Great for low light, great focal length for DX, and autofocus will also work with D40, D40x, D60, and D5000 cameras,

REAL NAME

&nbsp,&nbsp,

This Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF S DX lens produces sharp pictures and great color and contrast. It’s also perfect for portrait and other general reasons semi macro etc. This lens also produces nice bokeh. The picture quality and bokeh quality are comparable with the other Nikon prime lenses 50mm f/1.8, 50mm f/1.4, 50mm f/1.4 AF S etc lens which are famous for being sharp. In general, this is a versatile lens. On a non full frame DSLR such as D40, D40x, D60, D5000, D80, D90, D200, D300 etc, this 35mm focal length is equivalent to about 50mm which is regarded as a normal lens normal as to being close to a person eye looking at angle perspective.

Many of us, as well as those who already own the 50mm prime, have been waiting for this lens prime lens that has wider angle than the 50mm for a long time, particularly for non full frame DSLR holders that typically have about 1.5x magnification caused by the smaller sensor size. Those 50mm lens on a non full frame DSLR is equivalent to 75mm which is frequently too much zoom for many situation. As an example in a room where you can not keep backing up to compose your photos, or when taking picture of a group of people where you’ll have to move back many with the 50mm lens. This 35mm lens will crack that problem to many extent as this is many wider lens than the 50mm prime lenses. Having said that the 50mm prime lens is still a great lens. If you do not own any of the earlier variant of the 50mm lens and wondering if you may want to get this 35mm or the 50mm, then I could recommend you to get this lens over 50mm, unless you know for sure that you need more zoom than the 35mm for your function, then you may be able to go and purchase the 50mm or 85mm both available on f/1.4 or f/1.8.

This lens DX lens isn’t intended for a full frame camera FX or Film. There will be light fall off which is quite important. If you have a full frame DSLR, you may want to get the 50mm f/1.4 AF S, or the older 35mm f/2 AF D lens instead.

Being a prime lens this 35mm lens, you’ll have to move your feet many to compose your picture.

While this lens produces sharp pictures at f/1.8, the corner show lower contrast. Sharpness and contrast increases more as you stop down to f/2, f/2.8 and f/4. Sharpness increases gradually after f/2.8 i.E. At f/2.8 looks to be the best, without sacrificing too much speed

The big plus with this lens over the older 35mm lens is the AF S feature which is auto concentrate system that’s interior to the lens, fast and silent. This lens will many of people who now own D40, D40x, D60, and D5000, as they now can gain from the autofocus.

Another big win is the manual override on autofocus mode M/A mode, which will let us to change the concentrate without having to change the mode to manual mode this is pretty standard to most Nikon newer lenses but it is quite new for Nikon prime lens series

This lens doens’t have image stabilization VR, but that’s kind of projected as Nikon also does not include VR on their new 50mm f/1.4 AF S lens. It could be nice to have VR for longer contact handheld operation, and for people with less stable photography technique but it’ll most likely increase the size, weight and cost of this lens.

If you’re wondering if you may want to get a fast lens or a lens with VR Vibration Reduction, here is my take: In in general, VR does help many as it’ll decrease camera shake and will produce better/sharper picture than equivalent lens without VR especially if the object is static. If the object is moving fast sports/action then VR feature alone may not help depending on how fast the object is moving and how much light is available, and a fast lens frequently end up being a far better solution, without VR feature as it’ll let much faster shutter speed to freeze motion. Using tripod and a remote will replacement for the need of VR feature. Overall I could recommend to get a fast lens with VR feature and typically it’s expensive like the 70 200 f/2.8 VR, but if one can only get for one or the other, then learn what do you want to use the lens for , then use the guideline mentioned here.

If you’re wondering if you’ll get the benefit of purchasing f/1.4 lens over a f/1.8 lens, just remember that the f/1.4 lens is about 60 faster than f/1.8 at its widest aperture setting. With this info, you may be able to choose if the extra speed will justify the extra cost. The bokeh is nicer also in f/1.4 lens but I think speed is typically the major factor in deciding if to get the costly f/1.4 lens.

