NIKON Nikkor Z DX 16-50mm f/2.8 VR
Unleash your creativity with the high-performance f/2.8 DX zoom lens, which adds excellent low-light capabilities, beautifully blurred bokeh and freeze-action speed to your toolkit.
Big, beautiful bokeh at any focal length
This compact DX lens produces impressive bokeh at f/2.8, and the versatile zoom range offers many ways to use it. Try a 50mm photo with bokeh in the background and foreground: your subject will shine as the world around you disappears.
Scenes with sharp detail
Shooting with the maximum aperture at f/2.8 is great if you want portraits with smooth, flattering skin tones. Or shrink the aperture and increase the depth of field for sharp, detailed shots of landscapes, street scenes, architecture, and more.
Versatile wide-angle zoom lens
With such a compact and versatile fast zoom lens, the options are yours. The 16-50mm focal length range (equivalent to 24-75mm in 35mm/FX format) gives you plenty of room to play with angles when capturing diverse scenes.
Short minimum focusing distance
You can get very close without sacrificing sharpness. The minimum focusing distance is 0.15 m at 16 mm and 0.25 m at 50 mm.
Fast and bright aperture of f/2.8
High-resolution optics combine with a constant aperture of f/2.8 to make this lens a tireless piece of equipment. You can capture more detail at lower ISO and use faster shutter speeds to freeze motion, even when the light is dimming.
Powerful vibration reduction with lens shift
Just grab and go. With up to 4.5 stops of VR image stabilisation, this fast zoom lens stays steady. You'll be able to take sharper handheld photos in low light and record clearer footage while walking and filming.
