This is the Nikon 35mm DX with the AF-S motor that works with DX cameras, including the D40 and D60 series. If you have a FX camera, you should choose one of the 35mm lenses. A lot of us are in the habit of thinking of a 35mm lens as being a moderate wide angle, but because the DX cameras have a 1.5 crop factor, this lens turns out to be neutral. It has a wide aperture of f/1.8 and it is small and lightweight. It can focus down to 12 inches, it’s about 2 inches long, and it weighs just 7 ounces. These features make this lens very versatile indoors and out.
