Creativity your way
Get ready to elevate your portraiture photography with the NIKKOR Z DX 24mm f/1.7. Easily create stunning portraits with dreamy bokeh to highlight your subjects with the lens' maximum aperture of f/1.7 and short minimum focus distance of 0.18m.

Capturing beautiful photos during the elusive golden hour is made simple with the NIKKOR Z DX 24mm f/1.7. The lens' maximum aperture is bright enough to capture even with lower ISO sensitivity and in low-light situations. In addition, users can shoot handheld with minimal image blur caused by camera shake or subject movement. The result is beautiful stills and video with high resolution, while effectively reducing noise for smoother images, thus providing users with more diverse shooting opportunities.
Picturing perspectives
Capture shots with variety in mind; whether it's food photography, striking portraits, or dynamic landscapes, as the NIKKOR Z DX 24mm f/1.7 features a versatile focal length of 24mm[1] to cover a variety of scenes. With a short minimum focus distance of 0.18m, users can get up close to easily photograph everyday subjects like food and flowers, without being too far away to focus on the subject. The combination of the minimum focus distance of 0.18 m and the maximum aperture of f/1.7 enables effective shooting of flowers and other still subjects with large background bokeh, enabling the subject to stand out.
Ready, steady, shoot
Shoot videos without worrying about disruption from unnecessary operational sounds, thanks to the smooth and quiet operation of the lens' STM and 'click-less' control ring. With the NIKKOR Z DX 24mm f/1.7, you can shoot with confidence when befriending a street cat or capturing spontaneous street moments.
Users can also record videos with a natural shift in focus position and brightness level with effective focus-breathing[2] compensation from the lens. Even when the focus point shifts from one subject to another, the angle of view is maintained, creating smooth and natural videos with stable exposure.
Light in weight, big on usability
Compact in size yet packed with features, the NIKKOR Z DX 24mm f/1.7 weighs approximately 135g and makes for the perfect daily companion for users to keep in their bags and bring around for photo walks or their travels. Even when the lens is attached to a camera, such as the Z 30, the set-up would weigh only 540g. Rounding up the features of the lens is the compact design that narrows slightly toward the tip to accentuate its compact size.
