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 to the viewfinder—and you can customise the control ring for the way you shoot.
