Nikon NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.2 S

Nikon's fastest 35mm lens for the Z mount — the NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.2 S combines an extremely shallow depth of field with S-line optical performance, a multi-focus AF system for fast and precise focusing, and full weather sealing. Built for photographers who want maximum subject separation and low-light performance from a wide-angle prime.

GearFrame's Take

An extraordinary wide-angle prime — f/1.2 at 35mm delivers shallow depth of field and low-light performance previously unseen at this focal length, with S-line sharpness and build quality to match. A specialist lens for photographers who want a signature look.

👤
Portrait f/1.2 at 35mm produces a unique look for environmental portraits — wide enough for context, shallow enough for striking subject separation.
🏙️
Street A fast, sharp 35mm is a classic street focal length, and f/1.2 brings exceptional low-light capability.
🏔️
Landscape Excellent sharpness makes this a capable landscape lens, though f/2.8 zooms offer more flexibility for the genre.
