Nikon has launched two new lenses, the NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.2 S and the NIKKOR Z 14-24mm f/2.8 S, expanding the Nikon Z mirrorless system.
NIKKOR Z: the NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.2 S, the first f/1.2 prime lens in the Z series, and the NIKKOR Z 14-24mm f/2.8 S, the world’s smallest f/2.8 full-frame wide-angle zoom lens (among full-frame wide-angle zoom lenses with a shortest focal length of 14 mm and a maximum aperture of f/2.8, as of September 2020. Statement based on Nikon research). These lenses offer significant functionality for the ever-evolving Nikon Z mirrorless system.
The NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.2 S lens holds a special place in the Nikon Z lineup. Thanks to its incredible resolving power, fast and reliable autofocus, and exceptional design, this professional standard-focal-length lens is already a legend. From elaborate bokeh to finely detailed point light sources, photographers and videomakers will be able to explore, with the timeless classic 50mm focal length, new levels of depth and detail. This lens takes full advantage of the exceptional features of Nikon’s Z-Mount bayonet mount, which allows it to capture all available light in the scene, and the maximum aperture of f/1.2 allows for perfect control over depth of field.
The NIKKOR Z 14-24mm f/2.8 S lens complements the NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S and the NIKKOR Z 70-200MM F/2.8 VR S, completing the line of Nikon Z lenses with high performance. Superb rendering and a compact structure are the distinctive features of this lens, in addition to high-quality lenses, the wide Z-Mount bayonet mount, and the constant f/2.8 aperture, which allow for exciting performance even compared to fixed focal length lenses. Sagittal coma flare is effectively controlled, even when shooting at maximum aperture, while ghosting and flare are well neutralized to achieve stunning sharpness. Photographers and videomakers can therefore enhance all the beauty of every architectural composition, landscape, and nightscape they choose to capture.
