| sent on 15 Dicembre 2025 Pros: Construction, small size, color rendering, pleasant blur, not too contrasty, it costs little but offers a lot. Made in Japan Cons: It will certainly have cons but they are negligible given the cost Opinion: My favorite focal length, recently found new by chance. I use it on a d750. Probably if I would have had a d850 I would have taken a 35mm 1.4g - 1.8g afs as you know that this lens was designed for film cameras. It's a shame that they don't make afd lenses anymore I love them, for the yield, robustness and compactness If I have to find one thing that I don't like, it's that when it focuses the front part moves |
| sent on 24 Novembre 2025 Pros: compactness, weight Cons: General yield, field curvature Opinion: One of the few lenses that I didn't really like from Nikon. It certainly does its duty in what it is designed for but in the digital world it does not perform at all as well. The optics have a rendering with closed shadows, contrasted and with cold colors. The curvature of the field messes up the "planes" when it focuses in the center and recomposes. I don't feel like criticizing a historical perspective, I'll just say that on digital 45mpx it doesn't have great performance as on film, if you then happen to try the 35 1.4 AFS.... |
| sent on 22 Gennaio 2021 Pros: Size and weight, construction, color rendering, blurry Cons: Vignetting and f2 coma, extreme angles even with closed diaphragms Opinion: I was missing a 35, the market offers many solutions on this focal but both for an economic discourse and compactness of the lens itself I opted for this small 35 af-d f2: the colors are beautiful and the lens is not contrasted and micro overthused (it goes well with the sensor of my ds3), the blurry also interesting; I was hoping to use it better at f2 but the lens is sober with obvious coma at this opening and must be closed at least 2.2-2.5, all in all it is not a drama, at 2.8 it is sharp for 2/3 of the frame without vignetting but in landscape use the extreme corners are always a soft hair even with closed diaphragms, on the other hand the difraction is not excessive and tolerable even up to f16; I do not know how it behaves on densest sensors but on machines such as d700 or d3s I definitely recommend it; p.s. attention to field curvature, using the center and recomposing is not good with this focus lens. |
| sent on 15 Maggio 2020 Pros: Performance/Price ratio Cons: seen the "Pro" there are no "cons" Opinion: I use it with great satisfaction on both D800 and 1V3 (with F-Mount) and on both always behaves very well! On the D800 in most cases even better than the AF-S 35-F/1.8G that was sometimes lent to me. The AF is good, it's not lightning and it's driven by the engine machine. On 1V3 of course only MF, it becomes a nice 94.5mm that can also be exploited for macros to the limit with PK11A and PK13, and in the right light conditions, it is capable of Macro of good quality and rendered especially in the range 100>200 ISO and F/2.8>8. On the D800 I personally recommend using it at F/2.8>3.5 while at F/8 it is perfect, especially for a better rendering of colors/lights to "edge" as well as for almost-zero vignette. Distortion bearable as well as it happens also AF-S 35F/1.8G, as well as for the vignette that from F/2.8 onwards I think in PP it is quickly corrected. On D800 up to 800 ISO is very good and between 100 and 300 ISO is perfect! It quite supports the sensor of the D800. Adorable and "credible" Bokeh. With 10/15 Euros you will have a lampshade. I think I have summed it all up already in the Pros/Cons and I add that (I don't say that!) to really and sensibly better you have to spend almost three times what this AF-D costs. Finally because of his I will no longer sell the 1V3 on which he does really nice things, and on the D800 he behaves much better than 35 other very expensive that when tried did not convince me of the cost-performance ratio! I'll take other AF-D because it convinced me that maybe my taste appreciates the "retro" but perhaps more realistic rendering. |
| sent on 30 Agosto 2018 Pros: Sharpness, chromatic rendition, unclosed shadows, excellent construction Cons: Vignetting at F2 Opinion: Taken recently, what about my D700 an excellent lens, clear already from the maximum aperture, colors and shadows excellent, I find the construction better than the versions G, small and light is not pointed out too, the only point neegativo, if you can say so, is the Vignetting at F2 But it corrects well in the post, in short for those looking for a 35 and does not want to overtake, this is really a must, I highly recommend it. |
| sent on 11 Aprile 2017 Pros: -a ratio unbeatable quality / price; rn-fast focusing, even in the manual dial is liscissima; rn-light, easy to carry. Cons: a hard lens hood to find (if you really must find a counter). Opinion: Optics bought at the suggestion of a friend. It is ideal if you are tight-a with a 50mm, which was my case. On many occasions, I approach a bit 'too much too often I was pushed into the scene and with the difficulty 35mmf2D no longer appears. It is much more natural set a picture / a scena.rnA yield level, maybe goes to tastes and personally no problem. If I were to go out with a single optic to take to a street event, it would be this. |
