Small but expressive
The NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 (SE) packs superb performance into a heritage lens design. From street scenes to candid portraits—capture just about anything with its distinctive 40 mm focal length (60 mm on DX-format cameras). Beautiful bokeh guaranteed.
Small, fast prime lens—big beautiful bokeh
Sharp, fast, and compact enough to wield discreetly, the iconic-looking NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 (SE) is a brilliant everyday lens. From spontaneous snapshots to carefully composed photographs, you get richly detailed shots even in low light. Bokeh looks beautifully natural: putting your subject in sharp focus against softly blurred backgrounds has never been easier.
Heritage design
With classic design details faithfully recreated from original blueprints of Ai Nikkor lenses, our special-edition 40 mm f/2 lens brings a touch of iconic, retro style to any Nikon Z camera. From the knurling around the control ring to the fonts used for the lens name—this full-frame prime is sharp. In more than one way.
Sharp up close
The NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 (SE) rewards you with crisp, clear images when you get in close. The minimum focus distance lets you focus sharply even with the camera just 29 cm away from your subject. Plus, the lens' beautiful bokeh is accentuated at closer distances for artful-looking background blur.
