    Compact and impressive

    Posted by Drastic on November 18, 2019

    Sharp, quick autofocus, and light. Color rendition is wonderful. The minimum focus distance is short enough that with the Z7 and its built-in vibration compensation, I have taken near-macro images hand-held that would have been impossible before.

    Excellent lens

    Posted by OkiC on November 18, 2019

    The 50 mm f/1.8 S series lens for the Z mount is a fast focusing lens that creates sharp images and really nice bokeh, especially for a 50 mm prime lens. It is light and easy to carry... The S series lenses by Nikon are all great! Can´t wait for the 70-200mm f/2.8 to be released.

    Good, but Not Equal to 50/24mm S lenses

    Posted by JimLosAltos on November 18, 2019

    The 35mm S is a decent lens, but not optically equal to either the 24 mm or the 50mm, which is disappointing. Otherwise, compact, quick focusing, reasonably sharp. I´ll likely wait to see how good the 14-24 f2.8 is and sell the 35mm to get either that or the 24mm.

    Beautiful focal length

    Posted by Quickpic on November 18, 2019

    This lens gathers light the whole way and makes the pixels count in a big way. And is supered for every subject. If you are new to mirrorless and like to keep it simple look no further. I have a pile of equipment that sometimes shoot with But this lens takes the guesswork out of buying mirrorless lenses for me I rather invest in a good bag the new CF fast cards Or a small flash and I´ll be all set.

    Excellent for video

    Posted by phototravelertroy on November 18, 2019

    The NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S delivers everything that you would expect from Nikon and their long history of offering the highest quality optical lenses. The NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S is a nice upgrade to it´s F mount equivalent and offeres better edge sharpness, better contract, less lens flaring, and the focusing motor is virtually silent, which makes it really great for video

    Love the lens

    Posted by Deano76 on September 12, 2019

    This has become my standard lens for my Z7. It´s lightweight, extremely sharp and the autofocus is lightning quick. I have always liked a 35mm prime and have always owned one and am extremely happy with this version Nikon has produced for the Z cameras.

    Great 35mm lens for my Z6.

    Posted by pcman on September 11, 2019

    Excellent 35mm lens!

    35mm is a little tight for me for many purposes, so I have pre-ordered the 24mm f/1.8 lens. I am adding Z lenses to my assortment as they show up.

    I love this lens.

    Posted by Karim on September 11, 2019

    I use this lens for almost everything. It creates incredibly vibrant and crisp shots. I rented a Sigma Art lens recently for a trip and side-by-side, I just love the images that this lens captures so much more.

    Like in the days of film

    Posted by Lawrose on September 11, 2019

    This is among the best lenses Nikon makes now. I spent many a happy photojournalism adventure in my film days with just a Nikon and a 35mm lens (shooting Tri-X pushed to 1600, of course). This lens brings back that legacy but updates the quality of this 35mm lens to 21st Century digital standards. It is a bit larger than we remember from film cameras, but once you start shooting with it, I doubt this will be a bother. Sharp, fast and providing what many consider to be the perfect field of view, you can´t go wrong.
