NEXT-GENERATION NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S II
Built to take storytellers out in the field further than ever before, the NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S II lens is both
As part of the S-Line of NIKKOR Z lenses, the NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S II is a standard zoom lens with a constant maximum aperture of f/2.8, covering the versatile focal length range from wide-angle 24 mm to medium-telephoto 70 mm for full-frame/FX-format cameras. It is the first in its class*2 for which an internal zoom mechanism has been adopted, and it is the lightest in its class, weighing approx. 675 g.
The internal zoom mechanism increases zooming stability and dust- and drip-resistant performance. The NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S II offers superior reliability and agility for safe and worry-free outdoor shooting. It is the first zoom lens for which the Silky Swift VCM has been adopted for the AF drive, achieving the fastest autofocusing in Nikon history with extremely precise and quiet AF control. Autofocusing is approximately 5x faster than that of the NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S, and AF tracking performance with zooming has been increased by approximately 60%, making it easier to capture decisive moments with rapidly moving subjects such as athletes in action.
In addition, the adoption of a large-diameter double-sided aspherical lens for the front lens element and effective arrangement of ED glass and aspherical lens elements have achieved both a lightweight design and the highest level of image quality in the S-Line lens series. As a new-generation f/2.8 standard zoom lens that combines outstanding image quality and superior agility, the NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S II is the lens for those looking for the better performance in both still-image and video recording, even when shooting in a variety of conditions or harsh environments.
Nikon will continue to pursue a new dimension in optical performance while meeting users' needs, contributing to the development of imaging culture, with the hope of expanding possibilities for imaging expression.
Primary Features
The multi-focusing system, for which the Silky Swift VCM (SSVCM) has been adopted for the first time in a zoom lens, achieves the fastest autofocusing in Nikon history, with extremely precise and quiet AF for both still-image and video recording.
A compact design with the lightest weight (approx. 675 g) in its class, and 77-mm filter-attachment size makes it easy to carry and less burdensome when shooting handheld.
The lens supports a minimum focus distance of 0.24 m at the wide-angle end and 0.33 m at the telephoto end. Maximum reproduction ratio is 0.21x at the wide-angle end and 0.32x at the telephoto end, allowing users to get closer to their subjects for dynamic expression.
Adoption of Meso Amorphous Coat, which offers the best anti-reflection performance in Nikon history, and ARNEO Coat effectively suppresses ghosting and flares, resulting in clear images.
A newly developed 11-blade diaphragm enables very round bokeh expression.
Optimized for video recording with a design that suppresses focus breathing.Equipped with a control ring clicking switch that allows the user to enable and disable the tactile "click" of control ring operation.
Equipped with a filter adjustment window that allows users to adjust circular polarizing and variable ND filters without removing the lens hood.
