Wide-Angle Prime for Nikon F
The Rokinon RK35MAFN is a 35 mm f/1.4 manual-focus lens built for Nikon F-mount DSLRs. Its wide maximum aperture suits low-light work and shallow depth of field, while the 63.1-degree angle of view covers full-frame and DX sensors. An automatic chip enables aperture control and focus confirmation from the camera body.
Verify Mount and Filter Size
Confirm that your DSLR uses the Nikon F mount and can meter with manual-focus lenses that have an electronic chip. The front thread measures 77 mm, so any filters or hoods must match that diameter. Minimum focus distance is one foot, which may limit close-up work compared with dedicated macro optics.
Consistent Rendering at Wide Apertures
The optical formula uses 12 elements in 10 groups, including one aspherical and two high-refraction elements, to control aberrations across the f/1.4 to f/22 range. This construction maintains edge-to-edge sharpness and contrast during extended shooting sessions, whether stopping down for landscapes or staying wide open for portraits.

Questions about this item
Does the box include filters or a lens hood, or must they be purchased separately?
The lens has a 77 mm filter thread and ships with front and rear caps; filters and a hood are sold separately.
Which focal-length version should I choose for a Nikon DX body?
The 35 mm focal length gives a 52.5 mm equivalent field of view on DX sensors, making it a natural normal lens for that format.
What does the f/1.4 aperture actually deliver on a full-frame Nikon?
At f/1.4 the lens provides a 63.1-degree angle of view and very shallow depth of field, useful for low-light and subject isolation.
