Nikon has introduced the NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.2 S, a cutting-edge wide-angle prime lens designed for full-frame/FX-format mirrorless cameras with the Nikon Z mount. This fast lens, part of Nikon’s premium S-Line series, offers exceptional optical performance and caters to photographers and videographers who seek stunning image quality, versatility, and smooth bokeh.
The NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.2 S is engineered to capture high-resolution imagery with a beautiful, soft bokeh that emphasizes the subject while rendering textures realistically. The lens shares design principles with Nikon’s acclaimed NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.2 S and NIKKOR Z 85mm f/1.2 S, combining advanced rendering capabilities and a sense of depth, even at its wide angle of view.
Key features of the lens include three ED glass elements and one aspherical ED glass element, which significantly reduce aberrations and ensure sharp, clear images. Additionally, the lens incorporates Nikon’s advanced coatings, such as Meso Amorphous Coat, Nano Crystal Coat, and ARNEO Coat, to minimize ghosting and flare, delivering exceptional clarity in all shooting conditions.
Ideal for a variety of photography styles, including portraiture, street photography, and video recording, the NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.2 S excels in both still image and video capture. Its multi-focusing system, which uses stepping motors (STMs), ensures fast, precise autofocus for both mediums. The lens also features video-friendly attributes, including focus-breathing suppression and stable exposure control.
Designed with durability in mind, the NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.2 S offers superior dust- and drip-resistant performance, ensuring reliability even in challenging weather conditions. It also includes two convenient Fn buttons for quick adjustments of settings, especially during vertical shooting.
