Overview

Z f
Performance to Inspire

Full-frame image quality, depth and dynamic range

The versatility of a full-frame Nikon sensor. Autofocus built from Deep Learning technology. Astounding low-light performance and image stabilization.

Key Features:

  • More Light Capture
  • Smoother Bokeh
  • Richer Colour Tone
  • Wider Views

Powerful Performance

EXPEED 7
The Latest in Image Processing Technology

  • 10x faster than previous generations of EXPEED image processing
  • Enhanced by sophisticated Deep Learning technology
  • Same powerful processing engine used in Z 9 and Z 8

Makes Shooting Effortless

Up to 30 fps High-Speed Capture

Nail the decisive moment with 14 fps continuous shooting using the Z f’s mechanical shutter, which has been tested to 200,000 cycles, or activate C30+ for up to 30 fps using the silent electronic shutter.

Pre-Release Capture

Record the moments before you actually press the shutter release button—up to 30 fps—saving shots that would otherwise have been missed.

Auto Mode Enhanced by Deep Learning

The Z f’s Deep Learning technology analyzes your shooting situation and automatically adjusts aperture, ISO and shutter speed to match your intentions. You can automatically capture portraits with beautiful background blur or have all the faces in focus for a group shot.

Subject Recognition with 3D Tracking

Like the Z 9 and Z 8, the Z f’s autofocus system recognizes a wide range of common subjects—people, cats, dogs, birds, bicycles, motorbikes, cars, aircraft and trains—and uses Deep Learning technology to provide exactly the right focus and tracking for each.

Eye-Detection AF for Photos and Videos

The Z f automatically locks onto the eyes of people, pets and birds, even when they’re extremely small in the frame. For the first time, the feature is also available for manual focus lenses, automatically magnifying the area around the eyes so you can quickly confirm sharp focus.


Takes Low Light to a New High

Widest ISO Range Among Z Series Cameras

ISO 100-64,000 for stills with low noise across the entire range. ISO 100-51,200 for video.

AF Detection Down to -10 EV

The lowest of any Z series camera; detect faces and even eyes in extremely dark scenes.

Selective Noise Processing

Seeks out mid-tones where noise tends to increase—especially on flat surfaces—for sharp, clear low-light images with rich saturation.

HEIF Image Format for Richer Tonal Graduation

Richer tonal gradation than JPEG with increased luminance at a comparable file size. Great for stills and creating 4K HLG time-lapse videos in-camera.


Takes Image-Stabilization to a Whole New Steady

8.0 Stops of 5-Axis VR Image Stabilization

Slow your shutter speed an amazing 8.0 stops slower than would otherwise be possible without causing image blur.

World’s First Focus-Point Stabilization

The Z f applies stabilization5 to the area around the active focus point, wherever it is in the frame, providing precise correction right where you need it.

Built-In Creativity

Designed to Inspire

Dedicated Black & White Mode

When shooting stills, you can easily go from colour to black and white with the flick of a switch. Go beyond monochrome with new Flat and Deep Tone Monochrome Picture Controls for both videos and stills to capture light, shadows, composition and patterns in their purest form.

96 MP Ultra-High Resolution Stills

Activate Pixel Shift Shooting and create the highest resolution, lowest noise and lowest false colour (moiré) still images ever produced in a Nikon camera. (Requires NX Studio to combine a 32-image sequence into one 96MP image.)

Beautiful Portraits Made Easy

Apply Skin Softening, easily adjust the hue and brightness of skin tones, retain maximum detail with a new Rich Tone Portrait colour profile and more—all in-camera.

Picture Controls & Creative Picture Controls

Find exactly the right style and mood for your photos and videos with easy to use presets you can preview in real-time.

Flexible Video

Crisp Footage up to 4K/60p Captured In-Camera

4K/30P Oversampled from 6K

Capture ultra-sharp detail from the sensor’s 6K image data for footage that exceeds the resolution of normal 4K UHD.

4K/60P and 1080/120P Slow Motion

Add a high-end touch to your videos with smooth slow motion sequences. 4K/60p is available in DX-Crop Mode.

Internal 10-bit H.265 in SDR/N-Log/HLG

A wide range of options make it easy to render beautiful colours directly from the camera or through grading in post production.

Over 2 Hours of Continuous Recording

Record continuous clips up to 125 minutes long directly to the memory card, no external capture device required.

Versatile Video Control

New Shutter-Priority Exposure Mode

Record with a fixed shutter speed. The Z f will make smooth adjustments to ISO and aperture to maintain even brightness in your shot.

