Nikon NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/2.8 VR

Discover limitless possibilities with the Nikon NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/2.8 VR. It is a versatile zoom lens that excels in low light thanks to its constant aperture of f/2.8. This allows you to capture razor-sharp images full of detail, even in twilight.

The flexible zoom range of 16–50 mm (equivalent to 24–75 mm on full-frame) makes this lens perfect for portraits, street photography, landscapes and travel images. The minimum focus distance of just 0.15 m at 16 mm and 0.25 m at 50 mm offers creative freedom for beautiful close-ups.

The built-in VR image stabilisation up to 5 stops ensures stable handheld shots, while the quiet and accurate autofocus is ideal for video. Thanks to the silent adjustment ring, you can smoothly adjust settings and make smooth focus pulls without distracting noise.

Despite its brightness, the lens is remarkably compact and weighs only about 330 grams. The robust design is also dust-resistant and splash-proof, so you can easily take it with you on any adventure.