Here are the summary of pros and cons for this Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF S lens:

Pros:

1. AF S AF S AF S very fast concentrate, interior concentrate, and silent

2. M/A mode manual concentrate override available on autofocus mode

3. Fast lens f/1.8

4. Sharp pictures

5. Great for sport/action photography though you may need more zoom

6. Great for indoor and low light situation

7. Great for portrait

8. Bokeh is nearly as good as many costly Nikon tele lens

9. Perfect for low light with no flash event. But, also check out the following lens for low light photography: 17 35mm f/2.8, 24 70 f/2.8, 17 55mm f/2.8, 28 70mm f/2.8 or the the 50mm nikon prime lenses.

9. Great focal length 35mm. About 50mm equivalent which is a normal lens If you need more zoom, you may be able to get the Nikon 50mm or 85mm prime lens or 70 200mm f/2.8 VR lens.

10. Did I already talk about fast and silent focus? :

Cons:

1. Being prime lens, you have to move your feet many to adjust/compose

2. Being a G lens no aperture ring available, this lens won’t work on manual concentrate camera where you have to set the aperture from the lens

3. No VR. As VR will be useful for taking handheld shots on low light especially if the object is somewhat static or if the photographer does not have steady hands when taking photograph

4. Not intended for full frame cameras FX or Film where there will be siginificant light fall off.

Bottom line: This lens is so versatile that I think everyone should own this lens also to all the lenses that they already have even if they alredy have the 50mm prime lens. Being a fast lens, it’ll let people to take action shot in low light that otherwise would not be able to be do. And now, with AF S, there’s nothing to dislike about this lens though I believe, this lens may attract more interest if it has a VR feature.

Happy Photographing!

For $199 is it just hype?,
June 12, 2009

By&nbsp,Thype Portland, OR USA See all my reviews

Being a self proclaimed prosumer I am not exactly a pro, but I’m still calling for when it comes to camera hardware and software for that matter. I talk about this because it puts this review in the correct perspective.

On to the lens.

First off, when a $199 lens comes around from Nikon I have two thoughts, “Right on!” and “Seems pretty cheap for Nikon”. I was cynical but for $199 and all the great reviews why not give it a shot? Well, I did.

Taunted me, B&H teased me, and my local camera shops did not exactly sooth my fear that it could be months before I could get my hand on one. Put a pre order in with all the above mentioned establishments my local store came through 1st and for the same 199 dollar price tag.

I get it home, take it out of the box and the 1st thing that comes to mind is how much heavier it’s than many of the kit lenses I picked up. Yes it is plastic, but the thing has a different level of quality from the other Nikon budget/consumer lenses. You may be able to peruse the other reviews on and other websites for more specifics but the point is there’s a obvious difference.

I then put the thing on my camera made sure to put on a filter first and start snapping away, outside, inside, and everywhere in between. The pictures are great, in low light in specific. The bokeh is not top notch but for anybody but a pro this probably will be worth the tradeoff being the 199 price tag is a big selling point here. And do not get me wrong, the bokeh is not awful, I have just seen better with more much more costly lenses.

So is it hype? Can a Nikon lens selling at $199 be good enough for the more calling for buyers out there? You betcha, this thing is most likely the best and smartest buy I have made in the last five years. I have three other lenses and I can say without any hesitation the 35mm F/1.8 AF S will be on my camera 90 of the time if not more from here on out.

In closing, if you love photography but do not have the means to drop hundreds, if not thousands of dollars on nicer lenses, get annoyed at the fact that low light photography with the kit lens just does not cut it, and want to develop, this is THE lens to get.

I promise you, you won’t be disappointed.

Good luck!

great prime lens for a DX Nikon DSLR,
May 18, 2009

By&nbsp,Joseph Adler Mountain View, CA See all my reviews
REAL NAME
&nbsp,&nbsp,

&nbsp,&nbsp,

I bought the 35mm f/1.8G AF S lens because I wanted a fast, light lens that worked with my camera a Nikon D40x. Since to get the lens two months ago, I have not taken it off my camera. I’d recommend this lens to anybody with a newer Nikon DSLR. If you’d want to know more about my experiences with the lens, read on.

I’m not a professional photographer, or a serious hobbyist. I do not have a big budget for camera equipment my only camera is a Nikon D40x, and usually use my camera to take pictures of my kids.

