Magnificent Low Light Reproduction Lens
I recently used the new Nikkor Z 35mm f/1.8 S lens inside the dark environment of the Musee d'Orsay art museum in Paris, France where photography (without flash and tripod) is allowed. This lens renders spectacular results in low light due to its optical excellence and the associated superior design of the Nikon Z7 camera body. Below is an image of Vincent van Gogh's oil on canvas titled "Portrait of Dr. Gachet" that renders color and every brush stroke perfectly.
NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S Lens for Z Series Mirrorless Cameras
Specially built for Nikon’s latest line of FX-format mirrorless cameras, the NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S lens offers the ideal focal length for shooting a wide range of subjects and scenes, including landscapes and portraits. And with a maximum aperture of f/1.8, this impressive wide-angle lens helps capture well-exposed images with stunning background bokeh even in challenging shooting situations. Its optical design features three aspherical and two extra-low dispersion elements, all of which work together in reducing distortion and aberrations to deliver clearer and sharper images with spectacular detail. The lens surfaces have also been applied with Nano Crystal and Super Integrated coatings to significantly minimize flare and ghosting, resulting in accurate colors and high-contrast results. Just like the other Z lenses included in Nikon’s new mirrorless system, this 35mm has a programmable control ring on the lens body that provides more intuitive control over camera and exposure settings. Rounding off its advanced features are its fast, quiet, and precise AF system and full-time manual focusing for both photo and video modes.
Welcome to a New Era of Nikon Imaging
ALC Hands-On Review with Tamara Lackey: Testing the New Nikon Mirrorless Camera System
I was lucky enough to spend a full week shooting nearly non-stop with the new Nikon mirrorless system. I may have stopped for sleep a bit but, otherwise, I was able to shoot in multiple regions throughout the Yucatan Peninsula and then flew a few hours up north, with our crew, to Guanajuato, Mexico. And then I shot a whole lot more. I was able to put the new system through the paces — shooting in large, rainforest-like sinkholes, in pitch-dark caves, at pink lagoons, above colorful landscapes, and in and above the streets of a large, sprawling city.
My first impression of the new system is pretty straightforward: It’s just extraordinary.

The Nikkor Legacy Continues: New Nikon Z Lenses
NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S Lens: A wider world of possibilities.
35mm prime. A desert-island lens for many. Wide enough to nail the view. Shallow enough to draw out subjects. Fast enough to make the impossible possible. And so sharp.... just utter unwavering sharpness. In reimagining this classic lens for the new Z system, we may very well have perfected it.
Perception Redefined
Breakthrough Z system performance
Empowered by the Z system's larger mount, shorter flange distance, raw imaging power and video capabilities, the NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S will redefine your perceptions of what an f/1.8 lens can do.
Wide-open sharpness
Epic definition and resolution from the center of the frame to the edges, even at its f/1.8 maximum aperture. No need to stop this lens down.
Fast, accurate focus
The larger Z Mount delivers more light to a Z series full frame mirrorless camera's powerful PDAF system for extremely high focusing accuracy and speed.
The undistorted truth
An improved optical formula for virtually zero flare, ghosting, coma or chromatic, spherical and axial aberration, even at the far edges of the frame.
Jack of All Situations
Versatile 35mm angle of view
Few lenses are as versatile as a fast 35mm prime. The NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S Lens is ideal for landscapes, street photography, weddings, environmental portraits, and more. A favorite among filmmakers for its human-eye perspective. Brilliant in low-light situations. Lightweight and portable.
Dreamy backgrounds
A 9-blade rounded diaphragm and f/1.8 aperture combine with the larger mount and shorter flange distance to produce stunning round bokeh.
Beautiful establishing shots
Human eye-perspective puts viewers at the heart of the shot, whether it's an interview, tutorial video or product demo. Near-silent autofocus is powered by a new stepping motor.
Shines in low light
Draws peak performance from a Z series mirrorless camera's outstanding low light capabilities. Captures point-of-light sources like streetlights with uncanny sharpness and minimal spherical aberration.
The Front Line of an Imaging Revolution
Next-generation Z design and optics
Nikon Z mirrorless lenses, perfectly matched to Z series full frame mirrorless camera bodies, are designed with a sense of consistency that combines reliability and beauty with next-dimension optical performance for freedom in image creation.
Durable & lightweight
Extensively sealed against dust and moisture, especially around all moving parts of the lens barrel. Compact, lightweight, and ideally balanced on a Nikon Z series camera.
New Customizable Control Ring
The NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S Lens's customizable control ring can be used for manual focusing (default), aperture control (great for iris transitions during video recording), or exposure compensation.
New Dual Detect 5 Axis VR
Uses the Z mirrorless cameras' superior in-camera image stabilization system for up to 5 stops of pitch, roll, yaw, X and Y shake correction. Additional electronic VR (e-VR) during video capture.
NIKKOR FEATURES
Stepping Motor: NIKKOR Z lenses use a stepping motor for fast, accurate, smooth, quiet autofocus with reduced wobbling. This quiet drive system makes the lenses ideal for use when shooting video.
Aspherical – Extra-low Dispersion Glass Elements: An ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass element that features the characteristics of an Aspheric glass element for a more compact-sized lens. Like Aspherical lenses, AS-ED lens elements minimize coma and other types of lens aberrations, even when used at the widest aperture by continuously changing the refractive index from the center of the lens. The AS-ED lens elements are optical glass developed by Nikon to obtain optimum correction of chromatic aberrations.
Aspherical Lens: A lens with a curved, non-spherical surface. Used to reduce aberrations and enable a more compact lens size. Aspherical lenses minimize coma and other types of lens aberrations, even when used at the widest aperture. They are particularly useful in correcting distortion in wide-angle lenses and help contribute to a lighter, more compact design by reducing the number of standard (spherical) elements necessary. Aspherical lens elements correct these distortions by continuously changing the refractive index from the center of the lens.
Nano Crystal Coat: An anti-reflective coating developed by Nikon that virtually eliminates internal lens element reflections across a wide range of wavelengths. Nano Crystal Coat solves ghost effects caused by red light and effectively reduces ghost and flare caused by light entering the lens diagonally.
Electromagnetic Diaphragm Mechanism: An electromagnetic diaphragm mechanism in the lens barrel provides highly accurate electronic diaphragm or aperture blade control when using auto exposure during continuous shooting. With conventional D/G type lenses, the diaphragm blades are operated by mechanical linkage levers.
IF Lens: A NIKKOR lens in which only the internal lens group shifts during focusing. Thus, IF NIKKOR lenses do not change in size during AF operation, allowing for compact, lightweight lenses capable of closer focusing distances. These lenses will be designated with the abbreviation IF on the lens barrel.
Fluorine Coat: Photographers need gear that can withstand the elements. Nikon’s fluorine coat effectively repels dust, water droplets, grease or dirt, ensuring easy removal even when they adhere to the lens surface. Nikon’s fluorine coat endures a high frequency of lens surface wiping and its anti-reflective effect also contributes to the capture of clear images.
Super Integrated Coating: Nikon Super Integrated Coating is Nikon's term for its multilayer coating of the optical elements in NIKKOR lenses.
Before, the 35mm prime lens was considered a staple in the world of photography. Now, with the introduction of the NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S Lens, Nikon has taken this classic lens and reimagined it for the modern era, pushing the boundaries of what's possible in photography. This lens is wide enough to capture breathtaking landscapes and cityscapes, yet its f/1.8 aperture allows for a shallow depth of field, perfect for isolating subjects and creating stunning portraits.
The NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S Lens is not just fast, it's lightning-fast, enabling photographers to capture fleeting moments and action shots with ease.
