Nikon NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S Overview

Benefitting the optics, a stepping motor provides quick, quiet, and precise autofocus performance along with full-time manual focus override to suit both stills and video applications. Additionally, a programmable control ring can be set for intuitive adjustment over a variety of camera and exposure settings.

Prime wide-angle lens is designed for FX-format Z-mount mirrorless cameras.

Bright f/1.8 maximum aperture suits working in difficult lighting conditions and also offers increased control over depth of field for isolating subjects and working with selective focus.

Three aspherical elements are used to reduce spherical aberrations and distortion in order to realize sharp imagery with accurate rendering.

Two extra-low dispersion elements greatly reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to produce greater clarity and color rendering.

A Nano Crystal Coat, along with a Super Integrated Coating, has been applied to lens elements to minimize surface and internal reflections for a marked reduction in lens flare and ghosting.

Stepping motor delivers impressively smooth, quiet, and fast autofocus performance that is well-suited to both stills and video applications. Full-time manual focus override is also possible and an internal focusing design is used, where only the internal lens groups are moved during focusing, to maintain the overall length of the lens during use and to promote faster focusing speeds.

Programmable Control Ring is, by default, set to adjust manual focus, but can also be used to control aperture or exposure compensation.

Specialized electromagnetic aperture mechanism provides greater exposure control stability that is especially beneficial when working with fast continuous shooting rates.

Rounded nine-blade diaphragm promotes a pleasing out of focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques.

Dust- and moisture-resistant lens barrel benefits the lens' use in inclement conditions.

Nikon NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S Reviews

Nice and sharp

By Eric W.

Rated 5 out of 5

Date: 2025-06-09

I've owned this lens for 7 months now, and it is great for street photography. It is very sharp (especially after stopping down to f/2.8) with minimal flare or ghosting. It doesn't have function buttons, but that isn't expected on Z lenses of this size. The 40mm f/2 is a great budget option, but produces much softer images. If you can grab this 35mm on sale, do it.

Just another great S lens from Nikon

I used to have the Nikkor Z 35mm f/1.4, but I wasn’t a fan of how it behaved when the sun was in the frame. There was just too much flare and ghosting. This new lens is much better. There’s still some flare and ghosting, but not as much as the 35mm f/1.4. I sold the 1.4, bought this one, and I couldn’t be happier. B&H is my go-to store for high-value items. I’ve never been disappointed for more than 20 years.

When I mount this on my Z9 camera, the mount is SO TIGHT I need to force it on. Is mine defective or are others seeing this?

Asked by: Amanda

FYI, I have a rainbow of z lenses (14-24, 24-70, 70-200, 50, 85, 105) and NONE of these has the ridiculously tight mount of the 35 mm I just bought (exchange pending), so this is NOT a general feature of Z lenses.

All the reviews seem to indicate Z6 or Z7 cameras. How is this lens with the Z50? Anyone?

Asked by: Thomas

Z50 is a crop sensor (DX) so the 35mm will be like a 50mm.

Does the lens barrel on the Nikkor Z 35mm f/1.8s move in/out when focusing, or does the barrel stay internal when focusing?

Asked by: George

Internal and the length does not change. And the front does not rotate and easier to use polarizers.

Considering this lens for filmmaking. Does the focus ring on lens work well with follow focus motors? Or would I have to get a focus gear ring?

Asked by: Elena

I would get a Nikon 35mm 1.4 manual focus lens instead with a focus ring.

Would you get this to replace a Tamron 35/1.4?

Asked by: Javier

If you're happy with the lens you're using, then save the money. If you need to move to a new lens then seriously consider the Nikor Z35 F1.8; great bokeh, super sharp and fast focus as you'd expect from a prime lens.
