At a Glance
This 35 mm wide-angle prime with an f/1.8 maximum aperture fits full-frame Nikon F cameras. The wide opening shortens shutter times and produces a shallow depth of field, and an optical stabilizer adds support. A 20 cm minimum focus distance and 1:2.5 magnification make close-ups possible. At 450 g, it suits street photography, reportage and everyday use.
