We run through the stats and specs of Nikon’s new classic 35mm prime lens

The new NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.4 is a fast prime lens with a classic 35mm focal length, so it’s perfect for street, reportage and all-day photography, as well as a great choice for documentary, video and filmmaking. The large f/1.4 maximum aperture combines with fantastic optics to deliver beautiful bokeh, great subject separation and superb sharpness, while the 27cm minimum focus distance means you can get up close for those intimate images. Let’s take a look at the specs and stats that reveal what this lens is capable of.

 

Mount: Nikon Z mount

Nikon’s Z mount is wider than the competition, and a wide mount means more light (and more detail) hitting your camera’s sensor.

 
Focal length: 35mm

Considered a ‘classic’ focal length, the angle of view of this full frame (FX) 35mm lens is close to that of the human eye, giving you natural-looking images, perfect for street photography, landscapes, travel, reportage and video.

 
Aperture range: f/1.4 – f/16

The fast aperture allows for a wide range of creative expression, with sharp images in low light, the ability to reduce blurring with faster shutter speeds and beautiful bokeh and subject separation with such a shallow depth of field. The lens can be closed down all the way to f/16 for sharpness from front to back of your image.
