    The 35mm focal length closely matches a 50mm lens in the FX format. This is perceived to be a natural lens as it provides an undistorted angle of view that is similar to what the unaided human eye perceives.

    "Normal" lens for my D-300

    This is my "go to" lens on my D-300. The field of view is similar to the normal lens on my old 35mm film camera. I also like that Nikon included the soft case instead of making me purchase it separately.

    I'm so glad I got this lens. I have two kit lenses, which are great for everyday use. I'm currently traveling so I wanted to reduce bulk. This has been the perfect size & easy to use with my Nike D3400.

    We own two of these, one for each of our cameras used for wedding photography. The focus is lightning fast, accurate, and completely silent. It’s a great value for low light shoots!

    These lenses are very compatible with crop sensor DSLRs and I absolutely love pairing this with my D7100. You're really able to get vivid colors and clarity in almost any lighting condition with this versatile lens.

    I love this lens. I used it for the first time for a weekend Campout with my kids and the photos turned out great. All outdoor photos. Tremendous clarity on the subject with a subtle blur for the background.

    Looking for a inexpensive lens faster than the one that came with the camera. It is fast but photos appear a bit washed out. Jury is still out on this one. Best Buy transaction was flawless and shipping was very fast. I always look to Best Buy instead of Amazon for all that I can.
