From the Manufacturer


With a compact, lightweight design, the AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G provides the high reproduction capability and picture quality for which Nikkor lenses are renowned at an affordable price. The ring type SWM offers quiet AF operation. Although all lens groups shift during focusing, the front element and filter mount do not rotate and the barrel length does not change, which is useful when using filter mounted SB-R200 Wireless Remote Speedlight units.

Ho acquistato il Nikon Nikkor AF-S DX 35mm f/1.8G per la mia Nikon D5300 e non potrei essere più soddisfatto, soprattutto per l'uso video! La qualità dell'immagine è incredibile: la resa dei colori è brillante e il contrasto è perfetto. Grazie alla lente f/1.8, il bokeh è morbido e piacevole, il che lo rende ideale per creare sfondi sfocati durante le riprese video, aggiungendo quel tocco professionale che cercavo.L'autofocus è silenzioso e rapido. Anche se non è un obiettivo stabilizzato, l'uso con la D5300 che ha la stabilizzazione integrata aiuta a ottenere immagini stabili, anche durante le riprese a mano libera.La costruzione è solida ma leggera, quindi perfetto per riprendere in movimento senza sentirsi appesantiti. Lo trovo molto versatile, adatto sia per riprese in ambienti ben illuminati che in condizioni di luce più scarsa, grazie alla luminosità dell'apertura. Se cerchi un obiettivo di qualità per i tuoi video senza spendere una fortuna, il 35mm f/1.8G è una scelta davvero eccellente!

I’ve used this lens for almost 8 years now and it’s a champ! I specifically love it for senior photos/portraits and Airbnb close ups. I do real estate photography with mostly wide angle lenses but this one gives me the vibe close up/bokeh shots I need to create a mood! It is so versatile and amazing for the price!

I gave 1 star for "image stabilization" as this lens does not have that feature. TBH you don't need it on a lens like this. If your pictures are blurry, you need to look at your camera technique!So what's good about it?The picture quality from this lens is comparable to much more expensive lenses. It is significantly better than most kit lenses that come with DX nikon cameras. It has very low distortion and has a field of view comparable to what you see, so perfect for reportage, travel, landscapes etc.It's also really fast - i.e. it goes down to f1.8 which means you can shoot with a lower ISO and still have a good shutter speed in lower lighting. It also means you can shoot really professional looking portraits with a lovely blurry background or beautiful bokeh if you have christmas lights or such like about 20 feet or more behind the subject. The final comment is that this lens is very small and light, and is now my preferred 'default' lens if i'm out and about with the camera without a specific shot in mind. Being a prime lens, you can't zoom in or out, so you need to position yourself to get the best shot, and that encourages more creative photography I think. Great little lens for the money!

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.

I was looking at getting either this lens or the Nikon 50mm f/1.8D AF Nikkor Lens. The 50mm lens was only $135, but doesn't autofocus on the D40 which is my camera. I know I am looking to upgrade to the D90 soon, so that wasn't as much of an issue, but something to consider as I purchased a prime lens. Of course this 35mm lens does autofocus on the D40, so that was one point in it's favor.Truly my main reason for purchasing this lens was to use in low light, indoors, typically at home during family functions. The photos are sharp! I even 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 subject(s) than with the 50mm, but when you are in a room that is crowded and you are trying to get a photo with everyone in it, you don't have to back up very far. With the 50mm, you need much more room to backup to get the same shot including 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 as well. I would 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 very handy, and paticuallary when you are in a situation where flashes aren't allowed. (I have been at several museums, historical homes during a tour, and even a 50th anniversary ceremony at a church were photos were ok, but no flash allowed). The last wedding I was at, everyone was taking photos and the photographer said that was ok while she was shooting, but no flashes please 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 didn't need a flash.I also had to consider price. I got this lens for $199 with free shipping. I ordered this and waited a little over 4 weeks to recieve it. If you are looking at this lens, and order DIRECTLY from Amazon, the price is $199. It will say "not in, stock order now and we will deliver as soon as available". I didn't really want to wait, especially knowing I could order the 50mm that day, and get it in a week, but I knew if I was to choose between the 2 lenses, I wanted this one. I don't think it is justified paying the $300+ price just to get the one in stock. My opinion, order the one listed at $199, and be willing to wait, like I said, mine arrived about 4 weeks after ordering it.Pros: Absolutely sharp photos in low light. Price, if you are willing to wait, totally worth every penny. Fast and light lens. You can shoot indoors with low light without a flash.Cons: Only one I can think of is waiting a full month to recieve. But I would do it again in a heartbeat for a fantastic lens.
