Thom's commentary: Nikon's fastest 35mm didn't quite make it to f/1.2. In many respects this new f/1.4 lens feels like a redesigned 35mm f/1.8 S. It's nearly the same size and weight as the f/1.8, has a similar minimum focus distance. But this lens is not an S lens, so performance needs to be verified, particularly at its low price point.