For the past several years, I have usually used the Nikon 18 200mm f/3.5 5.6 G ED IF AF S VR DX Zoom Nikkor Lens. I love this lens: it is adaptable, and works much better than I projected a lens with that large a range to work. Unfortunately the 18 200mm lens, like many of the zooms that work with the D40/D40x/D60/D5000, have many issues. 1st of all, the 18 200 is kind of slow. For indoor pictures without a flash, it is hard to get sharp pictures. Also, the 18 200 is heavy. It is uncomfortable walking around with a one pound lens strung around your neck.

I bought the 35mm f/1.8G AF S lens because I wanted a faster, lighter lens. I had not tried a fast prime lens in a long time probably not since I shot on 35mm film, and most likely had unrealistic expectations about what a lens like this could do. I hoped that I could just set my camera to auto and snap pictures. With normal daylight, I could take many good pictures inside without a flash. But, there are many practical limitations to what a fast prime on a low end camera can do, I had a harder time taking pictures in dimmer light for example, in an aquarium. It certainly works better than an f/4 lens which is the estimated aperture for most zooms are at this focal length, but it is a subtle difference. I did get many better results by manually changing ISO and aperture settings, but that is not typically practical when you are trying to shoot a moving toddler.

On the other hand, this lens is observably sharper than the Nikon 18 200mm f/3.5 5.6 G ED IF AF S VR DX Zoom Nikkor Lens. I have found it easier to take pictures of people with faces in concentrate and background blurred than I could with the zoom lens. When I bought this lens, I was not thinking about sharpness, but I am usually happy with the results. If you may be able to get the foreground in concentrate, it’ll look sharp.

The one issue I have with this lens is that out of concentrate backgrounds. Look a little weird. Photographers call the look of out of concentrate backgrounds “bokeh.” Most photographers want out of concentrate backgrounds to look subtly blurry, you’d like a point of light to look bright in the center then taper off at the edges. This lens does the opposite: points of light turn look more like rings with this lens. To me, the backgrounds appear like “ghosting” on an old TV. This is not a deal killer, but it can lead to strange results, especially if you are taking pictures of people against complicated backgrounds. I can certainly take pictures with this lens that I could not take without it. But, do not expect a D40 with this lens to do also as a Nikon D700 12.1MP Digital SLR Camera Body Only with the Nikon 50mm f/1.4G SIC SW Prime Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras.

I have not many other complaints about this lens’s performance. It feels as light on the camera as I hoped, it is really nice walking around with such a light camera after lugging around a zoom for so long. The camera concentrates quickly and quietly, like most of the AF S lenses I have tried, focusing is fast and correct. In general, I am happy with this lens especially at half the price of Sigma 30mm f/1.4 EX DC HSM Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras. It is not perfect, but it is reasonably priced and useful.

Nikon 35mm f-1.8G AF-S DX Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras reviews:
Rating: Great Standard Lens for DX Users
This is a really great lens for the low light user that’s pretty inexpensive and light weight. I have had good luck with low light photos of the grandkids throughout plays where no flash photography is allowed but where you need quick pictures to stop the action. Presuming you may be able to get close enough first some number of rows I found that I could get sharp shots after cropping to separate them. Usually, with my D40x I used 1/200s with the lens large open to stop subject motion. The camera usually selected an ISO of around 500 to . Had I used a common zoom lens my lens opening could be around f4 or more at least two stops less light and I could needed an ISO greater than 2000 where the pictures could have greater sound and the sound reduction could create addional sharpening loss. My other lenses, which have VR won’t produce consistantly sharp results under these shooting conditions because they do not open large enough and consequently do not let one to shoot at 1/200s or faster needed for the moving subjects.

This lens creates a compact package with the D40/D40x/D60/D3000 camera and is useful for those situations where you need flashless, quick, low light photography. It concentrates fast, appears well built for the price, and is pretty inexpensive, if you may be able to wait for the lens and not pay beyond MSRP. All you must remember is to zoom with your feet!

Rating: A must have for Nikon DX shooters!
I’ll not rehash the good reviews about this lens: I just wanted to attain important mass, review wise, for Nikon users to realize the wonder of this lens.

I have most likely read most of the same online resources as you guys, and I also bought the 50 mm 1.8 prime as those online reviews stated that it was a cheap and good way to shoot in low light.

