Nikkor Z 35mm F1.2 | F1.2 | 1/2000 sec | ISO 64 Photo: Richard Butler We've had a chance to get our hands back on Nikon's new Nikkor Z 35mm F1.2 S, in better weather this time. Nikon promotes 'environmental portraits' as one of the key uses for the lens, so we took the opportunity to shoot some, in a variety of lighting conditions. We shot at wider apertures than we'd typically use, to make it easier to see what the F1.2 maximum aperture allows the lens to do. The lens is a pre-production sample, so we've only been allowed to publish out-of-camera JPEGs. We turned all the camera corrections off and confirmed that the camera wasn't correcting distortion or vignetting behind the scenes, so we can be confident they give a realistic impression of how the lens behaves. We've added 20 new samples to the end of the gallery.
