Yes. Great Lens
Long time Nikon user. Had always wanted the 35mm lens. Bought it in anticipation of several wedding events. Used it, very sharp, like it very much. Expensive, but if you can justify the cost, go for it... You only have one life to take photos - keep telling myself that daily.
Nikkor AF-S 35mm f/1.4 G (FX) - Review / Test Report
It took Nikon a while to get into gear regarding their fast primes, but at least in case of the AF-S 35/1.4 G the result is impressive and was worth the wait. The image center is very sharp right from the largest aperture, the borders and corners follow only slightly behind and offer very good...

Nikon AF-S Nikkor 35mm f/1.4G Review
The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 35mm f/1.4G is a wide-angle lens that's sharp and captures a lot of light, but it's quite expensive. The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 35mm f/1.4G ($1,799.95) is a wide-aperture lens aimed at photographers who adore the classic wide-angle field of view that a 35mm prime lens captures. It's a fine lens that's quite sharp through most of the frame, showing just a bit of softness at the edges when paired with a full-frame camera, but it's also one that's quite expensive and heavy. If you don't mind sacrificing half a stop of light gathering capability, don't count out the light, budget-friendly Nikon AF-S Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G ($529.95 at Amazon) as an alternative. If you absolutely need the shallow depth of field provided by an f/1.4 optic, and want a lens that's sharp from edge to edge, our Editors' Choice Sigma 35mm F1.4 DG HSM ($683.00 at Amazon) is better than the Nikkor version in many regards, and it's a lot less expensive. The Nikkor 35mm ($1,546.95 at Amazon) isn't that big of a lens, but it's heavy. It measures 3.5 by 3.3 inches (HD) and supports 67mm front filters, but it weighs in a...- Excellent center sharpness

Best Uses : Street, Event, Low light I have read people complain in forums that this lens is inferior to the 24mm AF/S. The perspective between the 24 & 35 are vastly different. It's not a matter of which is sharper, more important is which perspective is needed/preferred.- Sharp

Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 35mm f/1.4G Lens - Brand New review
Nikon AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G is the latest update to the venerable Nikkor 50mm f/1.4D. The Nikon communality has been expecting this lens for quite some time now, considering that the previous version of the lens was introduced in 1995 and has not seen any updates since then.
