Is the panasonic lumix s 35mm f 1 8 good for street photography?

Yes, it's a good street lens. A 35mm is a classic street focal length, and f/1.8 lets you work in dim light. On full frame it frames as marked. On APS-C it frames like 52mm, which is tighter than many street shooters like, so think about which body you'll use with it. The Panasonic Lumix S 35mm f/1.8 fits these bodies:

My rule for street is that a camera nobody notices beats megapixels. The sensor guide says a good APS-C body is enough for street, and you'll carry it more. Be open about what you're doing, and delete a shot if someone asks. Check the street notes on people for the rules where you shoot.
