JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA, 5 FEBRUARY 2025 – Nikon in South Africa is pleased to announce the release of the NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.2 S, a fast wide-angle prime lens that is compatible with full-frame/FX-format mirrorless cameras for which the Nikon Z mount has been adopted.
The NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.2 S is part of the S-Line* series, and realizes outstanding optical performance. It emphasizes the main subjects with soft and beautiful bokeh, and provides realistic expression of textures. Sharing the same design concept as the NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.2 S and the NIKKOR Z 85mm f/1.2 S, it offers superior rendering capabilities as well as delivering depiction with a sense of depth, even at its wide angle of view.
The optics are constructed by employing three ED glass elements and one aspherical ED glass element, enabling effective aberration reduction. In addition, the application of Meso Amorphous Coat, Nano Crystal Coat, and ARNEO Coat minimizes ghosting and flares, providing outstanding optical performance. The NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.2 S supports diverse imaging expressions, including portraiture such as weddings, street photography, and video recording.
Nikon will continue to pursue a new dimension in optical performance while meeting users’ needs, contributing to the development of imaging culture, with the hope of expanding possibilities for imaging expression.
*The S-Line is a grade of NIKKOR Z lenses that demonstrate outstanding optical performance, adhering to a high standard of design principles and quality control.