| sent on 16 Novembre 2016 Pros: Size, performance, sharpness, quality / price ratio Cons: For me against NO. Opinion: I 35 1.8 G but soon after I changed it (too contrasty and sharp hyper for my taste) with this little gem. rnNitido already af / 2, pleasing blur, delicate tones like all the D series (at least for fixed). Quick AF does not miss a nice colpo.rnSe used to reportage or ambientati portraits you can have fun as never before with results really notevoli.rnE 'perspective that should never be lacking, I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a high yield with little spesa.rnrn |
| sent on 25 Marzo 2016 Pros: Photorealism. Clarity. Cons: Personally nothing... maybe the screw hood, but metal. Typical aberrations of the AfD. Opinion: A lens that gives great shots, both on FF and APSC: Clear frames, pasty and with the typical colors of Nikon D-series. AC is also typical, and this 35 is not immune to it, however it behaves better than the 50 F 1.4 D, at F2. I use it indiscriminately on both formats, and for both color and grayscale photos, with great satisfaction. It does not cost very little, but certainly less than the version G F 1.8, but it is more aseptic, as a general yield, and my opinion too contrasty/sharp. Small, lightweight, with less ' rough ' character than the 50 F 1.8 AfD. A beautiful object that lends itself to all uses, from Photoreportage to portraits set. |
| sent on 26 Gennaio 2016 Pros: All Cons: Nothing Opinion: simply sublime! both for construction and for optical yield. No defects !!! very good opening, bokeh, resistance to flare is good, almost no distortion, for manual street goes a sword but the AF is not evil. There I am fine, I do not take off virtually never out of my D610. I do a landscape? It works. I want to do street? I do not need anything else. Portraits ?? Well, it takes me a minimum of environment but the result is quality. really really nice !! |
| sent on 19 Dicembre 2015 Pros: light, crisp, good quality / price ratio, minimum focusing excellent Cons: for me nothing Opinion: focus that is also covered by my Nikon 20-35 f2.8, but I wanted to try, found used with metal hood at 190 €, held as nuovo.rnMi am fine light, very incisive an all fare.Su D700 is an optical truly versatile lends the portrait set to paesaggio.rnLa series d is very well chosen, use the 35-70 and 80-200 f2.8 de I am benissimo.In effects this 35 is a perspective that I think is a must in a corredo.Consiglio purchase to all those looking for a 35, good quality and spending ridotta.Non looks good next to my Nikon fixed 15-24-50-105 and 180, makes his figure with a very cost contenuto.rnSe used on 5.6 to its maximum as incisiveness, 2 is slightly soft, but from 2.8 grows. |
| sent on 08 Ottobre 2015 Pros: incision, contrast, compactness, minimum distance of focus Cons: vignetting, bokeh Opinion: Not by chance is the lens (replaced by 35 1.8 DX for APS - C) that still uses the periodic TuttiFotografi to detect in the laboratory of Nikon cameras. Of course, it is fixed focal length and have a rather simple optical scheme helps achieve clarity, but the micro-contrast that I found on this objective exceeds all my most optimistic expectations. It 'a micro-contrast "hard", it tastes like that of a macro lens, and I like a lot, as possessor of Rolleiflex T with Tessar. Even the tonal contrast is crisp, just more suffused with wider openings. Bokeh (the slats are seven and not rounded) is a bit 'nervous but not annoyingly structured. Vignetting is pronounced on a 24 X 36, with the obvious reduction of DX. Reduced size where you feel even less loss of sharpness at the edges, knowing that the image circle is not reduced us to see those extremes. But as Ryuichi Watanabe MTF does not say everything about a lens we are in the presence of alens whose etching the situation in another world, higher than the performance of many zoom, and vignetting is a phenomenon that can be used for artistic purposes, not to mention that diaframmando af 8/11 for a landscape even these limits are convincingly exceeded. A lens by the amazing quality / price ratio and the focal very versatile for a variety of situations. |
| sent on 23 Maggio 2015 Pros: Light, crisp, af mechanic but still fast Cons: Honestly I can not find Opinion: Optics really versatile, allows beautiful close-ups using a bokeh after more than decent. I do not mind at full aperture (d800 and unforgiving). My copy with the d800 does not even have problems f / b focus. I keep it very mounted as a handyman. Wishing they do portraits, street and landscape as well. In short a focal length in the basic kit. |

