The first NIKON Z series macro lenses

Discover the beauty you see with the first Z series macro lenses

Nikon introduces the first two macro lenses to join the Nikon Z family. The impressively lightweight NIKKOR Z MC 105mm f/2.8 VR S is a professional S-line macro lens capable of creating stunningly realistic depth and detail. The NIKKOR Z MC 50mm f/2.8 is a compact, lightweight, and versatile lens that is perfect for aspiring macro photographers who want to capture vivid close-ups.

With its 1:1 reproduction ratio, flawless focusing, and superb image rendering capabilities, the professional NIKKOR Z MC 105mm f/2.8 VR S is a master of life-size shots. Optimized for macro photography and video, its medium telephoto angle of view also makes it an impressive lens for detailed portraits: sharpness and contrast are incredible, as is the bokeh. Control is precise and flexible, and photographers can reverse the lens's focus direction, which is an advantage when working in a mixed production environment.

The new NIKKOR Z MC 50mm f/2.8 is a great walkaround lens, capable of revealing the beauty of even the most ordinary subjects. From shooting delicious food to capturing overhead shots of flowers and cobblestone streets, photographers can easily create super-sharp, life-size (1:1) macro images and impressive close-ups of small subjects and details. Focusing is fast and clear even when the front of this macro lens is only 5.6 cm from the subject! Users can also take advantage of the classic 50mm focal length and natural perspective to shoot everything from portraits to street scenes.

Dirk Jasper, Product Manager, Nikon Europe, says: "The long-awaited 105mm macro lens adds astonishingly beautiful macro capabilities to the Z system and is an ideal choice for both professionals and macro photography enthusiasts. Its smaller and more affordable brother also has a lot to offer: the new 50mm macro lens is perfect if you want to start shooting true macro images. And if you're just looking for a versatile 50mm lens that will also allow you to capture amazing close-ups, then this is it."

Donna Crous, food photographer and Nikon Europe ambassador says: "I was fortunate enough to start working with the new 105mm NIKKOR Z macro lens while shooting the Create Your Light campaign with Nikon. I was absolutely amazed by its capabilities, especially in low light. Definitely an important lens for any food photographer who values shallow depth of field, focusing speed, and beautiful bokeh – because we all love those beautiful bokeh points!"
