Nikon Z 17-28mm F2.8 FX Lens

From epic views to frame-filling close-ups, the NIKKOR Z 17-28mm f/2.8 is the perfect lens with which to tell diverse visual stories from a unique point of view. Landscapes to cityscapes. Expansive skies to street scenes.
Architecture to interiors. The 17-28mm focal length range lets photographers nail detailed, all-encompassing wide-angle shots—or play with a sense of scale and exaggerate perspectives. Video shooters can draw viewers into a scene with wide establishing shots, or create a sense of space when shooting in tight quarters. Designed to enable confident and creative wide-angle photography, the NIKKOR Z 17-28mm f/2.8 is both versatile and easy to use. The f/2.8 constant aperture is great for shooting in available light or working creatively with shutter speeds—and the lens renders big, beautiful bokeh when shooting wide open.
Be striking
Landscapes to cityscapes. Expansive skies to street scenes. Architecture to interiors. You can smoothly zoom from a dramatic 17 mm to an immersive 24 mm or a classic 28 mm—and frame your shots with ease.
Get close for a dramatic perspective
Go wide for a group shot—or move in closer to fill the frame with intriguing details of anything that catches your eye! This zoom lens boasts a minimum focus distance of just 0.19 m for sharp, clear results at close quarters.
Roll camera!
Captivate with your establishing shots. Create a sense of space when shooting interviews in tight spaces. Suppressed focus breathing lets you smoothly shift focus while maintaining framing, and quiet AF means you won’t make a sound.
Fire up your imagination
With the NIKKOR Z 17-28mm f/2.8, you’re free to shoot wide open and accentuate your subject against a softly defocused background. Or stop down the aperture and capture detailed wide-angle scenes that are sharp front to back. You get superb sharpness and less distortion—even when shooting the most dramatic ultra-wide perspectives.
Natural light
The fast f/2.8 constant aperture is great for shooting in available light—or working creatively with shutter speeds and depth of field. It also lets you capture images with dramatic selective focus at every focal length.
Incredible bokeh
You get big beautiful bokeh when shooting wide open. The lens renders out-of-focus light as large, soft spheres—letting you create dreamlike backgrounds. Shooting up close? Bokeh is accentuated wonderfully.
Shoot wide with confidence
From staged shots to unexpected opportunities, the NIKKOR Z 17-28mm f/2.8 will help you nail striking images in any situation. The wide zoom ring is simple to operate when you have your eye to the viewfinder—and you can customise the control ring for the way you shoot.
Fast AF
Focusing is smooth, quiet, and precise. Nikon’s responsive AF lets you lock on quickly—whether your subject is positioned in the foreground or the background.
Light build
This ultra-wide-angle zoom lens is built to go places. It’s so light that you can keep it on your camera as you wander and be ready for every fleeting moment.
Fully sealed
The lens is sealed to prevent dust and water droplets from getting between you and a great image. An antifouling coating resists dirt, fingerprints, and smudges.¹
