Thank you for purchasing the AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G lens. DX Nikkor lenses are specially designed for use
with Nikon digital-SLR (Nikon DX-format) cameras, such as the D300 and D90. When mounted on Nikon DX-format
cameras, the lens picture angle is equivalent to approximately 1.5× the focal length in 35mm format. Before using
this lens, please read these instructions and refer to your camera’s User’s Manual.
■ Major features
• This lens employs a Silent Wave Motor to drive the
focusing mechanism, making autofocusing smooth,
silent and almost instantaneous. The focus mode
switch 9 is provided for simple selection of
autofocus (A) or manual focus (M) operation.
• More accurate exposure control is possible when this
is mounted on a Nikon camera with 3D color matrix
metering capability, because subject distance
information is transferred from the lens to the camera.
• Superior optical performance and rendering
characteristics are maximized with the use of one
aspherical lens element. In addition, soft and pleasing
blur characteristics in portions of pictures that are
out-of focus are achieved by the rounded diaphragm.
• Up to two Wireless Remote Speedlight SB-R200s can
be mounted on the edge of the lens.
