Lens-making is an art--Nikon artisans craft Nikkor optics from the finest materials, taking pride in adding their intellect and technique to bring the world's finest lenses to life. They push the leading edge of lens-making in their effort to provide the "glass" that makes the world's greatest pictures.
AF Nikkor lenses work with Nikon SLRs for optimal performance, even the very latest. The Nikon 35mm f2D AF Nikkor is a compact, lightweight wide-angle lens constructed with superb optical design for architecture, wedding, and landscape photography. It features 62-degree (44-degree with Nikon DX format) picture coverage with edge-to-edge sharpness. The perfect lens for the photographer on the go, the fast f2 maximum aperture makes this ideal for low light, hand-held shooting. It also weighs an exceptionally light 7.2 ounces and boasts a 0.85-foot close focusing distance.
Nikon Super Integrated Coating ensures exceptional performance
To enhance the performance of its optical lens elements, Nikon employs an exclusive multilayer lens coating that helps reduce ghost and flare to a negligible level. Nikon Super Integrated Coating achieves a number of objectives, including minimized reflection in the wider wavelength range and superior color balance and reproduction. Nikon Super Integrated Coating is especially effective for lenses with a large number of elements, like our Zoom-Nikkors. Also, Nikon's multilayer coating process is tailored to the design of each particular lens. The number of coatings applied to each lens element is carefully calculated to match the lens type and glass used, and also to assure the uniform color balance that characterizes Nikkor lenses. This results in lenses that meet much higher standards than the rest of the industry.
Distance information
D-type and G-type Nikkors relay subject-to-camera distance information to AF Nikon camera bodies. This then makes possible advances like 3D Matrix Metering and 3D Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash. Note: D-type and G-type Nikkors provide distance information to the following cameras: Auto exposure; F6, F5, F100, F90X, F80, F75, F70, F65, F60, F55, F50, Pronea S, Pronea 600i, D2 series, D1 series, D100 and D70s/D70. Flash control; F6, F5, F100, F90X, F80, F75, F70, D2 series, D1 series, D100, and D70s/D70 cameras.

This lens isn't for everyone however. If you have a DX (cropped) sensor camera you probably should get the 35mm f/1.8 AF-S DX lens. This lens is designed for the smaller digital sensors and provides a bit wider aperture. It's a great lens for people with cropped sensors and you won't get much out of the full-frame 35mm f/2 lens over the DX lens with a DX sensor. The 35mm f/2 lens is really ideal for people with full-frame DSLRs (FX) and 35mm film SLRs. The DX lens also is quieter focusing and has an internal focus motor, which some Nikon cameras need.
This lens may also overlap with many other lenses if you've already got a collection of lenses including other wide-angle primes and zoom lenses.
If you do get this lens also make sure that your camera has an internal focusing motor. Unlike many of the newer AF-S lenses, this lens does not have an in-lens focusing motor. This means many Nikon digital SLRs, particularly entry level models, can't auto-focus with this lens. You can still use the lens with manual focus. If your camera does have an internal focus motor, like most 35mm SLRs and higher-end DSLRs then you'll have no problem using this lens!
I'm not sure this lens is one that people absolutely 'need', but it's fun to use, decently priced, and has good results.
I bought this primarily for when I need to travel light, and was accepting the fact that it may not be as sharp as my other "premium" lens, but having tried it out in the last couple hours and pixel peeping on my mac, I don't feel that I will be sacrificing any sharpness with this lens. At least that is my opinion as a "non-professional" photographer.
The aperture is crystal clear and works really well with the larger light options, such as the 2.0.
Since I got this lens, it has only been off my D800E for my Lensbaby lenses and optics.
Great option for less money.
Size and space needed is minimal and ideal for travel, even in a coat pocket.
Enjoying the landscapes available with this economical lens.

Cercavo un 35mm da non "svenarmi" per la mia D610, perché col 50 ero spesso un po' troppo lungo soprattutto per lo street, e mi sono imbattuto in questo 35mm del quale ormai ci si è dimenticati.
Leggerissimo ma non troppo delicato come può sembrare, veloce nella messa a fuoco, non troppo rumoroso e con una resa come dicevo "dal sapore antico" che non assomiglia ai moderni obiettivi che puntano tutto sulla nitidezza maniacale, colori morbidi spesso tirano a sfumature pastello, buon bokeh.
Da ricordare che non ha motore interno per la maf, quindi se non si vuole fuocheggiare a mano necèssita di un corpo macchina con motore interno, ma essendo per full frame nessuno dovrebbe avere questo problema.
Consigliatissimo per chi vuole uscire leggero e non rincorrere l'ultima novità, poi le ghiere numerate sono veramente bellissime.
The most obvious point is that the lens is very good, with a wide light range, and it is light and comparatively small and therefore very convenient. A good quality zoom lens on the end of your camera looks good and probably is good but can probably be a little unwieldy at times.
