Nikon NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR Lens

The Nikon NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR is a compact and adaptable zoom lens, equivalent to 24-75mm, specifically designed for DX-format Z-mount mirrorless cameras. It offers a versatile zoom range that spans from wide-angle to portrait lengths, making it ideal for a variety of everyday photography scenarios. The lens features an advanced optical design that includes aspherical and extra-low dispersion elements, effectively minimizing various aberrations to ensure sharper and clearer images across the entire zoom range. Additionally, a Super Integrated Coating has been applied to reduce ghosting and flare, enhancing contrast and color fidelity, particularly in bright or backlit environments.

The lens's adaptable focal length range is further enhanced by Vibration Reduction image stabilization, which effectively reduces the effects of camera shake by up to 4.5 stops, allowing for sharper handheld images. A stepping motor ensures fast, quiet, and accurate autofocus performance, complemented by full-time manual focus override, making it suitable for both still photography and video recording. Furthermore, a programmable control ring allows for intuitive adjustments to various camera and exposure settings.

• Standard zoom is designed for DX-format Nikon Z-mount mirrorless cameras and provides a 24-75mm equivalent focal length range.
  
  
• One extra-low dispersion element reduces color fringing and chromatic aberrations for improved clarity and color accuracy.
  
  
• Four aspherical elements minimize spherical aberrations and distortion throughout the zoom range for greater sharpness and accurate rendering.
  
  
• Super Integrated Coating suppresses flare and ghosting for improved contrast and color fidelity when working in strong lighting conditions.
  
  
• Stepping motor delivers impressively smooth, quiet, and fast autofocus performance that is well-suited to both stills and video applications. Full-time manual focus override is also possible and an internal focusing design is used, where only the internal lens groups are moved during focusing, to maintain the overall length of the lens during use and to promote faster focusing speeds.
  
  
• Vibration Reduction image stabilization minimizes the appearance of camera shake by up to 4.5 stops for sharper handheld shooting.
  
  
• Programmable Control Ring is, by default, set to adjust manual focus but can also be used to control aperture or exposure compensation.
  
  
• Specialized electromagnetic aperture mechanism provides greater exposure control stability that is especially beneficial when working with fast continuous shooting rates.
  
  
• Rounded seven-blade diaphragm promotes a pleasing out of focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field techniques.
