Review on Nikon 35mm f/1.8G Auto Focus Lens for Nikon DSLR Cameras - Black (Model 2183) by Hien Quang ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best product I have ever reviewed, I recommend it to everyone!

I used to use it as an addition to the whale, now it always costs as a regular one. People write a lot about curved autofocus. Here we must remember the materiel. Put any depth of field calculator on your phone, such as DoF Calc, and you will see this. If you shoot an object from a distance of 2 meters, then the field of sharpness is only 20 cm. That is, from the point of sharpness, only 10 cm in both directions. If between the moment of focusing and the click of the shutter you (or the subject) have moved 10 cm, then that's it - the picture is already blurry. And this is not a lens jamb, but just a feature that you need to know. So, for example, it will not be possible to shoot a person on a swing with an aperture of 1.8 in the standard autofocus mode (non-tracking). To make it clear, shooting from 2 meters with cool lenses for FX is generally unrealistic. For example, at 85mm f/1.2, the depth of field from 2 meters is only 4 centimeters! That is, if you focus on the tip of the nose, then the cheeks are already smeared. And if you swung a little, then in general the whole frame is in soap. And what, is it a bad lens?

Pros
  • Lightweight, compact, looks good on the d5100. I took 18-55 as an addition to the kit for portraits, but in fact I abandoned the kit altogether, because in all respects, except for the viewing angle, this 35mm is much superior to the kit. When compared with a whale, the aperture is about 35mm 7 times higher (you can shoot at 100 iso with the same shutter speeds as with a whale at iso 800 under the same conditions), gives much better background blur than a whale, focuses many times faster and more exactly. The percentage of sharp shots with this lens is disproportionately higher than with 18-55, which is actually pleasantly pleasing, because at aperture 1.8 the depth of field is much smaller than at 4.5 (whale aperture at 35mm).
Cons
  • viewing angle. but this is not a disadvantage, but a feature. you just need to understand that panoramic shots will not work. for this you need to have a different lens

After the whale lens, it's nice to open the aperture wider than 3.5)))
