Ideal in photography and film The Venus Optics Argus 35mm f/0.95 APO FF for Nikon Z is an ideal choice for both photographers and filmmakers. The designers at Venus Optics have made sure that video makers can get the most out of this exceptionally bright "thirty-five". The glass offers very little "breathing". Thanks to that, when changing the focus point during the recording of a shot, the level of instability of the angle of view will be reduced to a minimum. Filmmakers will also appreciate the stepless aperture adjustment, which can be quickly changed to a step variant, more appreciated in photography, if necessary. Fine-tuned in every detail The convenience of the Venus Optics Argus 35mm f/0.95 APO FF lens is complemented by Internal Focusing technology, which ensures that all lens movement takes place inside the housing of the unit. Changing the focus does not affect its length, giving you better stability and greater comfort. It's also ideal for people who often reach for filters, sunshades or other lens-mounted accessories. Importantly, Internal Focusing is an even better way to protect your lens from dust, which gets in much easier with designs that offer "external focusing".
