Nikon NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 Lens

The Nikon NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 serves as an exemplary everyday lens, offering a versatile prime that bridges the gap between wide-angle and standard perspectives, complemented by a bright f/2 maximum aperture. This unique focal length is sufficiently wide for impromptu photography while remaining narrow enough for portrait and selective focus applications. Furthermore, the lens's compact and lightweight design enhances its suitability for casual shooting, making it an excellent choice for both FX and DX-format camera systems.

• Wide-normal prime lens is designed for FX-format Nikon Z-mount mirrorless cameras and can also be used with DX-format models, where it provides a 60mm equivalent focal length.
  
  
• Bright f/2 maximum aperture excels in difficult lighting conditions and also offers increased control over depth of field for isolating subjects using depth of field.
  
  
• Two aspherical elements are featured in the optical design and help to limit spherical aberrations and distortion in order to achieve high 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.
  
  
• 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 nine-blade diaphragm promotes a pleasing out of focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques.
