The perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

Great lens. Small, with a beautiful picture. Light. Cheap. Fits well as a regular. But! We must be aware that this is a fix: it is worth taking it only if you want to experiment creatively at small apertures, and being completely sure that this focal length is suitable. Some pros: - Sharpness, in comparison with whale 18-55 at equal apertures, details are worked out much better, microcontrast is quite good (due to better resolution), sharpness at the edges of the picture at small apertures…

I am satisfied, the purchase is quite successful.

For a beginner amateur photographer with a DX camera, this is a great lens. Some even put it on full-frame cameras and, despite the vignetting, were pleasantly surprised by the result. Examples of my shots with it: 35mm f 1.8g af-s dx nikkor Pros: - Sharp in moderation - not bad for portraits (especially half-length ones). - High-aperture. Allows you to shoot indoors in daylight and artificial light without a flash. - Relatively versatile due to the focal length (on crop - approx. 52 mm).…

A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

I bought it for trips to nature, it iscomnvenient, the weight and dimensions of the camera have noticeably decreased. And besides, we have winter for most of the year, the polar night and the lack of light iscommpensated by the aperture ratio of the optics. The picture from it is very sharp, thecomlors are bright and natural. Photo examples: ? page=0 ? page=0 ? page=0

Pros
  • Aperture, included case and lens hood, high-quality assembly, metal mount, light weight and size. Versatile 35mm focal length for everyday shooting
Cons
  • Probably only the lack of a stabilizer, if it can be called a disadvantage.

The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

For adequate money, a great thing for shooting indoors, portraits, you can macro, outdoors - with features. Black objects in focus on a bright background with an open hole arecomntraindicated. In general, a great thing for a reasonable price for getting high-quality photos in many situations. Examples: ? page=0 and further ? page=0

Pros
  • sharpness, aperture, washes gently (if anyone needs it), the price is quite normal, a beautiful picture is obtained, fr is convenient on the DX crop.
Cons
  • XA - too big (on an open aperture), AF sometimes smears, there is no stub.

Great value for the money, definitely recommended!

I shoot in clubs. On a full frame D600. 35-chka is an ideal option on Fx when shooting in clubs, excellentcomlor reproduction, a gorgeous angle. The price of a penny, shoots gorgeous. The picture is clear, sharp and clean. Perfectly makes portraits, gently washes the picture. On Fx, in portraits, the background is rotated with an annular scale, like the Helios 44 lens. In general, a super lens, by the way there are misses on budget carcasses. Filmed on my budget 3100. mowed. maybe my carcass is

Pros
  • Aperture, fix, glass, price, speed, tenacity, weight, color rendering, Dx=>Fx
Cons
  • Vignetka on Fx, but this is for Fx, there are no drawbacks for Dx. loses quality at far focus, i. E. the ideal picture is only in a portrait to the waist, then the sharpness is an order of magnitude less. but what about photographing people

Mediocre product, probably won't use.

Personally, I tested 2 samples - one and the same trouble - non-tenacious autofocus. When focusing on a table with a tripod, one point givescommpletely different results - either the back, or the front, however, sometimes it hits, i. E. angle is ineffective. What can not be said about the "frontal" focusing - more or less accurate with an average object size. Impossible to focus on the eyelid. Very sharp, does not give a shadow of soft inherent in good lenses - too hard. IMHO for an artistic…

Pros
  • 1 Price 2 weight 3 very sharp
Cons
  • 1 Extremely inaccurate AF 2 big flu 3 bad bokeh

I was surprised by the quality for the price.

