At F1.8 there is minimal loss of sharpness, but hardly noticeable. The quality of the photos taken with this lens is high, even when shooting at F1.8. In order to prevent loss of quality, you often choose either the B+W MRC filters or the Carl Zeiss filters.
For both reasons, it is recommended to use a UV filter. Due to the small size, there is also no protection against bumping the lens against walls, tables, etc. The supplied lens hood is not very large, so there is not much effect on preventing flaring. The ring is wide enough to prevent you from bumping the hood so that people with larger hands can also use this small lens.
The focus ring feels a bit stiff and has a range of about 100 degrees. (This is only possible when the camera has an AF motor built in). If the lens itself cannot find a point to focus, you can do this manually by either setting the lens to the M position or by setting the position to M on the camera body. The lens focuses quickly, even in low-light situations. I personally never use the supplied cloth holder for the lens, but it can be useful when the lens is not being transported in a camera bag. The rubber sealing ring ensures that less dust can get into the camera. At the back of the lens, the choice was made to make the mount from metal instead of plastic. When you hold the lens in your hand, it feels good. I've been using this lens for three days now and I really like it. Due to the DX format sensor of my D90, this 35mm lens corresponds to a 52mm lens on an FX body.
After looking at different lenses, I opted for the Nikon 35mm F1.8G. The lens was also not allowed to cost too much due to a limited budget. The requirements were that the lens had a good quality housing and had to take sharp pictures. I bought this lens because I wanted a 'fast' prime lens.
