Nikon Z 26mm F2.8 Nikkor Pancake Lens

So small, so versatile! This bright full-frame wide-angle prime might be tiny but it’s ready for big ideas. Turn every opportunity into a creative opportunity, and capture standout shots from your own unique perspective with the Nikon NIKKOR Z 26mm f/2.8 pancake lens.

Small but mighty pancake prime
Where will you be when you get your next great shot? From the streets you know to the places you’ve never been before, there’s always something new to be seen—and this Z mount pancake lens is a great compact prime for sharp, on-the-spot shooting. Whether you want a fast wide-angle lens for street scenes. Or a lightweight everyday lens that’s wide enough for landscapes, interiors, and more.

Standout street photography without standing out
The NIKKOR Z 26mm f/2.8 is so unobtrusive, it gives discretion a new name. Weighing 125 g (approx.) and just 23.5 mm (approx.) long, you’ll barely notice you’re carrying this diminutive prime lens. If you’re into street photography or situational portraits, your subjects won’t be intimidated by the size of your lens. If they even notice it at all.

Versatile 26 mm focal length
The wide 26 mm focal length lets you create stills and videos that show more of a scene. Or you can shoot in tight spaces to reveal epic new perspectives. If it’s the smaller details that catch your eye, take advantage of this lens’ minimum focus distance to move closer and focus sharply with the camera just 20 cm away from your subject.

Wide shots that pop!
Thanks to the impressive light-gathering capability of the large Z mount, and a maximum aperture of f/2.8, you’re free to capture the mood of dimly lit situations with clarity and sharpness. And you can use faster shutter speeds to freeze action without sacrificing brightness. If you’re shooting at closer distances, you can accentuate bokeh for artful-looking background blur.

Put a hood on it
Even the included lens hood doesn't add any real bulk to this 26mm pancake lens. You can keep the hood attached to protect the front element, and the lens will still slip easily into your bag. Plus you can up your creative options when shooting simply by attaching 52mm filters to the hood.

The ultra wide Nikon Z mount enables your Nikkor Z lens to capture more light across the entire frame. Combined with the short distance between mount and sensor, light fall off at the edges of the frame is significantly reduced. The result is incredible detail, all the way to the edge of the frame.