For a long time I chose a high-aperture fix. The choice was between 35 and 50mm. Because I shoot a lot of landscapes and often have to shoot indoors, then 50mm. dropped by itself. I took 35mm. and fell in love with this glass. Optimal focal length (52mm on my D5100), excellent image sharpness and detail, good open bokeh - made this lens my standard lens, which I don’t shoot from the camera. Thanks to this focal length, it is verycomnvenient to shoot - as you see with your eyes, the frame…

Pros
  • Razor sharpness and excellent image detail at f / 3.5-5.6. Very good bokeh at f/1.8-2.8. Excellent portraits and landscapes. Fast and accurate autofocus. Silent focus motor. Compact and lightweight. Good build quality. I don't have front/back focus.
Cons
  • Decent chromatic aberrations, which, however, in 99% of cases are eliminated during processing. A little distortion. Not very tenacious autofocus - you need a skill to use, because. you will often miss in the beginning.

Just super, it's beautifully made, I'm very happy with it.

A lens in the purchase of which there can be no doubt if you decide to change your standard zoom to a fixed one. He is universal. You can shoot portraits, landscapes, subjects, etc. Due to the large aperture, the shutter speed is shortened, from here there is less movement and the pictures will be sharp. The fact that the lens often misses, then at an open aperture is not surprising because the depth of field is very small, and your slightest movement relative to the subject will lead to a…

Pros
  • 35mm is a very versatile focal length. Aperture f1.8. Autofocus is fast, ultrasonic motor. High-quality assembly, do not be afraid that it is made in China. Good equipment. The price is good.
Cons
  • Noticeable HA on shiny surfaces. And more like as there are no shortcomings.

This glass works for me in tandem with a Nikon D3100 camera. An excellent fix for little money! Draws well in poor lighting even without a tripod and despite the lack of a stub. Not suitable for portraits, but when shooting in an apartment, you can get quite high-quality and interesting photos. I am pleased with the sharpness. I have been using it for more than a year and even rarely remember that there is no zoom) I definitely advise. Examples of photos:

Pros
  • Aperture, build quality, light, quite sharp, color depth.
Cons
  • None for their price.

The perfect product for any user!

I bought it for children's photography incomnditions of limited space, which are our apartments, well, mine is so for sure))) it’s extremely difficult to use 50 mm / 1.8 in small rooms, you always rest against the wall, but you still have to move away. The lens made me happy. I’m not overjoyed with the d7000, the viewing angle allows you not to go far, the autofocus motor works quietly and does not scare the child, the background blurs well, despite the focal lengths. There are noticeable HA…

Pros
  • price, aperture, weight, autofocus motor
Cons
  • unless ha

A really necessary purchase, I'm glad I found this product.

I am pleased. I use it almost like a staffer without removing it. Sample photos from Nikon D5100 and 7000: landscape: portrait: cats: You can actually watch the entire album.

Pros
  • 1. Soft quiet autofocus 2. Precise autofocus. BUT! On my model there was a back focus, in fine tuning in the D7000 I had to make an amendment as much as "+20". After that, he began to hit perfectly on target :) 3. Aperture. Quite working with 2.2-2.8 4. Lightweight, compact!
Cons
  • Not zoom =)

I'm impressed! Exactly the product deserves your attention.

It has not been possible to really test it yet due to a recent purchase and unimportant weather in my spare time! I doubted for a very long time before buying about the focal length of this lens, I wanted 85 1.8g and sigma 8-16mm but it didn’t work out yet))) After the purchase, all doubts were debunked! The lens allows you to shoot in almost any genre, it is actually universal. out of trouble ha and ofcomurse distortion (acceptable) is still a wide angle, but all this is easilycomrrected in…

Pros
  • Sharp, nice color reproduction, one of the most inexpensive!
Cons
  • ?

Fits the description completely, very satisfying.

For a very long time I chose between him, 50 and sigma 50-200, readcomments, reviews,comnsulted with Nikon owners. I wanted aperture, the whale annoyed me, I even wanted to sell a camera,comnstant adjustments in fsh, sadcomlors and some frustration and swearing at my "inability". I'm very glad I bought it. Amazing quality, although, as much as I was looking for Yaposhka, China is maiden everywhere. But I don't regret it, I really like it. I experiment, Irun home to "play" with it. I'm learning,

Pros
  • aperture, beautiful bokeh, low weight, low price, excellent autofocus and everything, everything, everything that good speakers have written below.
Cons
  • I haven't found it yet, and hopefully I won't. So far, only my crooked pens :) In my hands for only a month, I can’t tear myself away.

