Instead of just writing down our thoughts like we’d normally do, we’re trying a full video review to see if this is the format you might prefer. The video is around 7 minutes and we go into...

As digital SLRs become more mainstream, so too does the need for lighter and more capable lenses. Both the Nikon D60 and D90 cameras have proven in sales that people want what Nikon are creating and the new 35mm F1.8 lens take the desire for a proper portrait angle & low light, merging them without any problems.
