The Nikon NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 (SE) is a versatile, everyday prime straddling wide-angle and standard field of view featuring a bright f/2 maximum aperture. The distinct focal length is wide enough for spontaneous shooting but still tight enough for portraiture and selective focus shooting. The lens's compact, portable form factor makes it perfect for walkaround shooting and equally well-suited for use on FX or DX-format camera bodies. This Special Edition version of the Z 40mm f/2 lens features a retro-inspired design with checked knurling on the lens body, a contrasting silver band, and a vintage NIKKOR logo and typeface that mimics the look of lenses used on classic Nikon FM film cameras. Bright f/2 maximum aperture excels in difficult lighting conditions and also offers increased control over depth of field for isolating subjects using depth of field. Super Integrated Coating suppresses flare and ghosting for improved contrast and color fidelity when working in strong lighting conditions. Programmable Control Ring is, by default, set to adjust manual focus but can also be used to control aperture or exposure compensation. The rounded nine-blade diaphragm promotes a pleasing out-of-focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques.
