Summary

The NIKKOR Z 28-75mm f/2.8 is positioned as a high-performance, high-luminosity alternative within the Z-mount ecosystem, prioritizing an exceptional balance between constant aperture and portability. Weighing just 565g, this standard zoom sacrifices the initial 4mm of the classic 24-70mm to gain ergonomics and lightness, without giving up an aperture of f/2.8 throughout the focal range. Its optical design, which includes one Super ED element and three aspherical elements, is optimized to deliver critical resolution and high contrast, while keeping chromatic aberrations under rigorous control even at maximum apertures. In the operational section, its impressive minimum focusing distance of only 19cm at the angular end stands out, allowing close-up compositions with a dynamic perspective and soft bokeh thanks to its 9 rounded blade diaphragm. The focusing system uses a high-speed stepping motor (STM), guaranteeing a silent and precise focus transition, ideal for professional video due to its low focus breathing. In addition, it has an integral seal against dust and humidity and a fluorine coating on the front element, establishing itself as a robust and versatile tool for event, travel and reportage photographers who seek agility without compromising image quality.