5-Axis Sensor-Shift Image Stabilization

Smooth handheld shots and camera movements. For extra stability during walking shots, Electronic VR works in conjunction with the Sensor-Shift VR.

Fine Exposure Adjustments

Adjust ISO in fine increments of 1/6 EV for smooth transitions from light to dark areas. Adjust shutter speed to as slow as 1/4 second.

Shooting Experience

Form and Function in Perfect Harmony

The Authentic Feel of Precision Mechanics

From the tactile knurling of the brass dials to the oh-so satisfying click of the mechanical shutter release button, every element of the Z f is carefully crafted to provide not just a beautiful appearance, but also a precision, tactile shooting experience.

New Touch Control While Shooting Through the EVF

While shooting through the viewfinder, you can simultaneously use the Z f’s touchscreen to move focus points, select a different subject to track, toggle between display modes and more—all without ever taking your eyes off the scene.

Front-Facing Screen for Content Creation

Bring the exceptional quality of full-frame footage to your content. Touch controls make it easy to start and stop recording.

Nikkor Z 40mm F/2.0 Lens

Easy to carry. Fun to shoot.

The NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 is an ultra-compact prime you can rely on with any Z camera in just about any situation. Its wide enough for street work, landscapes and interiors but tight enough for authentic portraits and candid shots. It has a fast f/2 maximum aperture that powers through low lighting, helps freeze fast action and separates your subject from the background with a beautiful bokeh effect. And it does all of this with clarity, consistency and brightness that's all Z.

Great on any Z camera.

Sitting between two prized focal lengths, 35mm and 50mm, the NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 takes strong points from each. It captures natural-looking portraits and close-ups like a 50mm, but it's also wide enough for shooting indoors, on the street or in a crowd like a 35mm. On a DX-format Z camera, it has a field of view of 60mm*, another all-purpose focal length for everything from portraits to street photography.

Nothing weighing you down

The NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 is so compact and lightweight—just 1.8 inches long and weighing 6 oz—you'll forget it's even there. It doesn't extend or retract, so it's always ready. Take it wherever you go as your main walk-around lens or as a lightweight second lens.

Dramatic depth

Make your subject stand out against a beautifully blurred background. The shallow depth of field of f/2 is enhanced by the lens' 9 rounded blade diaphragm, creating a natural bokeh effect.

Get in close

The NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 rewards you for getting in close to your subject. The lens' beautiful bokeh is accentuated at closer distances, giving your subject almost three-dimensional separation.

Shoot after hours

The larger Z mount draws even more light gathering performance from the wide f/2 aperture. Capture the mood of dimly lit situations with clarity and sharpness, and use faster shutter speeds to freeze action without sacrificing brightness.

Video savvy

The NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2's quiet autofocus system greatly suppresses focus breathing to prevent angle-of-view shifts during recording. Make smooth iris adjustments with the click-less control ring to create a natural shift in brightness.

Fast, confident focus

When it comes to autofocus, the NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 is the strong, silent type. A new high-torque stepping motor operates at blazing fast speeds in near silence, whether using Eye-Detection AF or continuous subject tracking.

Customizable control

The smooth click-less control ring can be customized for the way you shoot. Use it for precise manual focusing or to adjust aperture, ISO or exposure compensation.

Dust and drip resistant

The lens barrel and all moving parts are designed carefully considering dust- and drip-resistant performance with sealing that prevents dust and water droplets from entering the lens.

Technology

Aspherical Lens

A lens with a curved, non-spherical surface. Used to reduce aberrations and enable a more compact lens size. Aspherical lenses minimize coma and other types of lens aberrations, even when used at the widest aperture. They are particularly useful in correcting distortion in wide-angle lenses and help contribute to a lighter, more compact design by reducing the number of standard (spherical) elements necessary. Aspherical lens elements correct these distortions by continuously changing the refractive index from the center of the lens.

IF Lens

A NIKKOR lens in which only the internal lens group shifts during focusing. Thus, IF NIKKORS do not change in size during AF operation, allowing for compact, lightweight lenses capable of closer focusing distances. These lenses will be designated with the abbreviation IF on the lens barrel.

Electromagnetic Diaphragm Mechanism

An electromagnetic diaphragm mechanism in the lens barrel provides highly accurate electronic diaphragm or aperture blade control when using auto exposure during continuous shooting.

Stepping Motor

NIKKOR Z lenses use a stepping motor for fast, accurate, smooth, quiet autofocus with reduced wobbling. This quiet drive system makes the lenses ideal for use when shooting video.