Satisfied with the product, I recommend it to everyone.

Great budget prime lens. For more than a year now it has been a staff member on the D5100. Look for flaws in it for its price is not worth it. It was taken as a replacement for 18-55, butcomuld notcommpletely replace it. Sometimes there is not enough wide angle. It performed well at family celebrations, especially when paired with a flash. Well, for landscapes, ofcomurse, too . Sample photos below. ? page=2 ? page=2 ? page=1 ? page=0

Pros
  • Weight, compactness, price, aperture ratio, convenient focal length (for me)
Cons
  • Very strong HA on an open aperture . They are not automatically removed.

I like the product, the quality did not disappoint.

I took it after 50mm f / 1.8G AF-S, because in many situations it was too narrow (I shoot on crop), I wanted to have a wider viewing angle. Well, I'mcomparing. Both of them are neat, miniature andcompact, I have nocomplaints about the build quality. Nothing backlash, no creaks, everything is fine. 35mm is even smaller. The lens hood, worn "in reverse", does not allow you to turn the focus on both lenses, you have to carry the lens hoods separately in your bag. About turning the focus wheel:…

Pros
  • Not very expensive for a 35mm ultrasonic motor. Although, it would be possible to drop the price of interest by 30-40%.
Cons
  • Not weak such chromatic aberrations. If there is a contrasting (not necessarily very strong) object between the object you are focusing on and the background, you cannot do without a wide green edging on it. The rotation of the focus wheel is less informative than on other lenses I have tried. : I'm changing the review to add that autofocus is not so perfect. In poor lighting, it smears catastrophically, in good lighting - a little more often than fifty dollars.

I like it, thanks for the quality product.

Very highly specialized, but does its job flawlessly Great for product photography, 2.8 aperture allows you to focus in low lightcomnditions if necessary The picture iscomntrasting, lively, I like the work of the lens in backlight. Somehow it reminded me of a Sigma drawing with a similar focal length, but, in general, it looks more interesting I can recommend it to those who know what it is for My photos of the Samyang 100mm f/2.8 ED UMC Macro Canon EF lens can be viewed here:

Pros
  • Price, drawing
Cons
  • narrow profile

I am amazed at how well the product is made, just magically!

I bought it, fastened it to the Nikon D3100, tried to shoot. "Well, I bought horror. " - my first thoughts. Soaped in any light, and even if you look at the PC monitor, I wanted to cry. I decided not to give up, I shot from a tripod with a closed-open aperture, with manual and autofocus - the same story. I decided to give it for alignment, but then it turned out that I replaced my D3100 with a Nikon D7000, which has internal alignment. And now the glass has sparkled with all thecomlors - the…

Pros
  • Price. After the whale, the difference in picture quality is noticeable in +
Cons
  • Most instances require adjustment

The worst purchase in my life, dont repeat my mistake

I bought it because Icomnsidered it to be fast, but on an open aperture, in the range from 1.8 to 8, it is very chromate. There is a problem with autofocus, sometimes it misses. specific bokeh. As a result, after a series of pictures from the balcony and acomuple of portraits, I handed it back to the store. I was surprised by the large number of positive reviews, maybe I was unlucky, write if it doesn’t make it difficult. EXAMPLE: ? page=0

Pros
  • did not find
Cons
  • strong chromatic aberration

The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

An excellent lens after the "whale" lens is simply gorgeous, I use it as a staff lens on the d7100, very good sharpness, fast aperture, for narrow spaces it's just an irreplaceable thing on a crop, although sometimes I want a wider angle. The price is quite normal. Very happy with this lens. Landscapes are also excellent. ? page=2 ? page=2 ? page=2

Pros
  • Sharp, price, aperture ratio, compactness, workmanship.
Cons
  • Plastic body but that's more of a nitpick. A little chromate - easy to correct.
