Street smart. With a classic look.

Experience superior quality with its full-frame/FX format prime - one of the smallest and lightest in the NIKOR Z system. Capture street style images with the 28mm perspective (perfect for APS-C size/DX format cameras), or dial down the aperture to f/2.8 for beautiful bokeh. This lens is great for spontaneous moments, whether you’re shooting out on the town or capturing life at home. Nikon has engineered this incredible lens to ensure excellent image quality and optimal performance all while remaining lightweight and truly portable.

All-purpose sensibility.

Whether you're shooting videos, snapshots, portraits or anything in between, the NIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8 (SE) provides a wide range of amazing shots from its 42mm equivalent view on an APS-C size Z camera to its classic 28mm view on a full-frame Z camera. Experience sharper images with less distortion and some of the most vivid colors imaginable!

Special edition design.

With its classic, ‘80s-inspired design details, this lens offers vintage style with a modern twist. Featuring a unique knurling around the control ring, which was inspired by Nikon design drawings, and a typeface and NIKKOR logo that echo the era—this powerful lens is perfect for capturing beautiful photos with timeless appeal.

Nothing weighing you down.

This compact and lightweight lens does not extend or retract, always ready for shots wherever you are. The lens gives photographers great flexibility as a main walk-around lens or a lightweight second lens option. With its fast and smooth autofocus, you can capture stunning images quickly and easily.

Get in close.

With its wide perspective and close focusing distance of 0.63 feet (0.19 meters), you can capture extraordinary detail and depth of field with ease. Whether you're shooting a short film or crafting the perfect portrait, this lens can accommodate your needs with precision and stability. The advanced design features make it easy to maneuver, allowing you to focus on finding the ideal shot without worrying about technical distractions.

Shoot after hours.

The larger Z mount draws even more low-light performance from the wide f/2.8 aperture. Capture the mood of dimly lit situations with clarity and sharpness.

Video savvy.

Designed for photographers and videographers alike, this Professional-grade lens will help you capture shots like never before with its superior optics and flexibility. With its 28mm field of view, you’ll be able to get stable footage every time thanks to its greatly suppressed focus breathing. And make smooth iris adjustments that create a natural shift in brightness to bring your shots to life. With Dual Stepping Motors operating silently so that your audio remains intact and pristine, it’s no wonder why this is the perfect lens for any creative video or photography project!

The multi-focus difference.

This innovative lens is the first of its kind, incorporating multi-focus technology into a non S-line Z lens. The combination of two focus groups and two high-speed, ultra-quiet stepping motors working in tandem takes your focus speeds to another level. What’s more, this system also reduces distortion throughout the frame, giving you clear and precise photos at all ranges.

Customizable control.

The smooth control ring can be customized for the way you shoot. Use it for precise manual focusing or to adjust aperture, ISO or exposure compensation.

Emma I. ★★★★★

I've been taking this lens everywhere since it arrived, and the full-frame sharpness at f/2.8 is incredible for such a compact size. The classic silver ring and knurled focus ring give it a really satisfying tactile feel when I'm shooting street scenes.

Thomas ★★★★★

The classic design caught my eye, but it's the sharp image quality even wide open that really sold me on this lens for everyday shooting. Autofocus is snappy and silent, making it perfect for street photography without drawing attention.

Owen Z. ★★★★★

The manual aperture ring on this 28mm f/2.8 clicks so satisfyingly I find myself fiddling with it even when I don't need to. It focuses close enough to get a nice shot of my coffee on the street, and the classic design matches my older camera body perfectly.
