Meet the bright 35mm DX macro lens that’s great for general photography and video too. With its fast f/1.7 aperture, beautiful bokeh, and sharp close focusing, you can go big on the details in any light.
Everyday versatility
Thanks to its 35mm focal length (approx. 50mm full-frame equivalent), you can use this fast prime lens for more than just macro. Candid travel portraits, landscapes, food photography, and more: its natural perspective is beautifully rewarding.
Life-size magnification
The textures, the colours, the shapes. The NIKKOR Z DX MC 35mm f/1.7 prime lens creates richly detailed true macro shots. Its 0.67x maximum reproduction ratio is equivalent to 1:1 life-size magnification in 35mm/FX format.
Natural storyteller
This lens’ normal field of view so closely matches our own that framing your shots becomes wonderfully intuitive. Realistic proportions, balanced backgrounds: move around freely and get as close as you like—each composition will feel just right.
Gets close, stays sharp
A minimum focus distance of just 0.16 m lets you attain super-sharp images, even when the front of the lens is just 7.2 cm away from your subject.
Explore the art of bokeh
Shoot wide open at f/1.7 and you can create photos and video with a real sense of depth. High-resolution rendering and an aspherical ED glass element ensure crisp subject detail and soft, round bokeh highlights. Your close-ups will pop!
Create freely in available light
From striking macro shots bathed in window light, to sharp portraits taken at night. The f/1.7 aperture lets you capture cleaner images at low ISOs. Or use faster shutter speeds to freeze motion and nail steadier handheld shots.
