Nikon’s Two New Nikkor Z Telephoto Lenses

NIKKOR Z 70-180mm f/2.8

NIKKOR Z 70-180mm f/2.8Nikon has announced the release of the NIKKOR Z 70-180mm f/2.8, a telephoto zoom lens that is compatible with Nikon Z-mount full-frame mirrorless cameras.

The NIKKOR Z 70-180mm f/2.8 is a telephoto zoom lens that covers a full range of focal lengths with a constant fast maximum aperture of f/2.8. Compact and lightweight with a total length of approximately 151 millimeters and a weight of approximately 795 grams, this lens is both fast, strong, and portable, for being a telephoto lens.

The fast f/2.8 maximum aperture, combined with the large bokeh and compression effect that are characteristic of a telephoto lens, supports impressive portrait photography. The NIKKOR Z 70-180mm f/2.8’s aperture allows for the sharp capture of moving objects even in low light conditions, such as indoor sports.

This lens contains what is called a stepping motor, allowing for fast autofocusing. In addition, the autofocus can also be used when shooting close-up. With a minimum focus distance of just 0.27 m at the maximum wide-angle position and a maximum reproduction ratio of 0.48x, the NIKKOR Z 70-180mm f/2.8 can be used to shoot close-ups various objects with strong stability.
