Doesn't look any different than most fixed focal length lenses, which is normal. It's great to see Nikon adding to its DX arsenal.

So, if this is truly a DX-only lens, will anyone want to try it on a FF body?

Unless one is shooting a D3X, it would be pointless when there is still the 35 f/2 that can use all of FX's pixels.

WHAT?! I kind of like it, but...no distance scale? Where did that go?

That's a thing of the past my friend (just like the aperture ring) . I doubt many people use them nowadays anyway.

I am trying to find Nikon's MTF charts for 35/2 so I can compare them against ones for 1.8 and I can not find them. Does anybody know where they can be found? Thanks in advance!

Looks promising! My credit card is ready to pre-order.

I will be holding out to see whether 35/1.4 is coming.

I think I'll stay with the 35 f/2. It is a good little lens and has gotten me some keepers.

God Bless,

7 blades and not 9?? one negative, no ED glass, negative.. This lense should be priced under 300 dollars.. Id be more interested in the 1.4 version. If the price is right, then i see it as a good buy. But the fact of 7 rounded blades and no ED glass, it should be cheap

What a waste in DX mount only.

My D60 can't wait for this bad boy to slide into her and give her a click and pic.

What do these tell you about the lenses? I always wondered and never knew how to read them. It would be nice to know.
