Although I resent the implication that things from the 80s are now vintage, I have to say this lens was a great example from Nikon's good ole days. The build quality on these older lenses is solid and they simply feel very satisfying to use. While maybe not offering stellar image quality, it's certainly adequate and with the added character of a strong vignette while shooting wide open, it's fun without being ridiculously quirky. The one sent by Baker was in perfect shape, almost as though it had never been out of the original package. Focus was a little stiff but I'll take that over sloppy any day. Glass is in great shape with no scratches or fungus. Felt almost like I was back in the 80s!

I bought this to use on my Nikon D-7100. With a DX size sensor, this becomes a 52.5 mm equivalent lens (Very mild telephoto) The results have been excellent. This lens is fast and sharp. I have had good results even wide open at f2. I like shooting with vintage glass, they just seem to produce better results.

This is one of the great classic Nikon Nikkor all manual AIS lenses. It is sharp, versatile, and well built. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a great all around manual prime lens for their Nikon camera.

There was a typo in the description - not F2.5 but 2.8. This is a sharp lens with excellent color and contrast. Manual focus but very smooth and easy to focus.

In a world of overly expensive fast lenses this is a gem. Fast enough to use in the all but darkest places but still very inexpensive when you compare it to the alternatives!

35mm / 2.0 stays a safe bet for analog Nikon... Beautiful well built, solid objective and of a very beautiful optical quality already in full opening but which explodes from 4.0
