Macro lense is really sharp but autofocus is tricky sometime when you get too close to the subject. 35 mm is really good in low light has awesome focuse and bokeh is stunning.

Two lenses for one great price. Was an excellent purchase and so far I've been happy with the pictures that I've been able to take with them.

I have never had a macro lens, so I'm having a lot of fun experimenting with my new Nikon 85mm f/3.5G macro. My new Nikon 35mm f/1.8G portrait lens is providing much better results than the 18-55mm kit lens that came with my Nikon D5500 camera. I purchased these two additional lenses as a kit, for an awesome savings. I know these are not the highest quality camera and lenses that Nikon makes, but as a beginner, I'm having a lot of fun learning without shelling out big $.

The included Nikon 85mm f/3.5G lens is a good quality macro lens for the DX format. More compact and lighter than its larger Nikon 105mm macro brethren, it is easier to use hand held and still offers vibration reduction while only being about 1/2 a stop slower maximum aperture. It balances well on the DX bodies and the image quality is good as well.
The 35mm f/1.8G lens is basically the equivalent of a standard 35mm prime lens as its effective focal length is approximately 52.5mm. As such it should be considered as a fast normal lens for DX, not a mild wide angle lens.
If you're in the market for a macro lens for Nikon DX format, this kit is a good bargain especially if you already do not already have a 35mm lens as its actually less expensive than the regular price of just the 85mm macro lens alone. Both lenses are packaged individually inside the kit box in their normal retail boxes (not white boxed as the lenses included in some Nikon body-lens kits).

After researching a lot I decided to purchase this lens package because of the reviews and upon receiving and using the lenses I have not been disappointed. I have been able to take quality pictures of my newborn and toddler. The macro 85mm lens has been great for taking close ups of their hands. I would recommend purchasing this combo package as it was the best price for quality lenses.

I wanted to buy this bundle mainly because of the Micro lens. However, the 35mm took me by surprise. I knew prime lenses where better for the quality of the image but I wasn't expecting such improvement from the standard lens my D3400 had. I love this bundle. Now I'm only waiting on the online class to be able to get it for free and I'm good to go.

I bought these lenses and used them as kind of "fun" lenses for a wedding. The macro lens is an absolute piece of junk. It's made cheap, it feels like it weighs nothing and the rubber dial grip is so loose I was afraid the lens was going to lose its composure. The 35mm is a decent lens with great bokeh, but only if you have a DX camera. I MUCH prefer the 35mm on the FX. Overall, good deal for $500 but so not worth it.

Prior to purchasing these lenses, I priced them out separately on different online outlets. I was looking for both a Macro Lens and Portrait Lens for my new camera. This packaged together deal was by far the best deal with the best price! The lenses are awesome!

I love these lenses, and the great price Nikon offered. I've wanted to experiment with macro and now I can....even something as simple as a tomato looks awesome! My husband shoots with Canon and is so jealous that Canon didn't run a similar special.

Got two good lenses at discounted price over the holidays. The 35mm is good for everyday use and the 85mm is good for closeups. As a novice photographer, I'm happy with the results.
