Expand your creativity.

Add real depth to your photos and videos with the shallow depth of field and beautiful bokeh of an f/1.7 aperture—a feat not possible with typical kit lenses or the digital effects of smartphones.

Better low light photos and videos.

Shoot in less light than a typical kit lens or smartphone requires. Capture more details with lower ISO settings, and prevent motion blur with faster shutter speeds.

Versatile wide field of view.

The NIKKOR Z DX 24mm f/1.7 captures nearly the same view as a 35mm full-frame lens, one of the most popular focal lengths due to its natural, familiar perspective and versatility.

Short working distance.

Capture subjects as close as 4.7 inches from the front of the lens—great for revealing fine details and textures, food photography and recording video in tight spaces.

Technology

  • AS_Large.png

    Aspherical Lens

    A lens with a curved, non-spherical surface. Used to reduce aberrations and enable a more compact lens size. Aspherical lenses minimize coma and other types of lens aberrations, even when used at the widest aperture. They are particularly useful in correcting distortion in wide-angle lenses and help contribute to a lighter, more compact design by reducing the number of standard (spherical) elements necessary. Aspherical lens elements correct these distortions by continuously changing the refractive index from the center of the lens.

    Stepping Motor

    NIKKOR Z lenses use a stepping motor for fast, accurate, smooth, quiet autofocus with reduced wobbling. This quiet drive system makes the lenses ideal for use when shooting video.

    Electromagnetic Diaphragm Mechanism

    An electromagnetic diaphragm mechanism in the lens barrel provides highly accurate electronic diaphragm or aperture blade control when using auto exposure during continuous shooting.
