  • Nikon 55-200mm f/4-5.6G IF-ED VR DX AF-S Nikkor

    10 out of 10 points and recommended
    Lightweight, Cheap, lots of value for the money
    Only f/5.6 @ 200mm

    Excellent lens with a lot of value for the money, and extremely lightweight.

    The downside is that it´s not very light sensitive, but the 70-200 mm f/2.8 costs roughly 9 times as much, at least in Sweden, so it was never an option.

    Really a great lens, fantastic for portraits.

  • Nikon 60mm f/2.8G ED AF-S Micro Nikkor

    Sharpness, Build quality, AF speed!
    none

    Really sharp, very thin DoF.

    Build quality is great, autofocus is INCREDIBLY fast, even compared to the 18-55 VR and 55-200mm VR lenses.

    Simply a great lens, at a bargain price.

  • Nikon 35mm f/1.8G DX AF-S Nikkor

    9 out of 10 points and recommended
    IQ, Small, Lightweight, Cheap, Very Fast
    Maybe too small? No distance scale, AF perhaps isn´t the fastest

    Great lens, very cheap and extremely fast in low light. Very compact and lightweight, a bargain really, not much to argue about that.

    IQ is good, but of course not as good as the AF-S 60mm macro, neither is the AF-speed, but still, a great lens.

    Highly recommended.
