Its fast f/2.8 aperture across the 28-75mm zoom range provides excellent low-light performance and background blur for a full-frame Nikon Z camera. The updated optical design and VXD linear motor deliver sharp images and quick, quiet autofocus, with a very close 7.1-inch minimum focusing distance for detailed shots. This lens is best for Nikon Z photographers needing a versatile, high-performance standard zoom for portraits, events, and creative close-up work.
