    Product Name: Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX NIKKOR Lens for DSLR Cameras - USA Warranty 2183 NK
    Product Description: AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G lens, is the first fixed focal length, fast-aperture DX-format lens that affords photographers superb image quality along with the creative possibilities and versatility of the classic 50mm focal length . When mounted on a DX-format camera body, it enables photographers to document their world with a lens that produces a picture angle similar to the field of vision as seen through the human eye. Whether new to D-SLRs or a seasoned enthusiast, users will appreciate the extreme low-light performance and the expanded ability to dramatically separate the subject and background with the new 35mm DX lens' wide f/1.8 aperture. Lightweight, compact and affordable, this lens can easily become a fast favorite for any level of photographer, and is the perfect complement to D60 users who are just starting to learn D-SLR photography or enthusiasts who love their D90. The AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G lens is ideal for travel, general photography, landscape shooting, portraiture or pushing creative boundaries. The stunning sharpness, clarity and color reproduction are all proof positive of more than 75 years of NIKKOR heritage and experience in optics engineering. This lens continues the tradition of NIKKOR precision optics to provide photographers with sharp, high-resolution images and the ability to focus as close as 0.98 feet, while the integration of an ultra-compact Silent Wave Motor ensures fast, whisper-quiet AF operation. The 35mm DX lens construction consists of eight elements in six groups, with one aspherical lens to reduce size and weight, while contributing to the enhanced balance when mounted on a smaller DX-format D-SLR. A rounded diaphragm opening combined with the seven-blade aperture contributes to a substantially more circular bokeh for a more natural appearance of out-of-focus background elements. Additionally, instances of lens flare and chromatic aberration are suppressed using Nikon's exclusive Super Integrated Coatings, which also help ensure vividly accurate color balance.

    Would it be worthwhile to purchase the 35mm 1.8 and get a lens converter (not the manual one) for a Sony E mount? Are the substantial drawbacks to this? I have seen the lens converters for less than $100 on the used market, and so this would make a pretty good deal, allowing future expansion.

    I don't think there is a ton of value to that... the Nikon lens isn't some special 35mm. I'd stick with native glass unless there is some special lens you want.

    No, the cheapest AF adapter is the commlite for $200 unless you want MF. AF is spotty and len's compatibility is hit or miss. Not really worth the trouble when native Sony/Sigma/Tamron/Samyang selections at there rival and exceed most of Nikon's glass now. Sony GM and Sigma ART lenses are some of the best in the market while Tamron and Samyang offer excellent entry to mid level value lenses. Native will allow you to shoot with full potential for your body such as FPS and AFS-C eye focus. Unless you already have a huge collection of Nikon glass, don't buy a system just to adapt lenses from another system.

    After spot-checking a handful of them, I believe Amazon is price matching Adorama (or all authorized Nikon dealers are running the same pricing). The difference is Adorama might be pairing theirs with a "Free Accessory Bundle".

    Hmm, contemplating the 10-20mm for a family trip to Yellowstone this year. Anyone use this WA lens for family trips to national parks? Currently using a D7500 with an 18-140 and wondering if I'll get better shots with the 10-20mm. Any experience with the above let me know.

    I'm interested in the 50mm 1.8 lens, but looks like it comes up at a lower price on past recent deals. Think I'll wait for a better deal.

    If i can suggest you to buy used. I recently sold my D5600 + 50mm f1.8g for $480 , and the 50mm typically sells used [good condition from local sellers for $80 *thats how much i paid* excludes the filter kit and software set]

    Good idea, but where do you usually buy the used ones from? After months of watching Craigslist, I never found a good deal on lenses there, at least in my city.

    Really want the 35 mm. Anyone see it go any lower. Don't want to wait, may have to get this.
