nikkor 35mm f1.8

BillLee · 11-05-2009, 07:37 PM

hopefully i'll have some time tomorrow to get some better shots.

CJW · 11-05-2009, 07:42 PM

well....I am jealous! I think I like the 3rd one the best. It took me a bit to figure out exactly what I was looking at!

boo photobucket!! haha

scollins · 11-05-2009, 10:07 PM

Nice!

I need to add a really fast prime to my collection. Was thinking the Sigma 50mm f1.4, but the price on this 35mm is hard to pass up. I'm just trying not to buy DX-only lenses anymore....

**Vudoo4u2** · 11-05-2009, 10:29 PM

leica noctilux 50mm F .95!! me wants...

NYG8GT · 11-05-2009, 10:41 PM

Wow, Im definitely getting this lens now. I cant believe those are with a D40! Hopefully tax time treats me good this winter lol.

to clarify: the contest awards a 1.8, not 1.4 lol (although, I wish you were right)

Thats great man! I love the lens to death. Its my newest and is quickly becoming my most commonly used lens. Enjoy!

Yeah, I could do that, but the 1.8 isn't that expensive to begin with, so it isn't the cost keeping it out of the bag. I'd rather have the Sigma or the Nikkor 50mm AF-S version, both 1.4's, and both about 4 times as much as the 1.8.
