Tailored for Nikon mirrorless cameras, the Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S lens is the perfect go-to lens when you’d rather not change lenses. Its versatile focal length captures a broad and useful variety of scenes and subjects, from sweeping landscapes and interiors to candid travel snapshots, live music, and portraits.
Featuring cutting-edge optics, this lens impresses with every shot. Thanks to a larger mount and short flange distance, it outperforms conventional lenses with the same specs in low light. ED glass, aspherical ED, and aspherical lens elements minimise aberrations to produce distortion-free images, whether shooting up close or towards infinity. You’ll capture sharp, high-resolution details from the centre to the edges of the frame, even with the aperture wide open.
