Paul Carroll has just posted a full review of the newly released Nikon Nikkor Z 35mm F1.8 S lens (Amazon/ B&H/ Adorama) at the DXOMark.com. He tested this new lens on the high-resolution 45.7MP Nikon Z 7 mirrorless camera and marked an overall score of 38 points and an impressive sharpness sub-score of 30 PMpix at f/4.
Conclusion from DXOMark, “Top-performing Nikon 35mm lens …indeed, the Nikon Z 35mm f/1.8 S is the highest-scoring Nikon 35mm lens we’ve tested to date. Its key strength is sharpness, with good performance at the maximum aperture and exceptionally uniform resolution at the mid-apertures. This said, it doesn’t quite match such third-party options as the Sigma 35mm f/1.4 A and the Tamron SP 35mm f/1.8 Di, which achieve better sharpness when tested on the lower-resolution 36.3Mp Nikon D800E, compared to the Nikkor Z lens on the 45.7Mp Nikon Z 7. Overall, however, Nikon Z-system shooters who are looking for a 35mm prime can rest assured that the native Nikon Z 35mm f/1.8 S lens is an optically excellent choice…”
