Nikon NIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8 prime lens features :
– The smallest and lightest body among NIKKOR Z prime lenses, with a length of approx. 43 mm and weight of approx. 155 g.
– The fast f/2.8 maximum aperture reduces the effects of camera shake, even during hand-held shooting.
– The focal length becomes 42 mm (equivalent to 35mm [135] format) when mounted on a DX-format camera.
– A minimum focus distance of 0.19 m allows users to get close to their subjects for dynamic photography.
– Adoption of a multi-focusing system*1 realizes natural rendering across the entire shooting range, as well as fast and accurate AF control, while maintaining a smaller body size.
– Designed with consideration of dust- and drip-resistant performance so that it can be taken anywhere with greater confidence.
– Functions such as aperture and exposure compensation can be assigned to the control ring.
– Developed with consideration for video recording with extremely quiet operation, effective focus-breathing compensation, and stable exposure.
“The NIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8 is perfect not only for snapshots taking advantage of the 28 mm wide angle of view, but also close-up photography utilizing its minimum focus distance of 0.19 m. As a fast, wide-angle lens that can be carried around easily, it is ideal for everyday snapshots including landscapes, cityscapes, and still photography. Furthermore, its high cost-performance makes it an ideal choice for a broad range of Z series users, from amateur photographers to professional photographers.”
