Nearly as versatile as a prime lens can be, the AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G from Nikon is a 52.5mm-equivalent lens for DX-format cameras, and is characterized by its sleek form factor, normal field of view, and bright f/1.8 maximum aperture. The fast design of the lens suits working in difficult lighting conditions and also enables improved control over depth of field for isolating subjects and working with selective focus techniques. The optical design incorporates one aspherical element, which helps to control distortion and spherical aberrations in order to produce notable sharpness and clarity. A Super Integrated Coating has also been applied to individual elements and controls lens flare and ghosting for greater contrast and color accuracy when working in bright and backlit conditions. Complementing the optics is a Silent Wave Motor, which enables fast, near-silent autofocus performance along with full-time manual focus override, to benefit both stills and video recording.

Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G Reviews
Excellet Bokeh, a little stiff mounting and unmounting
I have a DX Nikon camera (D-7000) and purchased the FX 50mm 1.8 lens primarily for the bokeh possibilities and to see if it helped with getting a wider field of view for family gathering photos. I forgot to factor in the 1.5x crop factor for using an FX with a DX sensor so my 50mm is actually a 75mm on my camera. To experiment with a wider angle lens, I go the DX 35mm f/1.8G. It was exactly what I was looking for. I gave it four stars instead of 5 because it is a lot stiffer mounting and unmounting on my camera than any other lens (DX or FX) that I have. I use it sparingly because of that, because of the concern that it might be wearing on parts of my camera's lens mounting system.
Second hand unit
I wanted it for close up pictures, good unit like new.
Main lens
I keep this lens on my camera all the time. Unfortunately, I dropped the one I had since 2014. This is the replacement. So far it keeps being one of my favorite lenses.

Great nifty-fifty lens
I got this for my D5500 camera, and works very well. I recommend it for an additional lens to the kit lenses.

This is a very good portrait lens.
Nikon 35mm f/1.8G Lens
I have used this lens a couple times since I got it, and find that it is a very good lens. It seems the sharpest around the f/11 aperture. I would definitely recommend it to other fellow photographers!

I don't have a clue what took me so long to acquire this lens. It definitely is the BOMB!
