AT A GLANCE
Less than one inch thick, featherlight and packed with image quality, the NIKKOR Z 26mm f/2.8 is a pancake prime born for the streets. It transforms your camera into the smallest version of itself, encouraging you to shoot in more places, more often. And it rewards you with lifelike sharpness, beautifully blurred backgrounds, versatile low light performance and a creative field of view.
- 26mm Ideal Street Focal Length
- f/2.8Â Bright, Fast Aperture
- Prime Fixed Focal Length
- Pancake Slim, Flat Design
- Z Mount The Largest Diameter Full Frame
A space-saving new focusing system uses a stepping motor (STM) to move all the lens elements in unison. This reduces the overall barrel length and produces remarkable consistency across the focus range from approx. 8 inches to infinity.
Shoot wide open at f/2.8 to give your photos and videos shallow depth of field. Make sharp subjects stand out against softly blurred backgrounds with large, round bokeh.
The combination of the larger Z mount and the fast f/2.8 aperture lets in ample light, so you can turn up the shutter speed to prevent blur or shoot videos in whatever light is available.
Get as close as 8 inches from your subject and use the wide 26mm perspective, shallow depth of field and lifelike sharpness to transform the ordinary into extraordinary.
The included lens hood's clever design both protects the front element and accepts convenient 52mm threaded filters.
Smooth control ring:Â Manually focus, adjust aperture, ISO sensitivity or exposure compensation.
Comfortable, sturdy design:Â Metal parts and components, tactile knurling and modern Z series design.
Pairs beautifully with any Z series camera.
