Nikon Camera Lens NIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8 [Nikon Z / Single Focal Length Lens]

Product Specifications

Basic Information

Product Features

A cost-effective, full-frame-compatible compact, lightweight single focal length lens that allows you to enjoy rich bokeh expression on a daily basis

- Brightness of F/2.8 maximum aperture and soft bokeh expression

The large, natural bokeh created by the brightness of the maximum aperture of F/2.8 and shallow depth of field can be utilized to impressively accentuate the main subject captured with high image quality. Especially when shooting at close range, you can enjoy the bokeh expression that only a bright single-focal length lens can produce. The bright lens also allows faster shutter speeds, which are effective in reducing blurring when shooting hand-held, making it easy to enjoy snapshots that take advantage of the high image quality.

- Aspherical Lens (2 elements)

Aspherical lenses with non-spherical curved surfaces on one or both sides can effectively correct various aberrations such as distortion and spherical aberration. Distortion is an aberration (image distortion) caused by the difference in magnification depending on the image height (distance from the center of the image) when the subject is formed through the lens, and can be corrected by continuously changing the refractive power using an aspheric surface from the periphery of the lens center. In addition, a single aspherical lens can provide an aberration correction effect equivalent to that of multiple spherical lenses, making a significant contribution to lens size and weight reduction compared to spherical lenses.

- Easy to use for snapshots, 28mm wide-angle single focal length for dynamic capture of space

The 28mm focal length is a favorite angle of view among street snapshooters because of its wide angle of view and ability to create powerful spatial expressions by taking advantage of its perspective. It is useful in a wide variety of situations, from casual scenes in landscapes or on street corners to shooting table photos in cafes and other places.

- Focal length that is easy to use for Nikon DX-format Z series camera users

When mounted on a Nikon DX-format Z series camera, the lens has a focal length equivalent to 42mm (35mm film format equivalent), making it an easy-to-use standard focal length lens for a wide range of scenes. A lens in the standard focal length range is highly versatile and can be used for a wide variety of purposes, from close-up object photography to striking portraits that take advantage of bokeh, to street-corner snapshots.

- Smallest and lightest*1 body to maximize the mobility of Nikon mirrorless cameras

The short flange back of the Z mount system makes it the smallest and lightest*1 single-focal length NIKKOR Z wide-angle lens available to match the compact Z series cameras. With a weight of approx. 155g and a length of approx. 43mm*2, the lens is designed to reduce the size and weight of photographic equipment, while at the same time providing the high image quality that only the large-aperture Z mount can deliver, making it easier to carry around with you. This allows you to enjoy high quality photography at any time of the day.

- Excellent short-range performance with a minimum focusing distance of 0.19m

With a minimum focusing distance of only 0.19m, you can get very close to your subject and capture powerful images. Even everyday snapshots and familiar landscapes can be upgraded to attractive works of art simply by shooting them. The camera allows you to capture the exact expression you are looking for, from bold tabletop shots of the main subject to dynamic shots that take advantage of blurred backgrounds and perspectives.

- Non-sinking body for quick response to shutter release opportunities

The non-sinking body eliminates the need to release the diaphragm, allowing you to take a picture immediately even when you have a sudden shutter release opportunity. This is advantageous for snapshots where you don't want to miss the best moment.
