Customers are saying

Many appreciate its low light performance, ease of use, and lightweight design, making it a great value for the price. Some users have noted occasional autofocus issues. Overall, the lens is well-regarded for its ability to create a shallow depth of field.

    I own the 35mm as well, so naturally my curiosity got a hold of me during a $20 discount. Taken lots of beautiful bokeh photographs with this lens!

    I got this lense to add to my Nikon kit I purchased from BestBuy. Works great for portraits and blurring the background. I am not a pro photographer but I wanted to get better pictures than my phone.

    I would say that for the $$$ this is a truly great lens. One of the sharpest of Nikon's offerings, and even sharper than the more expensive 50mm f1.4 lens. No regrets.

    Great for the blurred background effect and for the price. Doesn't zoom out obviously so you have to be further away from the subject of you don't want such a close up shot. But all around great lens.
