I have a lot of love for this little lens, so it is high time it had a thread of its own.

Not a popular lens anymore I guess huh? I finally bought one of these and tried it out today for the first time. Looks like a keeper so far. Like new copy from the local shop. I would like a hood for it though.

These are my son doing target practice in the back yard, with the big pellet gun. I put the first one thru a vintage filter the rest are LR basic tweaks.

Nikon HN-3 hood is what I use. It is solid, cheap on ebay, and all metal.

I ordered that hood from Japan for $14, should arrive by Fall

As for the lens, I took it on a trip recently and used it quite a bit. The verdict is I'll be keeping it. If you read the reviews, everybody will tell you to avoid this lens at all costs. I don't get it this is a good lens. Even Thom Hogan says the DX 35mm is better (on DX anyway), I think the f/2 D is clearly better.

I still have one that I've owned for at least 20 yrs that I seldom use any more but it's a good lens. They are known for oil on the blades. I had mine cleaned twice. To avoid the oil from creeping onto the blades stop the lens down completely and store it face down. It keeps the blades oil free.

Here's some bokeh from the 35 f/2. It gets ugly and un-round fast as you stop down, so best when consumed wide open.

I just ordered one a few days ago (still waiting to receive it).

The beautiful pictures you all posted are reassuring.

I think I am getting a bit bored with all those perfect and optimized lenses. Anyawy, these small and light AF-D lenses, together with my D750, cured me from mirrorless GAS
And slightly imperfect glass gives something different to the images.

That lens is one of my favorites. Mine went to three continents and shot more that 50 weddings. I never hesitated to shoot wide open. I'll have to dig up some photos.

Some images from the 35mm F2 AF-D. I have since sold it for the 1.8G, but I'm thinking about going back. Image quality on the new one is improved but focus speed is quite a bit slower in bad lighting.
