Nikon NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.8 S Lens + BONUS Cashback

Overview

The Nikon NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.8 S is a compact prime lens for full-frame Nikon Z-mount mirrorless cameras, combining a natural, normal-length 50mm field of view with a bright f/1.8 maximum aperture. It's a versatile everyday lens well suited to portraits, street photography, and general shooting, with enough speed for low light and enough control over depth of field to separate a subject from its background. Two aspherical elements and two extra-low dispersion elements work together to reduce spherical and chromatic aberrations, while Nano Crystal and Super Integrated Coatings suppress flare and ghosting for cleaner contrast and colour.

A stepping motor autofocus system delivers quiet, precise focusing for stills and video alike, with full-time manual override available whenever finer control is needed. A programmable control ring puts focus, aperture, or exposure compensation within easy reach, and an electromagnetic aperture mechanism keeps exposure steady through fast burst shooting. A rounded nine-blade diaphragm renders smooth background blur, and weather-sealed construction protects the lens barrel in changeable outdoor conditions.

Bright f/1.8 Maximum Aperture

The wide f/1.8 aperture performs well in low light and lets you control depth of field for portraits and everyday shooting alike.

Stepping Motor Autofocus with Manual Override

A quiet stepping motor provides fast, accurate autofocus for stills and video, with an internal focusing design that keeps the lens length constant. Full-time manual override allows fine focus adjustments at any time.

Programmable Control Ring

A customisable control ring near the lens mount can be set for manual focus, aperture, or exposure compensation, giving quick access to key settings without adjusting camera dials.

Weather-Sealed for Reliable Field Use

Dust- and moisture-resistant construction throughout the barrel supports confident use in changeable outdoor conditions.
