A fast lens on a budget
The NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.4 enables users to capture stills with outstanding three-dimensional rendering and large bokeh, offering soft, ethereal expressions. This rendering is achieved by taking advantage of the lens's shallow depth of field. The lens is also reliable for shooting indoors or in low-light environments. Increasing shutter speeds reduces blurriness, letting users easily obtain cleaner images at low ISO sensitivity.
The NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.4 is also compatible with full-frame/FX-format mirrorless cameras, allowing users to expand their range of creative expressions on a budget.
Rendering closer to what the human eye sees
With a maximum aperture of f/1.4 and a minimum focus distance of 0.37 m, the NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.4 is perfect for capturing flowers and decorations indoors with bright and beautiful large bokeh to further emphasise subjects.
The standard 50-mm angle of view allows you to narrow the aperture, step back, and capture breathtaking landscapes and portraits. The lens accurately depicts depth, helping capture subjects with a striking presence.
Meanwhile, the lens' maximum aperture allows impressive capture of subjects with soft rendering and shallow depth of field. This exceptional rendering capability is customisable to match creative intentions.
This high optical performance, unique to Z lenses, pursues sharp resolution at the focal plane, realising clear depiction with minimal colour fringing, surpassing other lenses in the same class1.
Maximum aperture with a compact and portable design
Weighing around 420 g and only 74.5 X 86.5 mm in size, the NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.4 easily fits into an everyday bag, perfect for casual outings and users on the go.
Perfect for photos, designed for video
Whether for stills or video, the NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.4 is designed with built-in versatility. It is designed to suppress focus breathing2 , providing a natural-looking image with a constant angle of view even while adjusting focus. Adopting a stepping motor (STM) enables fast and quiet AF operations, even while recording in quiet environments.
The lens is ideal for shooting on a gimbal, maintaining balance with minimal shifting to the centre of gravity. While recording, the focus moves consistently relative to the focus or control ring's speed, ensuring precision in focus.
