Product Description
-------------------
The AF-S DX Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G optical design allows a different
look and feel to images taken with zoom lenses, and its
dimensions are ideal for discrete snaps and landscape
shooting with a picture angle that approximates that of the human
eye. With its rounded seven-blade diaphragm opening, out-of-focus
elements appear more natural. When ed on a DX-format SLR,
the picture angle is the 35mm equivalent focal length of
50mm.what's in the box: Nikon AF-S Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G DX Lens,

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
do not rotate and the barrel length does not change, which
is useful when using filter ed SB-R200 Wireless Remote
Speedlight units.

35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX Lens: Highly Recommended by dpreview.com
The AF-S Nikkor 35mm F1.8G DX is a lens which certainly caused a
degree of dismay on its release, with many Nikon fans
disappointed by the decision to make it compatible with the DX
format only. However the main benefit of that decision is plain
for all to see - even at its introductory price the lens costs
rather less than the venerable AF-Nikkor 35mm F2.0D, despite the
addition of an AF-S motor to allow autofocusing on Nikon's
entry-level D40 / D40X / D60 bodies. It's also less than half the
price of the few other DX format standard primes currently on the
market (such as the Pentax 35mm F2.8 Macro, Tokina 35mm F2.8
Macro and Sigma 30mm F1.4 EX DC HSM), so Nikon has managed with
this lens to produce the first genuinely inexpensive (sub-$200)
fast standard prime designed specifically for digital SLRs.
Within this context, the lens's performance is very impressive.
It produces finely detailed images at all apertures (although
with somewhat low contrast wide open), focuses quickly and
accurately, and handles well in a small, light package. In
particular, it's much sharper than typical DX standard zooms such
as the Nikon AF-S 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 DX VR or Nikon AF-S 18-200mm
F3.5-5.6 DX VR. The fast maximum aperture allows pictures to be
taken hand-held in low light levels, while maintaining relatively
fast shutter speeds to avoid blur from subject motion (a key
advantage over image-stabilised, but slow, kit zooms when
photographing people without flash indoors). The slightly less
tangible aspects of image quality - such as resistance to flare,
and the rendition of out-of-focus regions of the frame - are also
dealt with nicely.
If the lens has one major flaw, it is a certain propensity to
show chromatic aberration, of both the lateral kind (which can be
corrected by the in-camera JPEG processing of the D90 and D300),
and the longitudinal (which cannot). To be fair the latter is a
pretty well unavoidable with a fast prime, but the 35mm F1.8G DX
suffers from it to a rather high degree, and in particular can
give some unpleasant purple fringing effects if you're not
careful.
Overall, though, it seems almost churlish to complain about
these flaws in a lens so inexpensive, which gives otherwise such
fine results. It's good to see Nikon finally addressing the lack
of purpose-designed, inexpensive fast primes for DX format DSLRs,
and we hope they - and other companies - continue with this
trend. As it is the 35mm F1.8G DX is, for its winning combination
of high image quality, large maximum aperture and low price, a
lens which deserves to be on many a Nikon shooter's shopping
list.
