Nikon NIKKOR Z 17-28mm f/2.8 Lens
The NIKKOR Z 17-28mm f/2.8 is a lightweight, ultra-wide-angle zoom designed for creators who need a blend of speed, portability, and an expansive field of view. Whether you are capturing vast landscapes, soaring architecture, or high-energy vlogging content, this lens provides a constant f/2.8 aperture in a remarkably sleek form factor. It is the perfect choice for photographers and videographers who want pro-level low-light performance without the bulk of traditional wide-angle glass.

Ultra-Wide Versatility & Speed
Constant f/2.8 Maximum Aperture: Maintain consistent exposure settings across the entire zoom range. This bright design excels in low-light environments and is an exceptional choice for astrophotography, where every bit of light-gathering power is essential.

Creative Depth of Field: The fast aperture, combined with a rounded nine-blade diaphragm, delivers a smooth, pleasing bokeh. This allows for beautiful subject isolation even at wider focal lengths.

Close-Focusing Performance: With a minimum focusing distance of just 7.5″, you can capture dynamic close-up perspectives, making it ideal for unique product shots and creative foreground interest in landscapes.

Optimized for Video & Gimbals
Internal Zooming & Focusing: Unlike many zooms, this lens does not extend or retract when changing focal lengths. This fixed physical length makes it incredibly easy to balance on a gimbal or drone, as the center of gravity remains constant.

Suppressed Focus Breathing: Specifically engineered for filmmakers, the lens maintains a consistent field of view when racking focus, ensuring your shots remain professional and free of distracting “zooming” artifacts.

Click-less Control Ring: The programmable ring is designed for silent operation, allowing you to adjust manual focus, aperture, or exposure compensation smoothly during a take.

Lightweight Professional Build
30% Lighter than the 14-24mm f/2.8 S: This lens offers a significantly smaller diameter and more portable footprint while retaining the same f/2.8 speed. It uses widely available 67mm filters, further simplifying your travel kit.

Advanced Optical Formula: Features two ED elements, one Super ED element, and three aspherical elements. This sophisticated glass arrangement effectively eliminates chromatic aberrations and distortion, ensuring razor-sharp imagery across the frame.

All-Weather Reliability: The lens barrel is fully dust- and moisture-resistant for use in challenging environments. An antifouling coating on the front element repels fingerprints and dirt, making it effortless to clean in the field.
