About the Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G
The Nikon AF-S 35mm f/1.8G lens is a great choice for everyday photography. Its large maximum aperture gathers lots of light so you can use faster shutter speeds to "freeze" moving subjects. It's also perfect for shooting crystal clear photos indoors — without using a flash. And the lens' compact, lightweight design won't weigh down your camera bag.

Features
Overview: This lens has a fixed focal length of 35mm. It is optimized for use on a Nikon DX-format camera with an APS-C-sized image sensor, and provides an equivalent focal length of 53mm. It can also be used on an FX-format (full frame) camera in DX-crop mode. With a maximum aperture of f/1.8, this lens works well in low-light conditions.
Built-in CPU: The lens has a built-in CPU which allows it to communicate with the camera body for focus and exposure functions. A set of CPU contacts is located on the lens mount for interfacing with the camera body.
Auto Focus: Internal Focus (IF) provides fast and quiet autofocusing without changing the length of the lens, retaining subject-working distance through the focus range. Nikon's Silent Wave Motor (SWM) enables ultra-high-speed autofocusing with exceptional accuracy and super-quiet operation. The manual/auto focus mode switch allows quick response to situations requiring manual focus operation.
Aperture: Because there is no aperture ring on this lens, the aperture must be set on the camera.
Diaphragm: The lens is equipped with a fully-automatic, 7-blade diaphragm that produces a rounded aperture. Out-of-focus images in front of or behind the subject are rendered as pleasing blurs.
Optional Accessories: Compatible optional accessories include 52mm screw-on filters; including circular polarizing filter.

If you have a nikon DSLR and you want to shoot in low light your cameras ISO adjustment and lenses that have VR are a help. If you want to maintain a high shutter speed, you need this lens. Your camera must be the DX format. I use mine on a D40, it works great.
