Digital Lenses For Nikon D70

The Nikon 18-55mm, 18-70mm, 18-105mm and 18-135mm kit lenses can produce good photographs. After learning the basics with these lenses, photographers can stretch their capabilities with the following affordable, and good, lenses.

Nikon 35mm f1.8 DX AF-S

This bright prime lens is 4 to 8 times brighter than the kit lenses. The intermediate 35mm focal length is equivalent to the classic 50mm "standard" or "normal" lens on full frame cameras, preferred by some photojournalists.

It allows the photographer to

  • Take photographs in dim light without flash. This results in natural-looking photographs and avoids drawing attention to the photographer.
  • Blur out the background in portraits, drawing attention to the subject for that "professional portrait" look.

Nikon 50mm f1.8 FX AF

This is equivalent to 75mm on full frame cameras (short portrait lens). The longer focal length makes it better for portraits compared to the 35mm f1.8. It allows a comfortable working distance between the photographer and the subject.
