AF-S NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G FX thread

[trd2970]

I'm also waiting for this. Been without my 35 f2 for a while and using 50mms.

I am sticking to my Sigma 35 for now.

sigma 35mm is super sharp sharp sharp... even sharper then 24mm f1.4

Just came across brief picture-comparison with the Sigma here http://inthemistphoto.com/2014/02/15/sigma-35mm-f1-4-art-vs-nikkor-35-f1-8g-ed-fx-on-a-d800/. The Nikon lens is as sharp in comparison or at least sharp enough

And the bokeh is quite soft & dreamy, luscious, seen here http://www.cameraegg.org/af-s-nikkor-35mm-f1-8g-ed-lens-sample-images/

The bokeh is indeed nice, wonder whether the full frame sensor also plays a part? Has anyone tried the AFS 35mm DX f1.8 on a full frame camera shot wide open at f1.8?

Seem like stock is out .

Price slightly less then $700 SGD local set

Sharp enough to justify the extra 300$? :bsmilie: Never mind the Nikon one has zero compatibility issues?

It's funny when that argument gets played up from time to time. :bsmilie:

But yeah, I suppose it's good to have competition once in a while.

The best 24/25mm lens right now is the Zeiss 25/f2 lens, but it's manual focus.

Plus 1.4 over 1.8.
Actually it is cheap for a 1.4 lens.

Well you are the one who brought up the 24/1.4...

 

[Goldfishub]

I check with one of the shop, the 35mm f1.8 fx should be here next week, the ricing likely more than 700...

Did you buy it?

 

[onoz123]

Just checked during lunch, almost all shops have it.
Ranging from $653-690.
Much cheaper than expected, considering US is selling at 600 USD.
