What is the nikon z 35mm f 1 2 s good for?

The Nikon Z 35mm f/1.2 S is a large, very fast 35mm for low light and shallow focus. On full frame it gives a natural, wide-ish view that suits environmental portraits, where you want to show where someone is, as well as groups. I'd also reach for it indoors and in dim evenings, where f/1.2 keeps your shutter speed sensible.

It fits full-frame bodies like the Nikon Z8 or Nikon Z6 II. On APS-C it frames like about 52mm, which is a good portrait view, and f/1.2 gives about the depth of field of f/1.8 there. The Nikon Z50 II is a sensible pairing for that. For the sums behind those numbers, see crop factor and field of view. For choosing focal lengths for people, see portraits.
