Review on Nikon 35mm f/1.8G Auto Focus Lens for Nikon DSLR Cameras - Black (Model 2183) by Trn Quc Qun  (Trn Qu ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I'm very happy, it really is worth buying.

Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX is my first fix. I decided that if the camera is already "initial" (Nikon D3000), then the optics will be for beginners. Only this wonderful lens is quite an "adult" ! Yes, it’s by no means a top glass, but the lens is quite good in terms of image quality and build quality. The first photos from him led to children's delight (before that, only the whale was 18-55). I was looking for a fast lens for comfortable shooting indoors without a flash. The most affordable light zoom would cost about 2 times more. Why 35 and not 50? Everything is simple here. I sorted successful shots (with a whale) by FR - I most often used FR around 35. In fact, such a focal length is very convenient - as you see, you shoot it. At 1.8 depth of field it is very small - I had to get used to it. On an open aperture, the image is soft (well, someone will say "soap"), sharp somewhere from 2.8 -3.2. Only AF misses were disappointing, in poor or artificial lighting (about a quarter of all shots are discarded for this reason). On the street - everything is in order. Someone complains about chromatic aberration - there is, but very good. minor, corrected instantly in lightroom, as well as small geometric distortions. I won’t recommend it to beginners precisely because of the “adult behavior” of the lens - first you need to understand what depth of field is, master at least semi-automatic modes, and then you can switch to this fix. Summary: if you understand the difference in modes A, S, M, you want to get the most out of your amateur DSLR - this lens is a must-buy. Moreover, now it costs more than adequate 7t. Rub

Pros
  • - luminosity - price (bought in a well-known online store, with delivery to my city it turned out something about 8) - light and compact - metal bayonet - versatility
Cons
  • - autofocus misses in low light conditions - creepy to put / remove the hood (the force on the latch is significant)
