Nikon NIKKOR Z DX MC 35mm f/1.7

Nikon's first-ever DX-format macro lens for Z-mount, filling a long-standing gap for Z50/Zfc/Z30 owners who previously had no APS-C macro option. A versatile 52mm-equivalent everyday prime that doubles as a close-up lens, reaching 0.67x magnification — short of true 1:1 but well beyond a standard prime's close-focus ability.

📝 How suitability scores are calculated GearScore™ genre scores are calculated from this camera's verified specifications — autofocus, sensor, weight, weather sealing and more — weighted by what matters for each type of photography. Where a spec sheet misses something (e.g. a manual-focus rangefinder for street), we apply a documented editorial adjustment. Scores are not based on customer reviews. See our full methodology →
