A classic focal length, the 'nifty fifty'. This lens will allow you to achieve impressive brightness, depth and detail in your images when shooting on a Nikon Mirrorless camera. This lens has so much to offer photographers and videographers. The f1.2 aperture of the Z 50mm lens gives so many opportunities to experiment and play with light. It is particularly helpful in poor lighting when combined with the large Z mount - you’ll find it easy to get the shot you need. Backlit subjects are no bother. Nikon’s ARNEO and Nano Crystal Coatings will near eradicate ghosting and flare to give you clear images.

The lens will offer up so much to anyone looking to create video. Create powerful scenes with vast control over the depth of field. Quiet and precise AF means you can utilise the camera's abilities with minimal focus breathing. A smooth and customisable control ring adjusts with the right amount of torque for accurate adjustment. Fluid control over your exposure allows you to steadily shift from light to dark.

A superior build offers worry-free durability. All moving parts in the barrel are tightly sealed to keep dust and moisture out with rubber sealing around the metal lens mount. This full-frame lens will focus at rapid speeds with steady and precise movement. The lens has been designed to give you a fast rendering even close up, or with a shallow depth of field.

Understanding: Aperture

Aperture is the opening in a camera lens that controls how much light enters the camera. It's measured in f-stops like f/2.8 or f/8. Lower f-stop numbers mean wider openings, letting in more light and creating a shallow depth of field (blurry background). Higher f-stop numbers mean smaller openings, letting in less light and creating a larger depth of field (more of the scene in focus). Aperture also affects the quality of out-of-focus areas in the image (bokeh).

Understanding: Lens Types

Different lenses have different purposes to achieve different styles of images, some popular ones include:
Prime Lens: Fixed focal length, sharp images, great for portraits and dark settings.
Zoom Lens: Variable focal length, versatile for different shots and everyday use..
Wide-Angle Lens: Captures wide scenes like landscapes.
Telephoto Lens: Magnifies distant subjects, ideal for sports & wildlife.
Macro Lens: Perfect for close-up photography of small subjects.
Fisheye Lens: Ultra-wide perspective, creates unique images.

Understanding: Lens Mounts

Different camera brands use different lens mounts, which are like connectors that attach lenses to camera bodies. Each mount is specific to a particular brand and camera series. For example, Canon uses the EF and RF mounts, Nikon uses the F mount, Sony uses the E mount for its mirrorless cameras. These mounts dictate which lenses are compatible with which cameras. Some brands offer adapters to use lenses from other systems, but it's essential to ensure compatibility for proper functionality and autofocus performance.

Understanding: Manual and Autofocus

Manual focus and autofocus are two ways to adjust the sharpness of a camera lens. With manual focus, you turn a ring on the lens to bring the subject into focus yourself, giving you full control over what appears sharp in the image. Autofocus, on the other hand, relies on the camera's built-in technology to automatically adjust the focus for you, usually by detecting contrast or phase differences in the scene. Autofocus can be convenient, especially for fast-moving subjects or when you need to capture a quick shot, whereas manual focus allows for precise adjustments and creative control over the final image.
