Nikon just announced the NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.4, a lightweight prime lens with a wide and bright f/1.4 aperture. An affordable lens is compact enough to take anywhere, while offering a versatile and classic focal length that’s ideal for portraits, landscapes, street snaps, travel, still life and more.
The large f/1.4 aperture of this lens affords users the ability to create images and video with three-dimensional emphasis and naturally soft backgrounds that draw the viewers’ attention to a subject.
The NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.4 lens features a compact, comfortable and lightweight design, measuring approximately 2.9 in x 3.4 in (74.5 × 86.5 mm) and weighing only 14.8 oz (420 g). The lens is engineered with a premium feel and superb handling, featuring a dedicated focus ring and a customizable control ring.
Additional features of the NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.4
- Lets users get as near as 14.5 in (0.37 m) from the subject, which is great for flowers, still life and food photography.
- Helps to create a natural, circular bokeh for a pleasing out of focus area.
- Minimizes the shift of the angle of view when adjusting the focus.
- Click-less control ring and near silent lens drive thanks to the use of STM motors.
- Designed with careful consideration for dust- and drip-resistant performance*
