Nikon Z DX 16-50mm f3.5-6.3 DX VR

NIKON Z 16-50mm APS C Lens

Compact and versatile, the NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR NIKON is a 24-75mm equivalent zoom designed for DX-format Z-mount mirrorless cameras. Covering a zoom range from wide angle to portrait length, this lens is well suited for everyday shooting situations. Its optical design incorporates aspherical and extra-low dispersion elements, which help reduce a variety of aberrations for sharper and clearer image quality throughout the zoom range. A super-integrated coating has also been applied to minimize ghosting and flare to increase contrast and color accuracy in bright, backlit conditions.

The lens's flexible focal length range is complemented by vibration reduction image stabilization, which minimizes the appearance of camera shake at up to 4.5 stops for sharper manual shooting. A stepper motor provides fast, quiet and accurate autofocus performance along with full-time manual focus override to suit both still images and video applications. In addition, a programmable control ring can be configured for intuitive adjustment in a variety of camera and exposure settings.

• The standard zoom is designed for DX-format Z-mount NIKON mirrorless cameras and provides an equivalent focal length range of 24-75mm.
• Extra-low dispersion elements reduce color stripes and chromatic aberrations to improve color clarity and accuracy.
• Four aspherical elements minimize spherical aberrations and distortion throughout the zoom range for greater sharpness and accurate rendering.
• The super-integrated coating suppresses glare and ghosting to improve contrast and color fidelity when working in bright lighting conditions.
• The stepper motor delivers impressively smooth, quiet and fast autofocus performance that adapts well to both still images and video applications. Full-time manual focus override is also possible and an internal focus design is used, where only internal lens clusters are moved during focusing, to maintain the overall length of the lens during use and promote faster focusing speeds.
• Vibration reduction image stabilization minimizes camera shake by up to 4.5 stops for sharper manual shooting.
• The programmable control ring is set by default to adjust manual focus, but can also be used to control aperture or exposure compensation.
• The specialized electromagnetic aperture mechanism provides greater exposure control stability which is especially beneficial when working with fast continuous firing speeds.
• The rounded seven-blade diaphragm promotes a pleasant unfocused quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field techniques.
