[QUOTE="STM, post: 118794, member: 12827"] I hope I am not talking out of school here because I really know very little about the autofocus lenses, but here goes anyway. Have a big grain of salt handy just in case. If that 35mm f/2 D is the same optical formula as the 35mm f/2 AIS, it is not all that great of a lens. It is pretty soft in the corners and had some pretty noticeable problems with coma that were not gone until around f/8 or f/11. The 35mm f/2.8 AIS (which I have) is superior to it in nearly every respect and was about half the price. If Nikon changed the optical formula, which they really did not do for most of their lenses when they went from AIS to D, than perhaps someone here more familiar with the D's is a better reference than I am.
