Nikon NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.2 S Lens

Product Description

Unlock exceptional sharpness, subject separation, and low-light performance with the Nikon NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.2 S Lens, a premium S-Line prime designed for Nikon Z-series mirrorless cameras. Its exceptionally bright f/1.2 maximum aperture creates an extremely shallow depth of field and smooth, natural-looking bokeh while allowing photographers to work confidently in challenging light. Nikon positions the lens as a fast 50mm prime for portraiture, street photography, landscapes, nightscapes, and other creative applications.

The optical design combines 17 elements in 15 groups, including three aspherical elements and two ED elements, while Nano Crystal Coat and ARNEO Coat help suppress flare and ghosting for clear, high-contrast images. A multi-focus system with two STM stepping motors provides fast, precise, and quiet autofocus, while internal focusing helps maintain a consistent lens profile during operation.

For videographers, the NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.2 S offers quiet focusing, smooth exposure control, and minimal focus breathing, making it well suited to interviews, cinematic sequences, and first-person perspectives. Its customizable control ring, shortcut button, and information display also provide practical control during demanding shoots.
