Engineered to be exceptional, the NIKKOR Z 28-135mm f/4 PZ lens is a video workhorse. With optics designed to resolve 8k footage straight from the camera, it opens options for solo video shooters and small crews.

Dedicated Z mount video lens

With its impressive rendering power, the NIKKOR Z 28-135mm f/4 PZ lens can resolve high-definition 8K video footage that allows plenty of flexibility to crop in post and output in 4K. The versatile focal-length range handles wide or close-up shots with ease, while the smooth power zoom lets you quickly frame shots on the go. A minimum focus distance of 0.34 m from 28mm to 50mm, and 0.57 m at 135mm, extends your creative options nicely.

Video-specific optical design

The complex optical construction features 18 elements in 13 groups and minimises distortion at any shooting distance. For the best possible anti-reflection performance, Meso Amorphous Coat significantly reduces unwanted ghosting and flare caused by bright light sources. Footage is remarkably clear, even if shooting under strong sunlight or studio lighting.
