Nikon NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 SE Mirrorless Camera Lens

The Nikon NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 (SE) is a compact, versatile wide-normal prime lens for Nikon Z-mount mirrorless cameras, available in a stunning Special Edition retro design inspired by classic Nikon FM film cameras. With a bright f/2 maximum aperture, silent stepping motor autofocus, and a programmable control ring, this lightweight everyday prime is equally at home shooting street photography, portraits, travel, and video — on both FX and DX-format bodies.
