What's great about it: Fast, good in low light, bokeh
What's not so great: Still learning good settings for intense light, no zoom
Overall, I've taken some awesome portraits with this lens that look like magazine quality photos although they were just real quick snap shots. They were taken in low light, I wasn't using flash and the subject wasn't posing but they were great! Since then, I've used it at parties, great for the kids. Focus is very quick with this lens and no image stabilization necessary as the lens is that fast.---The worst thing about this lens is, well, me. I'm an amateur photographer and I know this lens (and my camera) are capable of great images. Looking forward to learning more, building my cache of equipment and lighting modifiers, but I totally love this lens and have been using it over the kit lens for a while now. The only time I put the kit on is for scenery or anything where I need a wider angle.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Sorry but no it is not compatible with that camera. The Nikon 1 J1 is a compact system camera and mostly all the lenses and accessories will be a lot smaller.
