Nikon Z 40mm f2 SE FX Lens

With a lightweight build, and a superior optical performance, the NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 (SE) lens is perfectly suited for shooting portraits and other still subjects, impressing users no matter the setting. The constant maximum aperture of f/2, allows photographers to create the most beautifully round-shaped bokeh and its 40mm standard focal length emphasises the primary subject.

The NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 (SE) lens also inherits its design from the classic NIKKOR lenses, which were released in the same period as the Nikon FM2 film camera - the heritage model that inspired the Z fc. Its arrival expands the choice of lenses, which are suited to the Z fc’s retro design.

Its compact size and lightweight nature means it doesn’t only look good, but is also perfect for those on the move. Meanwhile, its high-speed and accurate Auto Focus alongside its dust and drip resistant body allows the lens to blend into any lifestyle, enhancing the joy of shooting.
