Nikon Nikkor Z 17-28mm f/2.8

Be striking

Landscapes to cityscapes. Expansive skies to street scenes. Architecture to interiors. You can smoothly zoom from a dramatic 17 mm to an immersive 24 mm or a classic 28 mm—and frame your shots with ease.

Get close for a dramatic perspective

Go wide for a group shot—or move in closer to fill the frame with intriguing details of anything that catches your eye! This zoom lens boasts a minimum focus distance of just 0.19 m for sharp, clear results at close quarters.

Roll camera!

Captivate with your establishing shots. Create a sense of space when shooting interviews in tight spaces. Suppressed focus breathing lets you smoothly shift focus while maintaining framing, and quiet AF mean you won’t make a sound.

Fire up your imagination

With the NIKKOR Z 17-28mm f/2.8, you’re free to shoot wide open and accentuate your subject against a softly defocused background. Or stop down the aperture and capture detailed wide-angle scenes that are sharp front to back. You get superb sharpness and less distortion—even when shooting the most dramatic ultra-wide perspectives.

Natural light

The fast f/2.8 constant aperture is great for shooting in available light—or working creatively with shutter speeds and depth of field. It also lets you capture images with dramatic selective focus at every focal length.

Incredible bokeh

You get big beautiful bokeh when shooting wide open. The lens renders out-of-focus light as large, soft spheres—letting you create dreamlike backgrounds. Shooting up close? Bokeh is accentuated wonderfully.

Shoot wide with confidence

From staged shots to unexpected opportunities, the NIKKOR Z 17-28mm f/2.8 will help you nail striking images in any situation. The wide zoom ring is simple to operate when you have your eye on the viewfinder—and you can customise the control ring for the way you shoot.
