Nikon Af-S Dx Nikkor 35 Mm F/1.8G Prime Lens for Digital SLR Camera (Black)

This Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX lens produces sharp pictures and great color and contrast. It is also perfect for portrait and other general purposes . This lens also produces nice bokeh. The picture quality and bokeh quality are very good. Overall, this is a very versatile lens. Being a prime lens (this 35mm lens), you will need to move your feet a lot to compose your picture.The big plus with this lens over the older 35mm lens is the AF-S feature which is auto focus system that is internal to the lens, very fast and very silent. This lens will please a lot of people who currently own D40, D40x, D60, D3000, D3100, D3200, D5000, D5100, D5200 and D7000, as they now can benefit from the autofocus. Another big win is the manual override on autofocus mode (M/A mode), which will allow us to change the focus without having to change the mode to manual modeHere 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 focus, internal focus, and very silent)2. M/A mode (manual focus override available on autofocus mode)3. Very fast lens (f/1.8)4. Very sharp pictures5. Great for sport/action photography (though you might need more zoom)6. Great for indoor and low light situation7. Great for portrait8. Bokeh is almost as good as many expensive Nikon tele-lens9. Perfect for low light with no-flash event. However, 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 can get the Nikon 50mm or 85mm prime lens or 70-200mm f/2.8 VR lens).10.Very fast and very silent focus.Cons:1. Being prime lens, you need to move your feet a lot to adjust/compose3. No VR. As VR will be useful for taking handheld shots on low light

Very cool and useful lens for the daily life photography. Awesome performance. It becomes a must lens for my Nikon D3500. There are manual and autofocus modes. I prefer to use manual focus which is working perfectly. Happy for purchasing it.😎

I bought this product from a seller called Daffodils Electronics for Rs.8750. Good packaging and safely sent in around 8 days. Though the product was dispatched the same day it took 8 days to receive because it was sent by India post and I am really not sure as in how much care goes in handling these delicate items. One star minus for this.Overall I got the product in good condition within a sealed box packaged nicely and yes with Nikon warranty. The lens has the tag made in China and box says Tokyo so not sure from where it's manufactured or what are the technicalities. I have 18-140 which is made in Thailand.Coming to the product usage: I found it excellent in terms of bokeh and shots in low light conditions. Pictures are crispier though not a huge difference when compared to my default 18-140mm on d5300. But I will have to test this in various other scenarios. I found the images a little out of focus in few shots so you need to be careful while focusing or choosing right shutter speed to avoid shake and focus at the right area. Incase you have 18-140 which is a very good multi purpose lens I would suggest to hold on and only spend if you got the money or you are a PRO. Rest all assured as excellent.

Camera Body - D5100Having used this lens as my only lens for over 2 years, I can say that this is the best f/1.8 lens you can get for general street photography. I didn't take the kit lens 18-55mm with my Nikon D5100. Instead I picked this one.The lens build is decent and it comes with a 52mm filter groove. It also contains a lens hood to take care of sun flares. I keep a Hoya UV filter attached to the lens all the time to protect the glass of the lens. It is an AF-S lens which means it comes with a AF motor built in and will auto focus on the Nikon D3xxx, D5xxxx series cameras. If you own a D7xxx series camera, a D90 or an FX camera, you might look for the cheaper 35mm f/1.8D lens that doesn't have a built in auto focus motor.Now coming to the picture quality, it's nothing short of amazing. With the large f/1.8 aperture, you can capture photos in low light even though the AF tends to struggle a bit under very low lighting conditions (you can fine tune that with Manual Focus Override). It produces decent bokeh at f/1.8 and is very sharp at around f/4. The lens comes with a switch to toggle between M/A (Auto Focus with Manual override) and Manual Focus.If you're confused between the 35mm f/1.8 and the 50mm f/1.8 and own a DX camera body (the models mentioned above), I would suggest you go for the 35mm which would give you a decent Field of View for general use and can be a great carry-around lens. With the 50mm, you can take better portraits but for general usage and group shots, you will have to step back quite far. If you're a portrait shooter, then blindly go for the 85mm f/1.8.Attached are some sample images taken with this 35mm f/1.8 lens with Nikon D5100

