As title, looking to buy a prime lens for my d90 as i found 50mm f1.8 is too tight for crop body.
Anyone had use these two lens b4? any recommendation?

HI,
the 35mm f/1.8 is Dx. Do consider the 35mm f/2. Slightly 'slower' as not AFs, but you mount the 2 at f/2 under the same condition, you will notice the Fx lens just might give you an edge over the Dx lens.
Needless to say both are sharp lens.
24 f/2.8 = 36mm on Dx. Nice outdoor but too cram in Hdb group shots. If you want a wide a wide prime, buy the 20mm f/2.8. Its phenomenal.
I tested all, 35 f/1.8, f/2, 24, 20. Got the 35 f/2 and 20 f/2.8. Totally changed the way I see things. They are all goo sharp and Contrasty lens.
Cheers!

Thanks to all. yup, i'm consider upgrade to d700. Perhaps 24mm f2.8 more suitable for me as i normally set my 50mm to f2.8 and 20 f2.8 is out of budget.. is the issue with 35mm f2 solve?
35mm f/2?
Oily Diaphragm blades??? That was long solved years back. I don't know any other issues. Make sure you get the ones with the circled arrows and the 10 inside.

To comply with Japan/ National Recycling standards, all lens produced, sold after 2006 will have the symbol. Also, no more Silent Wave Motor print, but SWM on the lens.
