About this product

Product Information

Enjoy taking high-quality close-up photographs with the Nikon NIKKOR 35mm f/1.4 Ai-S manual-focus camera lens. This has been a staple accessory for professional photojournalism applications for years. In fact, Nikon designed it specifically for use by the press. Its photography uses extend beyond the newspaper, however. Even amateur home photographers will appreciate its wide-angle abilities, low-light capabilities, and the sharp images it produces. You can use this product for capturing both still images and video.The f/1.4 aperture of the 35-millimeter NIKKOR lets you take pictures in low-light conditions. Photographers who do a lot of shooting indoors will appreciate the ability to snap quality images with their digital SLRs without using the flash. At f/1.4, it is wide open. It produces photographs that are sharp in the center, but the contrast fades as you move toward the edges of the image. This hazy quality gives the bokeh effect that photographers are so often looking for. The entire image sharpens up at f/2.0. At f/4.0, you'll really notice the image sharpness.You can adjust the angle of this Nikon NIKKOR up to 62 degrees to take wide-angle photographs. Wide-angle accessories are capable of fitting more in your frame. This is useful when taking panoramic group photographs or landscapes. Wide-angle lenses are also useful for really drawing attention to the subject of your photo. Get up close to your subject with these lenses, and it will be exaggerated while the background is minimized in comparison. This composition will add interest and drama to your photographs.Close-up photos are no problem for this Nikon accessory. It features Nikon's Close-Range Correction technology. CRC results in a clear image even when you shoot the photo at a close range. The minimum focus distance is 11.81 inches.The Nikon NIKKOR 35mm F/1.4 Ai-S features nine elements and seven groups. This means that you can achieve different styles of images by adjusting the NIKKOR lens. It is multicoated to reduce distortion in images. Technology advances in lens construction help improve the optics of this device. They reduce coma aberrations in your images. You will notice less sagittal coma flare in your photos when you take them with this NIKKOR accessory. The lens also features a 52-millimeter filter to keep distortion-causing dust out of the inner workings of the lens.The 35-millimeter f/1.4 is one of the fastest manual lenses available from Nikon for wide-angle use. This is a fixed focal length lens. Though this is an FX device for 35-millimeter cameras, it will also work with both FX and DX Nikon cameras as long as the DX has a 52.5-millimeter equivalent focal length. Other specifications include a seven-blade diaphragm, an all-metal design, and a minimum aperture of f/16. It uses an F-mount to attach to your DSLR camera. The screw-on filter has a thread size of 52 millimeters. The dimensions of this Nikon product are 2.7 inches by 2.4 inches, and it has a weight of about 14.1 ounces. Take great close-ups and wide-angle pictures with this Nikon lens.

  • Nikkor 35mm f/1.4 Ai-s Great lens!

    This lens is so good that Nikon still produces and sells it brand new to this date. I always wanted to have this lens. It is famous worldwide amongst the old school news paper photographers. The first question almost everybody ask today is: Is this lens sharp? There are way more things about a lens than sharpness. It takes time to get to know the "character" of a lens. How does it respond to tone gradation? color rendition? bouquet at different apertures? and so on... This lens at f/1.4 gives this wonderful dreamy looks and an awesome bouquet that no other lens has! if one only wants sharpness it gets there by f/2.0 and downwards. Manual focus is a breeze with all the light it gathers. Of course it is not easy to focus at f/1.4 for the depth of field is so narrow. It takes knowledge and practice to do it right. It is a pearl! Not selling it and this one is joining my team of lenses that uses 52mm filters in front of it. This lens is very portable and there is no other in the market close to its size and characteristics. "All the sharp lenses" out there are bulky and produces flat images. Nikkor is a champ brand! History tells itself. What brand out there still produces a lens designed and produced since 1971? Yes! none! Nikkor! way to go!

  • One of the Great Nikon vintage lenses

    Being an old Nikon shooter, this lens suits my need for a quality manual focus prime lens. This along with my Nikkor 55mm f1.2 lens shooting incredibly sharp images with my Nikon Df is a joy.

  • Best of the best.

    This is a top of the line lens. It is solid, well-balanced. Has that old substantial feel to it. The barrel focuses like a lens, not like a piece of plastic. This manual lens is far a more pleasurable experience than any of the auto focus versions. That's why I got it.

  • Amazing Nikon lens

    Great IQ but not as great as modern lenses but you don't buy this lens to pixel peep. The craftsmanship is superb and the unique characteristics of the image rendered is special. Buy this lens if your looking for something fun and different. My only complaint is that it is a bit too big and heavy for a 35mm and the weight of the lens on my FM3a feels a little off balanced. Overall I really enjoy this lens
