AF-S DX Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G

The AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G is a normal-length prime lens designed for Nikon DX-format cameras, providing a 52.5mm equivalent focal length with an aperture range of f/1.8 to f/22. The lens features a bright f/1.8 maximum aperture that performs well in low-light conditions and enables selective focus techniques through shallow depth of field control. The optical design incorporates one aspherical element that reduces spherical aberrations and distortion while maintaining sharp imagery with accurate rendering.

A Super Integrated Coating applied to individual lens elements suppresses internal reflections and ghosting for improved contrast and color accuracy in strong lighting conditions. The Silent Wave Motor delivers quick and quiet autofocus performance with full-time manual focus override capability, while the rear focusing design maintains the lens's overall length during use. The rounded seven-blade diaphragm produces a pleasing out-of-focus quality that complements the shallow depth of field capabilities of this compact 200-gram lens.