| sent on 16 Maggio 2015 Pros: Light crisp af fast price Cons: NOBODY Opinion: I gave him 10 because as the whole series af-d (which for me is the most successful) and excellent build quality af fast the lens suffers from chromatic aberration of any type (unlike other profiles with horrible green purple) I have not noticed in more flare and has a metal hood quite sturdy, lightweight and compact lens I use it as all do (on ff), closed 5.6 is perfect, very resolute detachment I hardly ever (I photographed everything My trip to London) .lo recommend |
| sent on 23 Gennaio 2015 Pros: Quality / price ratio; Building, Weight / minimum footprint. Cons: AF older and slower than the new releases. Opinion: I shot with this lens, mounted on D90, for almost an entire 3-week trip in Madagascar .. without hardly ever change it. And I found great. There is no doubt that the quality that offers amply repay the approximately 200 Euros which are used to buy it used. At f / 2 is actually a bit 'soft .. but by f / 2.8 returns already recorded images and with a touch "Nikon old style" magnificent. To do reportage is exceptional both for its size (you can bring to the subjects without intimidating), both for the weight (take him anywhere without effort), both for the construction, especially if you care mounted its original metal lens hood (you can slam anywhere and he did not bat an eyelid). The blur is not what the cousin 50mm f / 1.4 D (the only other optics that use now), but it's nice and still head and shoulders ahead of the zoom from kit.rnL'unico flaw in my opinion is the AF .. we are talking about a perspective of several years ago and technology has made many strides. For the kind of photography I do is commonque more than enough. With the lens hood I have not had any particular problems of flare .. just not going to cercarselo all costi.rnHo tried a couple of times the new Nikon 35mm f1.8 G .. there is history: the new will be even higher charts in hand, but in practice there is no game we are on two different bands. The 35mm f / 2 lens D has higher quality, is built better, has a blurred more pleasant, is indestructible .. and in fact after years and years worth more than a used version of the new G. rnrnPer Finally, a "must have" if you find it in good condition and at a good price take it! |
| sent on 22 Gennaio 2015 Pros: Lightweight, compact, solid metal, quality / price ratio, made from f2 to f11, for ff Cons: af quiet Opinion: I mount on d300, I like a lot, bought used and maintained well, it is a lens that is used every day. despite zoom bulkier, this little guy is defended very well for the small size and weight with a focal length that can be exploited in various fields (Street, narrow landscape, portraits) and that makes it very well (except claims space) as sharpness and slightly saturated colors. to f2 may be slightly soft but still very well defined. 2.8 onwards begins to grow in denifizione, between 5.6 and 8 from the best. the blurred in f2-2,2 not evil, indeed in the portraits to the children from that special touch mixed with the softness. has no af lightning, to experience with children, which sometimes put him to the test. riding around town, wanting to stay light is a great ally that little is known but gives much. I mount the hood do not hardly ever, and the flare according to taste or pleasure can no.rnpotrà pleasure like no, but it is a lens to experience a once in a life-nikon, deserves the trust. |
| sent on 20 Settembre 2013 Pros: Small light bright economic Cons: flare made to f2 Opinion: To think is unbeatable value for money although of course you can not expect that it is excellent at full aperture, but for what it costs and the convenience that you have to carry it around in my bag I can not miss a Nikonist used from f4 onwards is great but I had sold it to me've taken another. |
| sent on 11 Giugno 2013 Pros: Light weight, excellent resolution, compactness, appropriate price Cons: feeling, but incorrectly, perhaps by the lightness of fragility due to those accustomed to the heavy professional lenses like me ... Opinion: As I said above, the weight of the optical depth. tiring with time, especially in the photograph the street. The 35 f1, 4, according to friends was quite heavy, and after f5, 6 / f8 made as the 35 in question. A friend of mine made me try it and when I saw the files on my PC open with Nikon view2 tripped the spring. Moral of the story, I saved more than a thousand Euro is the rendering challenge anyone to find the difference (resolution) between this compact and professional f2 35 35 f1, 4 ... |
| sent on 02 Ottobre 2011 Pros: very compact, bright, af fast, crystal clear to f8. Cons: suffers from the flare, better to use the lens hood Opinion: Lens Compact, light and a high value for money. I use it on fx and is fixed which is good in every situation because it has a focal length of the boundary between the normal and wide-angle, step back a step forward .. small not to the eye, light for low-light scenes, from the best between f8 and f11 where it is crystal clear. Colour rendering typical of afd, so vivid, a little creamy but very pleasant in my opinion. A consoglio, use it with the lens hood protects the front lens and avoids the possible flare that sometimes you notice. |
