Even better! 1 ft is very good for a 35, IMO.
I have been tempted by this lens for a long time, and you have just pushed me over the edge...
...but, I will wait to see your HH. I have a feeling I might like it better.

If you take out the focus-stop screw, the 35 1.8 will focus down to about 6 inches(!). I did one of mine that way. Very cool, near-macro quality. I haven't tried the MD (yet) but have 2 HHs I converted (and one I haven't converted yet), they are a great lens. Complex conversion but doable.
1.8 makes it one of the fastest 35s out there, esp. @ reasonable prices.

Dim.ka_, you should try the Nikon 35mm f1.4 AI-S on your SD14. It has amazing bokeh for such a wide lens:
And I've just discovered thats its really good for nightshots on the SD14 too:

Thanks Alf for another 35 alternative, but think i have found what i really like
Some more MD 35 1.8 snaps - it is really good for close up shots, but overall i like tiny size and impressive perfomance.
all f1.8

Really cool shots, Dmitry. I especially like the leaf on the car. And the first flower shot further up is also beautiful. Seems like a fun lens, worthwhile your efforts!

Dim.ka - nice stuff! Thanks for posting. Good to see I am not the only one enjoying this lens (though I have the MC not MD)
