• Superb operability for daily use: Travel across the country to capture a wide variety of shots with ease; the NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S is the world’s first2 filter-attachable FX-format (full-size) compatible ultra-wide-angle 14mm lens, made possible with effective distortion compensation within the camera. Despite having ultra-wide angle capabilities, the front lens element is nearly flat, so that it can be protected by attaching an 82-mm-diameter lens hood or filter, allowing users to shoot as if using a standard lens, and allowing for protection against sandy terrains.
Practicality of the lens does not stop there; the ultra-wide angle lens is packed into a compact size through a retractable system that ensures outstanding portability, while maintaining its high-standard optical performance. A simple operation of the zoom ring with a “button-less” structure design unlocks the lens, enabling quicker shooting while on the move than with conventional models. Getting down and dirty for the best shots is also worry-free with the dust- and drip-resistant features and superb antifouling performance, which protects the lens from dirt and allows for easy cleaning.
Shooting with comfort and peace of mind is further made possible with the flexibility of usage and superior operability, enhanced with the control ring. Assignable camera settings from Focus (M/A)3, Aperture and Exposure Compensation allow for smooth operation with the appropriate amount of torque. With these customisations available, users can shoot captivating movies without any distracting noises caused by changing settings using conventional command dials and buttons.
• Capture quiet moments undisturbed: The peace and serenity that early morning scenery brings can now be captured in smooth video footage with reduced focus breathing. The NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S lessens shifts in angles of view when adjusting focus, allowing users to record videos smoothly.
A quieter lens drive with outstandingly accurate and fast auto-focus (AF) control is also employed through a quiet and highly responsive stepping motor and diaphragm mechanism, ensuring enhanced usability and stable aperture control (AE) for both stills and movie shooting.
