It’s an autofocus lens for Nikon Z photographers who shoot street scenes and travel, and who want the option of a soft, out-of-focus background as well as a bright view through the lens. On a late city walk, the wide aperture is useful for working in available light; during the day, 35mm is a natural focal length for catching street details without narrowing the scene too much. It also works well for travel photographs where you want a clear sense of place, from a lively square to a quiet café interior. The optical design uses 15 elements in 10 groups, including ED, HR and UA glass, to reduce chromatic aberration and retain contrast and colour. Autofocus is driven by Viltrox’s Quad HyperVCM motor, with face and eye tracking support for stills and video. A dual floating focus system maintains sharpness across the focus range, while the close-focus distance of 34cm lets you bring a nearby detail into the frame. It’s a substantial set of capabilities in a single fixed-focal-length lens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 data-section=\"features\"\u003eWhy this focal length works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e35mm standard prime:\u003c\/strong\u003e The 64.2° angle of view gives street and travel scenes room for their surroundings while keeping a clear subject in the frame.

Focus can also be set manually, so you can choose between autofocus and direct focus control. The lens’s 35mm focal length is the stated focal length; the field of view you see depends on the camera body you use. Its fixed focal length keeps the framing consistent, while the bright maximum aperture gives you a wide range of aperture settings to work with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"specialist-note\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecialist Note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA common first misstep with an f\/1.2 prime is leaving it wide open by habit; at that aperture, where you place focus has a strong effect on what stays sharp. This Viltrox gives you a useful reason to open up when street light is low, and its autofocus can track faces and eyes for people moving through the frame. For a travel detail, focus as close as 34cm and use f\/1.2 to make the subject more distinct from its surroundings. The click or clickless aperture ring is a welcome detail if you switch between stills and video, since you can choose the kind of adjustment that suits the job. I’d point this lens towards street and travel photographers who value a bright prime. Just bear in mind that 35mm is a fixed view, not a zoom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eViltrox AF 35mm f\/1.2 lens for Nikon Z\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLens hood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear lens cap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront lens cap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStorage bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Viltrox\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: AF 35mm f\/1.2 Nikon Z\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Interchangeable standard prime lens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFocal length: 35mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum aperture: f\/1.2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAperture range: f\/1.2–f\/22\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMount: Nikon Z\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFocus: Autofocus and manual focus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum focus distance: 0.34m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum magnification: 0.17x\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilter thread: 77mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 89.2 × 121.8mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 910g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Viltrox","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57447571652948,"sku":"D306381","price":959.91,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/2493\/3716\/files\/D306381_01.jpg?v=1791293376","url":"https:\/\/www.htf-store.com\/products\/viltrox-af-35mm-f-1-2-nikon-z","provider":"Hard to Find Camera Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