I found though that the 50 mm was too much zoom on non full frame cameras mine was a D90 so it ended up to get stuck in the bag. Most of the shooting I doed was indoor parties of friends and families and I didn’t have enough large angle to make it usable.

When I read about the 35 mm, I has been excited that a comparatively inexpensive nikkor lens came out. I ordered off Amazon, and if you may be able to just be patient, they came through for me after six weeks. No have to help the scalpers online. I also want to add to verify with your local store, as mine only tacked on 20 dollars more to the MSRP. Many better than the rip off prices of non sellers here.

Have fun shooting with this great new lens!

Rating: Amazing value for money
I use this primarily with my D90 so it is effectively a 50mm normal lens. I have a 50mm f1.8 too but it becomes 75mm, a focal length I love but the 50mm is more versatile. I love this lens, it is so sharp and produces many amazing photos. Shallow dof if I want it but stops down for capturing complete scenes also. For the money this lens is one of the best deals around today, a must in all Nikon shooters bags.

Rating: Sharp lens, well worth the wait!! Love it.
I looked at to get either this lens or the Nikon 50mm f/1.8D AF Nikkor Lens. The 50mm lens was only $135, but does not autofocus on the D40 which is my camera. I know I’m wanting to upgrade to the D90 soon, so that was not as most of an issue, but something to think about as I bought a prime lens. Of course this 35mm lens does autofocus on the D40, so that was one point in it is favor.

Truly my major reason for buying this lens was to use in low light, indoors, usually at home throughout family functions. The photos are sharp! I had all the lights turned off in the basement and took photos of my son, and WOW,it gave nice, natural tones to his skin and his eyes are amazing in the photos. I have to get closer to my subjects than with the 50mm, but when you’re in a room that’s crowded and you’re trying to get a photo with everyone in it, you do not have to back up far. With the 50mm, you need more room to backup to get the same shot as well as all the subjects. My sisters kitchen is small. My little neice was about to blow out the candles, and I got not only her, but mom and dad in the photo also. I could not have enough room to backup and get the same shot with the 50mm lens.

Being able to take photos in low light indoors without a flash is useful, and paticuallary when you’re in a situation where flashes are not allowed. I have been at some number of museums, historical homes throughout a tour, and a 50th anniversary ceremony at a church were photos were ok, but no flash allowed. The last wedding I was at, everyone taked photos and the photographer said that was ok while she shooted, but no flashes because it intereferred with her shots. Everyone had to stop taking photos, because they needed their flashes to get a decent shot. How nice to be the one able to continue to shoot photos and not have to put my camera away. I did not need a flash.

I also had to think about price. I got this lens for $199 with free shipping. I ordered this and waited a little over four weeks to recieve it. If you’re looking at this lens, and order DIRECTLY from Amazon, the price is $199. It’ll say “not in, stock order now and we’ll deliver once available”. I did not really want to wait, particularly knowing I could order the 50mm that day, and get it in a week, but I knew if I was to decide between the two lenses, I wanted this one. I do not think it’s warranted paying the $300+ price just to get the one in stock. My opinion, order the one listed at $199, and want to wait, like I said, mine arrived about four weeks after ordering it.

Pros: totally sharp photos in low light.

Price, if you’re wanting to wait, totally worth every penny.

Fast and light lens.

You may be able to shoot indoors with low light without a flash.

Cons: Only one I can think of is waiting a full month to recieve.

But I could do it again in a heartbeat for a great lens.

Rating: Real Value!!
After reading many reviews on this lens I decided to get one to see what all the hype was about. I was lucky enough to find one earlier this week and received it yesterday. All I can say is that Nikon struck a perfect balance of performance and price with this lens. It produces beautiful pictures which are tack sharp and have amazing color. One of the great benefits to having a big aperture is lightning fast autofocus in just about any light level. At $199.00 this lens is an very good value by itself. As if that weren’t enough Nikon throws in the case and hood for the lens. This is something earlier only done on much much costly lenses if at all. If you’re thinking about to get this lens, don’t hesitate. Shooting with it’s addictive and the evidence will be the smile on your face every time you look at the pictures it produces. In conclusion all I can say is that me and my Nikon D40 couldn’t be happier with this lens.
