The NIKKOR Z DX MC 35mm f/1.7 represents a fundamental innovation in the Nikon Z DX optical landscape, positioning itself as the first fixed-focal-length Micro (Macro) lens for this format, featuring an exceptional maximum aperture of f/1.7. This hybrid lens, equivalent to a 50mm focal length in the FX format, offers a natural and versatile perspective, excellent for environmental portraiture, street photography, and general photography, but truly excels in its magnification capabilities. It achieves a maximum reproduction ratio of 0.67x, the effective equivalent of 1:1 in the full-frame format, allowing the photographer to explore worlds of detail invisible to the naked eye thanks to a minimum focusing distance of just 16 cm. The advanced optical construction includes an aspherical ED glass element to minimize aberrations and ensure extreme sharpness. The wide aperture not only guarantees impeccable performance in low-light conditions and superb depth-of-field control but also produces a soft and pleasing bokeh. The STM (Stepper Motor) autofocus system is incredibly quiet and fast, with optimized suppression of focus breathing, making this lens an indispensable tool even for videographers who require precision and smooth transitions.
