Nikon Z-mount Lenses : 24-70mm F4, 50mm F1.8 and 35mm F1.8
Nikon releases the Z-NIKKOR 24-70mm f/4, Z-NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8 lens, Z-NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8 lenses and the Mount Adapter FTZ, and develops the NIKKOR Z 58mm f/0.95 S NOCT.
Nikon has three Nikkor Z-mount lenses available at and slightly after the launch of the Nikon Z6 and Nikon Z7 full frame mirrorless cameras. The ‘S’ represents the subtle silver ring around the lens, according to Nikon.
The NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S and NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S will be available September 27 for the suggested retail prices (SRP) of $999.95* and $849.95*, respectively. The NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.8 S lens will be available in late October for the SRP of $599.95*. The Mount Adapter FTZ will be available September 27 for $249.95* SRP (Additional $100 savings when purchased together with a Z 7 or Z 6, through 12/31/2018).

NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S primary features
- Standard focal-length range from wide-angle 24 mm to medium-telephoto 70 mm can effectively cover a wide variety of scenes and subjects with rendering performance that will change the perception of zoom lenses with a maximum aperture of f/4
- Optical design that suppresses variations in aberrations from shooting distances of close-up to infinity, demonstrating sharp resolution even in the peripheral areas of the frame from the maximum aperture, and fine point-image reproduction
- Achieved a minimum focus distance of just 0.3 m across the zoom range
- Adoption of an ED glass element, an aspherical ED lens element, and three aspherical lens elements
- Nano Crystal Coat adopted to suppress ghost and flare
- Has the size needed to deliver an extremely high standard of optical performance, yet provides outstanding portability; employs a retracting mechanism that can be set on/off without pressing a button and reduces total length for a compact lens that can easily be taken anywhere
- In consideration to a dust- and drip-resistance, the entire lens, including moving parts, has been sealed
- Fluorine coat applied to front lens surface
NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S primary features
- Rendering performance that redefines perceptions of what a 35 mm f/1.8 lens can do
- Sharp resolution even in the peripheral areas of the frame from the maximum aperture, provide effective suppression of sagittal coma flare that enables superb point-image reproduction when capturing point light sources in night landscapes, and the soft and natural bokeh characteristics expected of a fast (bright) lens
- Adoption of a new multi-focusing system achieves quiet, fast, and accurate AF control, as well as high image-forming performance at any focus distance
- Adoption of two ED glass elements, and three aspherical lens elements
- Nano Crystal Coat adopted to suppress ghost and flare
- In consideration to a dust- and drip-resistance, the entire lens, including moving parts, has been sealed
NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.8 S primary features
- Superior rendering for exquisite image expression that redefines perceptions of what a 50 mm f/1.8 lens can do
- Thorough suppression of axial chromatic aberration ensures superior resolution with faithful reproduction of the fine textures in subjects, even from maximum aperture
- Sharp and clear rendering of details from the center of the frame to the peripheral edges, regardless of the shooting distance
- The soft and beautiful bokeh characteristics at any shooting distance possible only with a fast (bright) lens
- Adoption of two ED glass elements, and two aspherical lens elements
- Nano Crystal Coat adopted to suppress ghost and flare
- Adoption of a new, powerful stepping motor (STM) enables quiet and accurate AF control with both still-image and movie recording
- In consideration to a dust- and drip-resistance, the entire lens, including moving parts, has been sealed
Mount Adapter FTZ primary features
- Shooting with AE, or AF/AE, is available with approximately 360 NIKKOR F lenses from AI type onwards*
- The unique characteristics of NIKKOR F mount lenses can be applied to Z mount system image quality
- In-camera VR (Vibration Reduction) available when attaching a NIKKOR F lens without built-in VR; in-camera VR also performs well with movie recording
- When attaching a NIKKOR F lens with built-in VR, lens VR and in-camera VR effectively work together to compensate for camera shake by enabling three-axis VR
- Various sections of the adapter are effectively sealed to ensure dust- and drip-resistant performance equivalent to that of NIKKOR F lenses
- Designed to be lightweight yet tough, with consideration for superior operability as a part of a complete system
- *Shooting with AF/AE is not possible with some lenses
Development of the new NIKKOR Z 58mm f/0.95 S Noct lens that pursues ultimate optical performance
The NIKKOR Z 58mm f/0.95 S Noct that Nikon is currently developing will be a large aperture, standard 58 mm prime focal-length, the fastest lens in Nikon’s history*, manual-focus lens positioned at the very top of the S-Line. It will symbolize the Nikon Z mount system’s new dimension in optical performance.
It has inherited the design concept behind the original AI Noct-Nikkor 58mm f/1.2, a standard prime lens released in 1977, named for “Nocturne” (a musical composition inspired by or evocative of the night), and popular for its ability to finely reproduce point light sources as point images. This new Noct lens that is currently in development will take advantage of advanced design flexibility, afforded by the Z mount, pursuing ultimate optical performance. Development continues with the goals of achieving an extremely fast maximum aperture of f/0.95, offering the ultimate in NIKKOR rendering performance with superior detail and sharpness. Additionally, the goal is to achieve beautiful blur characteristics, or bokeh, with good continuity, while ensuring outstanding point-image reproduction capabilities for more compelling, three-dimensional imaging.
- *Within interchangeable lenses for Nikon SLR cameras and Advanced Cameras with Interchangeable Lenses.
