Features

Compatible with Nikon Z cameras
Works with any Nikon Z camera
Standard lens for general purpose use
Approximates an angle of view similar to a 35mm film camera
50mm focal length
A versatile focal length for capturing crystal-clear shots throughout a variety of shooting situations
f/1.2 maximum aperture
Wide-open aperture performs exceptionally well in low-light settings. Provides remarkable depth-of-field control, so you can softly blur the background and draw attention to your subject.
Autofocus. Redefined.
Rather than moving one large group of lens elements, the NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.2 S's multi-focus system moves two smaller groups half the distance and two smaller energy efficient STM stepping motors to provide faster, quieter, more precise AF operation
1.48' minimum focus distance
Accommodates 82mm filter size
Accessories included
Comes with a hood, front and rear lens caps and case
Weather Sealed
The NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.2 S is extensively sealed to keep out dust and moisture, especially around the moving parts of the lens barrel. A little water won't hurt a Z camera or lens, so go out and make the most of that rainy day.
Lens info panel
Quickly confirm focus distance, depth of field and aperture when you're shooting from a tripod or gimbal and can't be behind the camera.
Control ring
Smooth, precise and clickless. Manually adjust aperture, ISO and exposure compensation
Shortcut button
Activate subject tracking, image playback, AF Lock and more from the L-Fn button. Customize your gear for the way you shoot.

Low Light Boss!
The Nikkor Z 50mm f1.2 delivers stunning portraits and product shots with amazing Boka! What I love the most is how much better the eye tracking is with my Nikon Z7ii. Knowing the focus is absolutely on point allows me to focus more on composition and lighting. If you wear glasses like I do, you will love the focus. If you ever thought of shooting astrophotography, this is the lens to put you in the position to get the best shot! I use the 50mm 1.2 with my Z6ii for night and low light photography. There are other Nikkor Z options that are more cost-effective but if you appreciate the increased capability, don't let the cost be a factor.

My go to lens.
Amazing all purpose primary lens with amazing low light capacity. Open the aperture and the bokeh is perfect. Colors and sharpens are right on. Worth every penny. There are cheaper less capable lenses but you get what you pay for.

Not for everyone, but great for some
The only reason to buy this lens instead of the f1.8 is if you're going to shoot wide-open most of the time. The f1.8 is a great lens too, but for me there are enough reasons for me to want that extra stop. This is a hefty chunk of glass, but it's not cumbersome. If I'm traveling and want versatility, I can walk around with my Z7ii and 24-70 f2.8 during the day, and then switch to this lens at night. Both configurations fit in the same carefully chosen holster bag and the filter size is the same on both lenses too. This f1.2 really gulps down light and is just beautiful. Eye detection autofocus is working great for me in very low light. If you want some shallow depth of field for medium focal length portraiture, you can still run it full wide during the day by throwing on an ND or polarizer to cut some light and ramp the ISO all the way down. Still, if you want something lighter or aren't shooting wide-open most of the time, there's nothing wrong with going with the f1.8 instead.

Excellent lens
Excellent lens for portrait pictures (already tested) and a potential excellent use for astrophotography, as well, but not tested, yet. Weight may be an issue if the plan is to carry it for long periods

sharpest lens on the market.
One of the sharpest lenses on the market. It is worth every penny. I wish it was a bit smaller, but will accept the size for the quality we get out of this lens.
