About the Nikon NIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8 (SE) Lens (Z-Mount)

Introducing the Nikon NIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8 (SE), a special edition prime lens that beautifully marries classic 1980s aesthetics with modern optical excellence. As one of the smallest and lightest full-frame (FX format) prime lenses in the Nikon Z system, it is engineered for creators who want to stay nimble and spontaneous without sacrificing image quality. Whether you are building out a vintage-inspired kit or simply want an ultra-compact everyday lens, this prime delivers trusted performance for Australian photographers.
On a full-frame Z camera, it provides a classic 28mm perspective that is widely favoured for street photography, architecture, interiors, and situational portraits. When paired with an APS-C (DX format) body like the Z fc or Z 50, it performs as a 42mm equivalent lens. This natural field of view makes it an incredibly versatile, all-purpose choice for vlogging, snapshots, and everyday storytelling.
A true homage to the golden era of photography, the Special Edition (SE) design brings a touch of retro style to any Z series camera. It features unique knurling around the control ring based on original Nikon design drawings from the '80s, striking a perfect balance of form and function. Complete with a classic typeface and the vintage NIKKOR logo, this lens is as much a joy to look at as it is to shoot with.
