Nice to have a 35mm lens that work for my full frame D850, makes a big diffrence compared with my old 35 mm DX lens.

Outstanding sharpness and color rendition at all apertures on my D800e!! Would definitely recommend this lens to any Nikon owner seeking an outstanding 35mm f1.8 lens. I had the f1.4 version of this last year and find the 35 f1.8 to be much superior.

I'm so happy with my lens. This is the first time using Adorama and it was easy to navigate. My package arrived in the time frame I was expecting. Packages brand new and I love my lens. I needed a 35 for smaller spaces and larger groups it's been doing me great.

Since I switched to photographing weddings with prime lenses, I needed a good 35mm. Even though this is JUST a 1.8, it still creates beautiful imagery and you can't go wrong. Highly recommend!

Light, compact, perfect walk around lens. I also own the Nikon Z 35mm, and while love that lens, you will get by just fine with this one. Remember that sharpness is not everything, especially if you do things like portraiture.

I love this lens as a "standard" as it's sharpness and IQ are on par with the 50mms, but it has a little more field of view. This 35mm outperforms my older 35mm f/2D by a little bit and the build quality seems to be a step up. The AFS might be a touch slower than the old D lens, but the ability to manually adjust focus at any time is a bonus. (The 35mm f/2D is no slouch though, and some prefer its very compact size and light weight. I sold mine when I got the newer f/1.8G) I have the 24mm f/1.8G, this 35mm f/1.8G and the 50mm f/1.8G and find them each to be very impressive lenses.

This is a fabulous lens! Incredible sharpness all the way into the corners. Compact, light weight, fast aperture, and a versatile angle of view. At f/5.6 you can't beat the sharpness of this lens. Also great color and contrast. All of this goodness at a modest price. I use it as often as possible on my D850.

Adorama promptly completed my order and sent a conformation with shipping information. Delivery was on time, packaging was great, and the lens arrived in excellent condition. 35 mm is my field-of-view choice for landscapes. The FOV is wide enough to reveal how I see what I want to capture yet narrow enough that the image tells the story. Because the lens is compact and light weight it is comfortable to take anywhere. This AF-S Nikkor 35mm f1.8G lens is versatile, fast to focus, and I look forward to using it for Milky Way, star trails and other night photography.

Amazing quality for the lens as it is. Looks like cheap but the quality of the build is on spot. The lens creates beautiful bokeh and for the price its a hood competition for other high ends if you dont mind the difference in between 1.4 and 1.8 unless you have a great eye. The gifts are ok most likely will only use one or two of them.

Bought this lens kit to go with my Nikon D750. I was upgrading to a full frame camera and this has been a great starting point for me! It?s been great out in lots of different lighting and environments. I would recommend it to anyone starting to upgrade to a full frame and more professional lenses.

Cannot beat this package. I found the same pricing for this lens without the kit. By far the best package online.

Same price as lens only so a good deal. It shows a Tiffen filter, mine came with a Pro Optic uv instead. I would have preferred a Tiffen (USA) filter.

I actually had problems with this lens, maybe that was a bad luck. I shot with Nikon D 800. I made several attempts of street photography session with this lens. Almost half of them were not sharp. Then I used this lens with Nikon D7000, but the result was the same. I had to return the lens, which I am very sorry about.

Love this lens! I haven't taken it off of my camera. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a good wide angle lens.

Fast focusing, crisp-clear details and amazing results. Very versatile lens. I use it for environmental portraits, mostly and so far I've been getting very good results. Highly recommended. I haven't tried the filter kit, though, and they don't feel too great but that's an uneducated guess.

Pretty much as expected based on reviews. Construction feels a little 'plasticy' but results are sharp and colors are good. Wide open the bokeh can be pretty "nervous" with high contrast backlighting. But for 1/3 the price of the 1.4 and the weight benefit, it's a solid choice.

I considered getting the Sigma Art version however I have focus issues with my 50mm Sigma Art and heard about the issues with the 35mm. This lens does the job and for a good price!

I purchased this lens as my first prime for use with my very first DSLR. I’m still new to the DSLR game but am loving its responsiveness and clarity for every day use.

I use this lens on both a D750 and D700. It has edge to edge sharpness when stopped down, but is still incredibly sharp wide open. There is slight vignetting, I don't see it as a deal breaker since that is easily corrected in post. It feels solid and dense in the hands. It is a plastic lens, but it still feels like quality material. The only thing is I believe Nikon doesn't need to charge ($) for this lens. I would feel it should be priced more around $400, but is still a good value compared to its 1.4G big brother, which costs three times as much. If you can't afford or don't really need the 1.4, this lens is almost as good, and you can't really beat the value comparatively.

Very good lens for everyday photography
By Haruna
This lens is very sharp, create beautiful background blur and is outstanding when shooting in low light. It works perfect for me to shoot pictures in a bar at late night, at such situation, it works way better than my 16-35F4, highly recommend if you need a small, lightweight lens for everyday photography, especially in low light.
Excellent lens for availble light images
By Anonymous
Most of my work is photojournalism. I just received this lens and ran it through the paces and made comparison images with my Nikkor AF-S 17-35 2.8 ED lens with each lens at 2.8, high and low ISO. In my opinion the resulting images were excellent. On a job I used it exclusively for a number of shots. The work was shot wide open and down to f4, all excellent images. Lightweight, quiet and spot on focus. I have always found a 35mm lens to be pretty much perfect as a "normal" lens.
Compact, fast FX-format 35mm prime lens that excels on Nikon's high-resolution HD-SLRs.
Unleash the power of your high-resolution Nikon HD-SLR. The AF-S NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G ED draws maximum definition and image quality from Nikon's high-pixel-count image sensors for truly dazzling photos and HD videos. It brings the outstanding optical characteristics of AF-S NIKKOR 35mm f/1.4G to Nikon's f/1.8 FX-format prime lens collection, which includes 28mm, 50mm and 85mm versions. With 63 Degree of coverage, ED and AS glass elements for outstanding contrast and minimal distortion, Nikon's innovative Silent Wave Motor for fast, quiet, precise autofocusing and a lightweight, compact design, the AF-S NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G ED is an outstanding choice for your photo or HD video applications.
Versatile 35mm focal length with a fast f/1.8 aperture
On an FX-format Nikon camera, a 35mm lens approximates the angle of view we see with our eyes, an ideal perspective for so many photo and HD video applications. The AF-S NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G ED combines that natural perspective (52.5mm equivalent on DX-format cameras) with an f/1.8 maximum aperture for outstanding depth of field control and low-light performance all in a compact, lightweight design. Capture vibrant natural looking photos and HD videos with softly blurred backgrounds, even in low light.
Optimized for high-resolution Nikon FX-format HD-SLRs
A great lens draws peak performance from a camera, and the AF-S NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G ED is no exception. Impressive on Nikon's FX- and DX-format D-SLRs, it delivers consistent, superlative performance, even in tough shooting situations. Aspherical (AS) and Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass elements combat sagittal flare at wide aperture settings. Super Integrated coatings (SIC) enhance contrast and color and nearly eliminate ghosting, even in backlit scenes. And Nikon's innovative Silent Wave Motor (SWM) uses ultrasonic waves for fast, accurate, quiet autofocusing.
The final piece of Nikon's versatile f/1.8 FX-format prime lens collection
The AF-S NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G ED completes Nikon's versatile collection of advanced f/1.8 FX-format prime lenses, joining the 28mm, 50mm and 85mm versions.All four lenses offer the latest Nikon advancements and optical design characteristics, providing consistent performance at each focal length: wide-angle, standard and medium telephoto.