I've had this lens for just about a month and I couldn't be happier with it! The Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G gives you a lot of quality for a little bit of money. I'm shooting with a Nikon D3500 DSLR and I have to say this lens is quite a step up from the kit lenses that came with my camera.The Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G Len has great clarity and the auto focus works very well. It's relatively fast to focus and shoot with. The manual focus works well and the focus ring moves smoothly. It's versatile close-up and far away, but remember, this is a prime lens so there is no zoom. You have to do any zooming with your feet by moving to position your framing and your shot.This lens works well in low-light situations with the ability to open the aperture up to F1.8G. It's easy to control the depth of field and creates a nice bokeh (blurred) background for professional looking photos. An example of blurred colored lights is attached.This lens is great for portrait or product photography and it's very good for landscapes too. The other attached photos examples have only a minimum of post-processing, mostly to adjust exposure and highlights, but they are a good example of the quality this lens offers for its price point. The lens is small and light and it's become my "go-to" whenever I'm shooting pictures. It won't weigh you down carrying it for a day of shooting.Remember, depending on your camera, this lens may not shoot as a true 35mm - on my camera's cropped sensor, it shoots the equivalent of 50.2mm. This works well for me for the various types of shooting I like to do. I really can't give a list of pros and cons since I have no experience with another similar lens (it's my 1st prime lens), but I will say that so far, all I've seen are "pros". As an amateur photographer, it's a nice step up from kit lenses.I don't hesitate to suggest this lens and I would purchase another. Thanks for reading my review and I hope it help you to decide on the lens that you really think will work for you.

Todo depende de tu estilo de fotografía, pero este lente de 35 mm es muy versátil y un paso adelante del lente Kit que vienen las cámaras cuando las compras. Es un angular fijo o prime, lo que significa que no tiene zoom (algo que para algunos puede no gustar) pero su luminosidad (obturación) de 1,8 y calidad de imagen, lo hacen una estrella al precio que tiene. Además te obliga a preparar mejor el encuadre y moverte, algo que siempre beneficia al resultado, pero como dije es tema de estilos. Con él puedes tomar fotos en bajas condiciones de luz sin subir el ISO o velocidad, en retratos te genera un buen “Bokeh” (no al estilo de un teléfono, pero muy bueno). Es DX (Aunque sirve también para FX) por lo que en cámaras De sensor recortado no te hace el cambio de distancia focal que es 35 mm. para cámaras de la serie DX (ej. 3500, 5600, 7200, D500) Para los que toman vídeo su enfoque es rápido y silencioso una gran ventaja. El enfoque puede ser automático y manual, un detalle importantee, si es que quieres enfoque manual solo con tocar la rosca el lente reconoce que quieres hacer tú el ajuste y se desconecta automáticamente para dejarte trabajar sin quitar el ojo del viewfinder. Viene con tapas en los 2 extremos y una bolsa tipo gamuza para protegerlo. Te sirve para street photography, retrato, vacaciones y foto de eventos si es que no te importa acercarte a la gente. No lo recomiendo para deportes o naturaleza.Temas a recordar:1.- No es un lente zoom solo es de 35 mm.2.- Si quieres comprarle accesorios o filtros (como polarizador o ND) , la medida del lente es 52 mm.3.- Para video su luminosidad y enfoque silencioso son ideales.4.- ¡Excelente calidad de imagen!

A compra foi ótima. A lente é sensacional! Como tudo o que a Nikon faz. A relação com o vendedor foi perfeita. Entrega e segurança nota 10.

I’m pretty new to photography but felt it was time to upgrade from my kit (18-55mm) lens. I bought this as it was a) a cheap prime lens and b) I had heard it was good for general photography and portraits. I think it’s fantastic and excellent value for money and has really helped me develop as a photographer. It’s excellent for general photography and especially portraits. I love using it for street photography in particular. The large aperture of this lens really allows for a great control over depth of field and is also really useful in low light or indoor conditions. I have found this especially useful in practicing and improving my photographic skills. It produced really high quality photos and I’m really happy with it. Highly recommend.The lens also comes with a hood, cap (obviously) and storage pouch. The hoods great when shooting outside and can be neatly stowed in reverse down the body of the lens when not in use which is great for saving space and not having loose things lying about. The pouch is great for storage and whilst it won’t help in the case of knocks and bumps is great for a little light protection and protection from the elements and things like dust. The lens also has a great autofocus that's both accurate and swift which is really really useful when photographing. It won't go super close to the lens, you'll need a specialised macro for that, but does a really great job for all other parts.The lens is great, in my opinion, as a bit of a general lens to keep on the camera. It’s useable in a wide variety of situations and is quite versatile. It’s also incredibly light weight and compact meaning you will barely even notice it’s there. Great for when you’re just carrying your camera around (such as on holiday) or exploring.As this is so cheap and also high quality i would really recommend this to beginners looking to up there game and learn a bit more and improve. I certainly have. The wide aperture really helps in developing your understanding of the exposure triangle and to play about a bit to really learn by doing. I’m still improving and have a long way to go but this is still proving valuable some time on and I believe I’ll be using it for a long time yet.Overall: 5 stars! Would award 6 if I could. Absolutely excellent bit of kit that comes at a great price.If you found this review in any way useful or informative I’d be really grateful if you let me know by hitting the “helpful” button below :)
