Characterized by its fast maximum aperture and advanced optical design, the Nikon F-mount Milvus 35mm f/1.4 ZF.2 from ZEISS is a versatile wide-angle prime well-suited to an array of subjects, ranging from portraiture to landscape shooting. Its bright f/1.4 maximum aperture greatly benefits working in difficult lighting conditions and also offers enhanced control over depth of field for using selective focus techniques. Complementing the focusing control is a sophisticated Distagon-type optical design, which employs one rear aspherical element and five anomalous partial dispersion elements to control both spherical and chromatic aberrations for improved sharpness and clarity. An enhanced ZEISS T* anti-reflective coating has also been applied to significantly reduce ghosting and lens flare for improved contrast and colour fidelity.

The manual focus design is complemented by a rubberised focus ring for fine-tuned, precise control over your focus position. Additionally, Milvus-series lenses also feature an equally aesthetic and durable frosted, anodised metal lens-barrel surface along with a weather-sealed construction to protect against dust and moisture.

• Wide-angle prime is designed for FX-format Nikon F-mount cameras, however, can also be used with DX models where it provides a 52.5mm equivalent focal length.
• Impressively bright f/1.4 maximum aperture is well-suited for working in low-light conditions and also provides greater control over the focus position when using shallow depth of field techniques.
• Distagon optical concept affords high sharpness, well-corrected image quality from edge-to-edge, and very low field curvature.
• Five anomalous partial dispersion elements are used to significantly reduce colour fringing and chromatic aberrations for increased clarity and colour fidelity.
• One aspherical element controls distortion and spherical aberrations in order to produce greater sharpness and more accurate rendering.
• ZEISS T* anti-reflective coating has been applied to each lens surface to help minimize reflections and provide greater contrast and colour fidelity.
• Floating elements system helps to maintain consistent image quality throughout the entire focusing range, from 11.8" to infinity.
• Manual focus design is benefitted by focusing and depth of field scales along with hard stops at both infinity and minimum focusing positions.
• Manual aperture ring has clicked indicators throughout aperture range. Using the included De-Click Tool, this ring can be mechanically 'de-clicked' for smooth, silent
• rotation throughout the aperture range; making it ideal for video applications.
• Weather-resistant construction includes internal seals to guard against dust and moisture as well as a blue sealing ring at the lens mount to protect the lens-camera interface.
• All-metal lens barrel has a frosted, anodized surface along with a rubberized focusing ring for both durability and improved tactile control.
