Nikon Nikkor Z 40mm f/2.0
Nikon Z, full sizeProduct details
The Nikkor Z 40mm f/2 is an ultra-compact prime lens that you can rely on with any Z camera in nearly any situation. It is wide enough for street work, landscapes, and interiors, yet tight enough for authentic portraits and snapshots. It features a bright maximum aperture of f/2, which is sufficient for low-light conditions, freezes fast action, and separates your subject from the background with a beautiful bokeh effect. The Nikkor Z 40mm f/2 sits between the two coveted focal lengths of 35mm and 50mm, combining the strengths of both. It captures natural-looking portraits and close-ups like a 50mm lens, while also being wide enough for indoor shots, street photography, or crowded scenes like a 35mm lens. On a DX-format Z camera, it has a field of view equivalent to 60mm, making it another versatile focal length for everything from portraits to street photography.
