Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G Standard Lens: Whether you're a beginner or professional, you'll love this compact, lightweight lens from Nikon. The normal angle of view captures approximately what the human eye sees, making it a great all-around lens. Plus, the f/1.8 maximum aperture is ideal for creating softly blurred backgrounds and shooting in low light.

Must have lens
on July 12, 2016
Posted by: Jibs
If you own a DX camera, then this is a "must have" affordable lens. Excellent picture quality very similar to the 50mm 1.8. I love this lens for its sharpness and comfortable focal length.

Snap stunning close-ups with this Nikon AF Micro-NIKKOR 1987 macro lens that features a CRC (Close-Range Correction) system to ensure fine details are captured, even when focusing as close as 8.7" away from your subject.

I have tried the 105mm VR macro before getting this. Even though this may not get you as much a 105mm would, this is still an excellent lens comparing the extra dollars you be saving with this. I have compared the macro capabilities in low light and was impressed with its abilities. I would recommend using this on a FX camera as it would serve you as a all-round lens.

Nikon D7100 DSLR Camera Body: Open up to a world of finer detail with the Nikon D7100, designed without an optical low-pass filter for impeccably-detailed image and video capture. The 1.3x crop mode gives you extra reach from your lens without sacrificing the high resolution quality, and the 51-point autofocus system locks onto your subject for incredibly fast response times. Whether you're a semi-professional or a skilled photographer upgrading to a more advanced DSLR, the lightweight and compact D7100 will keep your creativity on the edge.Memory card sold separately.

If you are looking to take pictures as a beginner to a serious enthusiast, this camera serves you all what you need. I got this used with low shutter actuations recently for my wife, and I am very pleased with its performance. It almost has all the features of my D750 except that this is a crop sensor.

I had to return my first piece due to it being having a very tight twist to get it mounted. Unlike my other lenses, this lens would mount, but with lot of pressure. I had to return it fearing that it would damage my camera. Have no issues with this second piece. Took a few shots inside and it seems to do what its supposed to. I love the 1.8 aperture which produces this nice bokeh.
Even though this is meant more for portrait purposes, I am planning to take some outdoor shots soon hoping it won't disappoint me.

Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24–120mm f/4G ED VR Standard Zoom Lens: An excellent everyday lens for busy professionals and serious hobbyists, this lens has a broad focal length that ranges from wide angle to telephoto with near-macro capabilities. Its versatility makes it useful for event photography, such as weddings or outdoor sports. Vibration Reduction helps produce clear images even in low light.

Got this along with my D750 included in the kit. This is a awesome lens you can carry around for pretty much most of the tasks. The constant f4.0 does an excellent job from wide to zoom in for any light situation.

How does this lens work on a DX camera?
This is for my Nikon D5500. I see it can be used for both DX and FX cameras. I want to know how this lens will affect the image on a DX camera?
You would be able to use this lens on your 5500 without any issues. This is a normal lens on a FX camera, but on your 5500 it would act more like a 75mm lens, which still is very good range for portraits.
