shots were sharp. Over the years I was bewitched by the options provided by a range of zoom lens. Today, with this Nikkor 35 mm f1.8 on my D300S I have rediscovered the pleasure and control obtainable with a really good normal lens. Now this is the lens always on my camera and the big zoom only comes out when truly needed.

    great lens

    Posted by Pat-tographer on April 16, 2011

    this is another great lens that will give you great results for all types of photography especially portraits, but this lens is listed in the wide angle category I think this is a mistake because it´s not a wide angle lens so as long as your not expecting a wide angle lens when you buy this one you´ll be very pleased, if you want a wide angle then you´ll have to buy a different lens

    A must have!

    Posted by Hornpipe on April 16, 2011

    I added this lens to the 18-200mm VR II that I use. While I use the zoom lens for travel and outdoor photos I wanted a lens that was faster for indoor and portrait. In using this 35mm 1.8 with my D7000 I rarely have to use a flash. For $200 this is a steal and a must have for every DX user.

    A must have for DX cameras

    Posted by Div on April 15, 2011

    This lens becomes 50mm lens for DX cameras which makes it a normal lens. Though a prime lens requires you to move a lot while composing the shot but on the positive side photo quality and bokeh are better than a zoom lens.

    This is the most versatile, low budget lens for a DX-camera.
