- Z-Mount Lens/Full-Frame Format: Compatible with FX-format Nikon Z mirrorless cameras, and provides a 25.5-42mm equivalent focal length on DX-format cameras.
- Aperture Range: f/2.8 to f/22: Constant bright aperture throughout the zoom range for low-light shooting and depth of field control.
- Stepping Motor AF System: Quick, quiet autofocus performance for both stills and video.
- Internal Focus and Zoom Design: The lens does not extend during zooming or focusing, making it ideal for gimbal use and handheld shooting.
- Programmable Control Ring: Customisable for smooth, click-less adjustments, useful for video work.
- Dust- and Drip-Resistant Construction: Built to withstand challenging environments, with an antifouling coating on the front element to repel dirt and fingerprints.
- Rounded 9-Blade Diaphragm: Contributes to smooth, creamy bokeh.
Lightweight and Compact Design
Despite its bright f/2.8 aperture, the NIKKOR Z 17-28mm f/2.8 remains compact and lightweight, making it ideal for all-day handheld use. It’s perfect for creators who need a portable lens without compromising on speed and image quality. Compared to the NIKKOR Z 14-24mm f/2.8 S, this lens is 30% lighter and accepts more common 67mm front filters, making it more accessible and travel-friendly. Its internal zooming design prevents the lens from extending, which is especially useful when paired with gimbals for video work.
Smooth and Silent Autofocus
The stepping motor AF system ensures fast, accurate, and silent autofocus, making it well-suited for both photography and videography. The internal focusing system means the lens doesn't change in length while focusing, maintaining balance when shooting. Additionally, the lens features focus breathing suppression, keeping the field of view consistent when adjusting focus, a crucial feature for video.
Ultra-Wide Flexibility
This lens offers a broad 17-28mm focal range, perfect for capturing sweeping landscapes, dramatic cityscapes, architecture, and interiors. The constant f/2.8 aperture maintains consistent exposure throughout the zoom range and enhances its low-light capabilities. Its bright aperture and ultra-wide focal length also make it well-suited for astrophotography, allowing you to capture the night sky with clarity and minimal distortion.
Advanced Optical Design
The NIKKOR Z 17-28mm f/2.8 is constructed with advanced optical elements to deliver exceptional image quality. It includes two extra-low dispersion (ED) elements and one Super ED element to minimise chromatic aberrations and colour fringing. Additionally, three aspherical elements correct spherical aberrations and distortion, ensuring sharp, accurate rendering across the frame while helping to keep the lens compact and lightweight.
Programmable Control Ring and Professional Build
The programmable control ring offers intuitive adjustment over a variety of settings, including manual focus, aperture, and exposure compensation. The lens also features an electromagnetic aperture mechanism that provides more consistent exposure control, especially during fast continuous shooting.
The robust construction includes dust- and moisture-resistant sealing, with an antifouling coating on the front element that resists smudging and dirt, making it easier to clean after shoots in challenging environments.
