Pros: Sharp, light & compact, big value for money

Cons: Nothing relevant considered the price

Opinion: I bought this lens with my first camera (Nikon D200) to have the best value for money. Unfortunately this 35mm lens didn't like my D200 and I was disatifisied by the pictures, especially in terms of colours and sharpness. Since I bought my D90, I gave this lens a second chance and it was love at first sight! I thing this lens delivers the best performance with CMOS sensors. So, if you don't like the lens, consider a problem of machine coupling. Some people says about manual focus ring, as I always use the autofocus (as 95% of people) I just keep on the light hood mounted flipped, in that way I avoid to ruin the body of the lens. For that amount of money, this lens gives you the best value and result! Perfect for learning and having an equivalent 50mm on a dx sensor.

Pros: Price, Performance, Size, Weight, Availability, small 52mm filters

Cons: No focus distance window

Opinion: I believe that Nikon is unique and unusual offering a real option for offering a fastish standard lens solely for DX use - and in them doing so, in a very well performing and quite well made compact package, has made this lens a really big seller for Nikon. Otherwise, we'd only have the Sigma EX, or Art (now) 30mm f1.4, which I was wanting to buy but there are so many of these little Nikons around, I was able to get a mint used one with lenshood, from a reputable seller with 6 months warranty - for just over 100 pounds sterling. That's the price of one Lee filter! There are no issues over image quality, even at f1.8 it is good to go, lower contrast in the corners and edges might make it look less sharp wide open and unlike those Sigma's, the edges always hold up well along with the very sharp centre. And none of those silly back focus issues that seem to still plague Sigma. On the D7000, it is a nice handling package, you can shoot freely and easily and the AF is good, though not lightning fast. Manual focus is OK too. My main gripe - and the reason why I haven't bought one up to now, is the lack of a distance scale. Big deal, eh? Well, if you're shooting stars and want infinity or at night generally and the viewfinder is too dark to focus, then a distance scale can really help, though with modern polycarbonate lenses, the accuracy of marked infinity is often variable. My uses will be for a back up fast standard to keep in the pocket to use alongside my usual standard zoom, for night time city street shots, live music and interiors of churches and such. At f1.8 and focussing from about 2m and closer, there can be a good bokeh effect, it's not the smoothest of blurs but then it's not really designed for such, especially also due to its focal length. One day, I'll buy the excellent Sigma Art 35mm f1.4, to use on both FX and DX, but in the meantime, this cheap and cheerful little lens is a good substitute. I score 9/10, the point taken off mainly due to that lack of distance scale.

Pros: Small, Lightweight, Versatile, Sharp (even too much), F 1.8, metal bayonet, great fun.

Cons: Not stabilized! AF not lightning fast like the last AF-P, sometimes limping in low light and a bit noisy. I repeat: NOT STABILIZED

Opinion: Optics to have in your DX kit, very fun to use. Ideal x compact and light outputs, it is appreciated x the nesting on the whole frame, already good at f1.8 that becomes excellent aperture a little. F1.8 that becomes indispensable as well as fun in low light conditions (paying attention to the pdc that is reduced a lot, better to use the unwritten rule of hyperfocal). 50mm equivalents are excellent x portraits set, where it shows off an excellent sharpness and a good bokeh, but too long in case of landscape that can be solved by composing panoramic shots. The only real big con is the lack of stabilizer, which is also missing on DX cameras forces you to use shutter speeds not less than 1/50 (better 1/60), sometimes nullifying the excellent brightness at f1.8 rising alas ISO. Rated 9.5 considered the very popular price of the new. A best buy !

Pros: price/performance ratio

Cons: nothing taking into account the Pro

Opinion: I use it on 1V3 clearly equipped with FT1, it performs well in most situations (and conditions). Given the new 170 Euro, the excursion 1,8>22 (3,5>14 gives the best of itself) with a little attention (and malice) does what it has to do and does it quite well. Lightweight, compact and reliable AF and also right in docking times as long as the light remains at acceptable levels.
