Slimmest & Lightest NIKKOR Z Prime Ultra-Compact Pancake Form Factor, Constant f/2.8 Aperture & Weather-Sealed Design
The NIKKOR Z 26mm f/2.8 is an ultra-compact, featherlight wide-angle pancake prime lens engineered natively for Nikon Z-mount mirrorless camera systems. Standing as the slimmest and lightest lens in the entire NIKKOR Z lineup, it measures less than one inch thick and weighs just a fraction of a pound, making it an ideal choice for street photography, travel, and everyday walkaround use. By transforming your Z-series body into its most portable iteration without sacrificing optical performance, this lens ensures you never miss a candid moment on the go.
Designed to produce crisp, high-resolution imagery from edge to edge, the optical construction includes three aspherical elements that effectively suppress wide-angle distortion and optical aberrations. Its fast f/2.8 maximum aperture permits confident handheld shooting in dim lighting and delivers smooth, natural background bokeh via a 7-blade rounded diaphragm. Featuring a precise STM stepping motor, an all-element focusing system, a programmable control ring, and weather-sealed construction, the NIKKOR Z 26mm f/2.8 pairs extreme mobility with professional versatility.
