Your analysis of the 35mm 1.8g is spot on....The 1.8g, which I have, is sharper than the 35 1.4 (which I rented), and the simgma 35mm 1.4 which I rented also. The sigma was not as quick to focus as the 1.8g. Also everyone is running to sigma, which I guess is a personal choice, but the sigma is more expensive, and heavier than the 1.8g. The 1.8g produces very sharp, excellent images both at low light and well lit scenerios. I think the 1.8g is a steal for the cost and a hidden gem....great video....
Shame you stopped doing these videos. I like the quality of your video and dialog a lot. With some more shots over the dialog to highlight what you are talking about this channel could be one of the best out there. At the same time I totally get it. It's near impossible to keep up with the rat race especially since established content creators get all gear delivered to review and often can launch on release. That's something you can never compete with. And buying and renting becomes very expensive very quickly =l
I use the Nikkor FX 35 f/1.8 G with my D600 and D800 and I'm pleased with the results although I wished it had VR. I also use a Canon 6D and 5Ds and the 35 f/2 IS and I think the results from the Canon lens is slightly better.
Do you mind to share the 1.8 ED focus ring manual focus is better than sigma 1.4 which is very hard or tight when pulling it? I used to 24-70 nikkor without vr focus ring is very light to pull. The reason is when it attached on my Crane 2 gimbal, without shutting down gimbal i would like to change the focus. In this case, the Sigma is very firm to pull and make the gimbal move. Hear from you soon...thank you
Okay Hello everyone, newbie here. I have a question but its on another topic because I’m kinda confused on the answers I’m getting on the internet 🤷♂️. Its all about dx lens on dx body camera/ aps-c. Example i want to know if i put 35mm f/1.8g DX on dx camera(eg. D5600) will i get exactly 35mm or 52.5mm? I think i will get 35mm but the answer on the internet is confusing me, please help.
i like the 50 coz of the bokeh is better and i like the 85 mm more then both problem is with smaller space when you need to get more distance from the subject then 85-50 mm are not practical for use.... however 85 mm is dope... 50 is very good.... about the review it's nice i would recommend you put the pictures you toke during the talkin coz it's will make it more officiant. thanks for the video i will stick with mine...
EVERY lens that you put on a DX camera will crop to 1.5X, it doesn't matter if its a dx or fx lens, the same happens the other way around, if you put a 35 dx lens on a full frame camera it will be a 35mm but with heavy (or not so heavy) vignetting (although some cameras detect that these are dx lenses and automatically crop the image, you need to go to the menu and disable this)
+peasant vasea I still own and use the X100T regularly. They're different cameras - the X100T is small, light and discreet. This 35mm on something like a D750 is excellent for low light AF and nice defocused backgrounds.

The 35mm fx is my go to lens. It is so versatile. My 50mm is excellent, but 35mm gives a wider view and it makes all the difference.
Nice video. Very helpful. I just purchased my 35mm today and I am loving it!
+Sanchez Murray Thanks! The 35mm is a super useful and excellent lens. You'll love it!
Excellent Video Paul. It really helped me confirm my decision in going for the f1.8 vs the 1.4g. Thank you!

I do also use a d750 and an x100t :-) Excellent combination.
Sold the 35mm 1.8 FX and got the Sigma 35mm 1.4 though.
35 1.4 has NCC glass, which is why it wasn't mentioned on the ED glass
Thks for the review 🙌🏼

If I use this ED lens on a Nikon D5600 which is DX format, is it possible?
yes, but it will be more around 50mm.
Man thanks for the explanation good review
Thanks for the review, cheers!
better than tamron sp 35mm?
i like the 50 coz of the bokeh is better and i like the 85 mm more then both
problem is with smaller space when you need to get more distance from the subject then 85-50 mm are not practical for use.... however 85 mm is dope... 50 is very good....
about the review it's nice i would recommend you put the pictures you toke during the talkin coz it's will make it more officiant. thanks for the video i will stick with mine...
so when we use it with a crop camera that 35mm will be 35X1,5= 52mm? or still 35mm?

I have this lens and love it when I shoot wide angle. I usually shoot from 85 to 300 mm.
Well, what happened with the X100T?

Hello
Is it worth to use the ED version on dx camera (nikon d7200)?
On dxomark it says its 5th sharpest nikon lens on dx so i was wondering the same
would it fit a d3200?
annekays1 yes
Very informative. Thx
Wow! a 10 years older lens is inferior over a new lens because of technology and science, like what? like more plastic inside? lmao!
Why are you so rude?
