Nikon Z 70-180mm f/2.8 Lens + '20 Techniques for Success in Photography' Ebook - Nikon Z Lens

The versatile Nikon Z 70-180mm f/2.8 zoom lens is designed for Nikon's hybrid Z cameras. With a focal range of 70-180 mm and a constant maximum aperture of f/2.8, it’s an ideal tool for various photography disciplines, including portraits, sports, wildlife, and landscapes. Its bright f/2.8 aperture allows for sharp images even in low light conditions while delivering a beautiful bokeh effect to isolate the subject from the background. This is particularly appreciated by portrait and nature photographers who seek shallow depth of field to highlight their subjects. Featuring 19 elements arranged in 14 groups, including ED, Super ED, and aspherical lenses, this design effectively reduces chromatic aberrations and distortions, ensuring exceptional image quality across the zoom range. Additionally, Nano Crystal Coat and ARNEO coatings minimize reflections and ghosting for clear, contrast-rich images. The autofocus system boasts a silent and fast step motor (STM), providing precise focusing for both photography and videography. The minimum focus distance is 0.27m at 70mm and 0.85m at 180mm, allowing for detailed close-ups with a maximum reproduction ratio of 0.48x. Compatible with Nikon Z teleconverters TC-1.4x and TC-2.0x, it extends the focal length to 252 mm or 360 mm respectively while maintaining high image quality. This flexibility is particularly useful for wildlife and sports photographers who want to get closer to the action without switching lenses. Weighing approximately 795g and measuring 151mm long, the Nikon Z 70-180mm f/2.8 is relatively lightweight and compact for a zoom lens, making it easy to transport and use in the field. Its robust construction and dust and moisture seals ensure reliable performance in various weather conditions.
