Q: 1. What's the difference between (85mm+35mm) f1.8G and f1.8G ED

A: ED is low dispersion glass, it has better quality glass. Extra-low dispersion glass element is used in the optical construction to reduce a variety of chromatic aberrations and color fringing for a high degree of clarity and color neutrality.

Q: 2. What is the difference between this lens and the other 35 mm1.8 G lens that is stound 250.00

A: I believe you are looking at the difference between the DX (crop sensor) and FX (Full Framework) price. The crop sensor versions are usually about half the price of the full frame versions. Unless you have a full frame camera, or thinking about getting one, get the DX version. It is always best to get the version of lens designed for your camera.

Q: 3. If I use this FX 35mm lense on my DX D300 body, will it essentially be a 50mm? (which is what I need). Thanks, Paul.

A: Hi Paul, you are correct...with the Nikon 1.5x crop factor, you will essentially get the full frame equivalent of a 50mm lens (actually 52.5mm). Bare in mind though that the crop factor extends to the F-stop too with respect to depth of field.Hope this helps.Michael

Q: 10. Is this a sharp lens for a D800?

A: Very sharp lens. I like it a lot. It shines from 2.8. For family / people i shoot at F2.8; nature at F8. The lens is just an instrument. Everybody is different and approach to record the moment of life is also different. I think 20mm 1.8, 35mm 1.8, and 70-200 f2.8 must have it. For nature, i use most of the time 35mm, than 16-35mm. Family and travel, 35 and 70-200.
