The NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.8 S is an S-Line lens that achieves optical performance remarkably superior to that of conventional f/1.8 lenses due to the lens arrangement made possible by the new Z lens mount.
Outstanding rendering performance is attained through resolving power that provides sharp reproduction of details across the entire frame at any focus distance, soft and beautiful bokeh characteristics even at short distances, intensively reduced axial chromatic aberration, and superb point-image reproduction. Nano Crystal Coat that effectively reduces ghost and flare is also employed to ensure clear, sharp rendering even under backlit conditions.
The newly adopted control ring, to which functions such as focus (M/A), aperture and exposure compensation can be assigned, enables comfortable shooting with its superior operational feel.
The lens body was designed carefully considering dust- and drip-resistant performance, providing enhanced reliability.
