- #115 in Mirrorless Camera Lenses
A brilliant reimagining of the classic 35mm prime for Z mirrorless cameras. Performance Unlike any f/1.8 before it. Designed to be shot wide-open-extreme sharpness from the center of the frame to the edges. Liberating low-light performance. Dreamy blurred backgrounds. Ultra-quiet focusing. Equally great for stills or videos. Prepare to be amazed.

This is just a must have for any Nikon setup. The 35mm perspective is just perfect and the clinical sharpness is uncanny. This stays attached to my Z8 and only gets swapped out when I need some reach, otherwise I attempt to make it work in as many situations as possible. Shooting mainly people pics and street photography here.

My brand new Nikon NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S | Premium Large Aperture 35mm Prime Lens for Z Series mirrorless cameras works great in manual mode and does not perform as well as I expected it to in Auto. I'm using it with my Z9 and I do almost exclusively static photography and am happy with it. It is A Nikon, so it is well built and of course A bit expensive. Still all and all, I do recommend its purchase as needed.

make no mistake, this is professional glass through and throughTL;DR:Pros:- sharpness and resolution are sensational- smooth non-distracting bokeh- micro-contrast is pro-level- color rendering is superb- light and compact- fast focus- solid buildCons:- max magnification is not inspiring (this is no macro lens)- no controls on the lens except for AF/MF switch. no control ring, no lens buttons, no aperture- no built-in VR- plain design looks cheapat first when Nikon released this, I thought it was just a placeholder lens, to make sure Z system early adopters had something to shoot with. it just looks like a simple cheap lens, one of the reasons I wasn't attracted to it at firstbut now while I got tired waiting for a faster 35mm option and got this to play with, I am absolutely stunned by the image quality delivered, and see no reason to wait for a faster (and no doubt heavier and pricier) option.portraits look stunning at F/2, sharpness is hair-splitting corner to corner, resolution this lens delivers is superb, crop any way you like. micro-contrast is second to none, and colors are sensationalif 35mm is your FOV, look no further for Z system. this lens also makes 50mm 1.8 S redundant. just shoot 35mm and crop, resolution is there, especially if you shoot Z7. even on Z6 I can crop like there was no tomorrow and get stunning photosall in all, highly recommended.

The Nikon 85mm 1.8 is a great lens...especially for the price. It was much better to get this lens than the 85mm 1.2 that cost over 3 times the price. I have all the 1.8 S line lens for the Z mounts.

This is one great lens.I shoot family portraits and weddings for a living. I can use this on the Family portraits on my Nikon Z6 and it is a very sharp lens with good contrast and fast focus.I use a 85mm Z on my second Z6 on portraits for a two camera setup.The 35mm for the group photos and the 85mm for the single and two people photos.

J'utilise cet objectif avec un Z6 et un Z6II. C'est un très bon 35mm, qui permet d'obtenir des images très détaillées. Certains diront que le rendu manque de charme, c'est pas faux, tout dépend de ce qu'on recherche.Pas de stabilisation puisque ce sont les capteurs qui sont maintenant stabilisés sur les boitiers full frame de la gamme Z.La mise au point est ultra-silencieuse et suffisamment rapide pour mon usage.Certes, il n'ouvre pas à 1.4. Mais l'ouverture à 1.8 permet déjà d'obtenir une profondeur de champ suffisamment faible. Et avec les sensibilités qu'arrivent à encaisser les boitiers actuels, le gros demi-diaph d'écart est anecdotique en termes d'exposition.Sinon, je trouve l'objectif très sobre, mais bien construit. A part le petit logo "Nikkor S", rien n'indique qu'il s'agit du haut de gamme. Certains regretteront le liseré doré, d'autres apprécieront la discrétion.Parmi les points négatifs, je citerai le prix, qu'on pourrait trouver un peu élevé pour un 35mm non stabilisé, mais qui reste acceptable compte tenu de la qualité optique.J'aurais aussi apprécié un encombrement un peu plus faible, mais on ne peut pas tout avoir... Globalement, j'en suis très satisfait.

This is my first 35mm focal length prime. I find this lens very versatile and fun to use. The focus is snappy and the colors and contrast are wonderful. The size is just fine for walking around for long periods of time with it. It even fits in my jacket pocket while on the camera. I got it during the holiday specials so it was lower cost than usual.

Tengo el canon 35L II f/1.4 que es uno de los mejores 35mm que hay. Uso un adaptador para nikon con el canon. He comparado ambos, el nikon 35mm z y el 35L con fotos iguales, y diría que llega a un 90% de la calidad del L con lo que no está nada mal por la diferencia de peso sobretodo. Por precio la lente igual es algo cara, pero el 35L de canon es muchisimo mas caro. Esta lente puede sacar muy buenas fotos y tiene cierto carácter, no como las lentes de hoy en dia que "solo" son nítidas, yo la tengo para no cargar con el canon que pesa el doble.

Product is too good there is no doubt about that, its a product which usually people buy after whole lot of research.But, i am very very disappointed with the seller who had sent product with opened/ breaked seal.The packaging for product like lens was pathetic, few Papers were just put in there instead of proper bubble thing.I would highly recommend every professional to buy such specialized product from company store instead of online platform.

+ excellent image quality+ very sharp, low distortion+ fast and accurate AF- not the 'feel' of a 1.4, let alone a Leica lens...It's a quite big, but light and well built 35mm than can cope with the sensor res of the Z7.(My AF-S 35/1.4 only delivers around 28MP, hence doesn't do on the Z7).What I would have hoped for is a 1.4 version that would get closer to (but probably never reach) my Leica Summilux 35.Overall, more versatile than the 50mm (which is also awesome).

Es un excelente lente, mejora en todo aspecto a su equivalente en montura F, y sin duda le saca el máximo provecho a las Nikon Z por el autofoco, estabilización de imagen y anillo de función personalizada.Con eso dicho, si ya tienes un 35mm FX de 1.8 o 1.4 quizás debas evaluar a profundidad si sus ventajas justifican el precio, ya que sin duda no es barato, quizás con el adaptador FTZ sea suficiente, ya que los lentes F también funcionan perfecto con las Nikon Z.
