While expressing beautiful image blur through the large maximum aperture of f/1.2, higher shutter speeds can be used, which maximizes the advantage of the Nikon 1 system. Taking advantage of an angle of view equivalent to a medium-telephoto focal length of approximately 86 mm lens (in 35mm [135] format), it is the optimal lens for authentic image creation of not only portraits, but also snapshots and landscape photos. 

Because this fast lens features a rounded diaphragm opening as well as an extremely shallow depth of field at maximum aperture, it is capable of expressing a large degree of smooth image blur. In this way, you can capture an image that creates a gentle and warm atmosphere, because the background blur will emphasize the subject and softly reproduce the ambience of the entire scene.
