Compact and lightweight lens for wider shooting
applications
While maintaining the minimum required size to deliver an extremely high
standard of optical performance, this lens provides outstanding portability,
making it an ideal partner for the compact Z series cameras. The easy-to-
carry, approx. 485 g lightweight body employs a lens mechanism that can
extend/retract the lens via zoom ring rotation without pressing a button,
ensuring remarkable agility for faster shooting compared to conventional
retractable-type lenses.

Superior optical performance achieves exceptional
rendering across the entire frame
The NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S adopts four ED glass and four aspherical lens
elements. It delivers the superior optical performance that only the S-Line
lenses can oer, including superb resolution that brings out the full potential
of high-pixel-count digital cameras, such as the Z 7 with 45.7 eective
megapixels.
Thanks to its outstanding resolving power, peripheral subjects can be
rendered sharply. Superb point-image reproduction is achieved when
capturing point light sources in night landscapes or starry night skies utilizing
ultra-wide angles of view. Nano Crystal Coat eectively reduces ghost and
flare, ensuring clear images even when shooting at ultra-wide angles of view,
in compositions where the sun tends to be included in the shot.
