    Great Everyday Lens!

    I’m really happy with this lens! The image quality is excellent, with sharp results and fast, accurate autofocus. It pairs perfectly with my Nikon Z5IIC and keeps the whole setup nice and compact. One of the things I really like about the 40mm focal length is that it falls right between 35mm and 50mm. For me, it pretty much eliminates the need to carry both lenses. The compact size also makes it easy to fit my camera and lens into my 3L WANDRD Rogue sling bag. No complaints so far! It’s a great everyday lens that I’m really enjoying.

    Must have lightweight Z mount travel prime

    Must have for any Z body owner. This is the best travel lens you will ever buy for the Nikon Z system. It's not the sharpest up close at F2 for something like a tight head shot, but it has beautiful character in those scenarios and very vintage rendering. I used to use a 50 1.8G that wasn't sharp unless I stopped it down to 2.8. This 40 is sharper at F2 than my old 50 at 2.8 ever was. Wonderful for most uses especially low light.

    Small but mighty

    I purchased the Nikon 40mm f/4 to try out the Nikon ZF, and the lens impressed me more than the camera body. I have no complain about sharpness, or the corners. If it was weather sealed, I’d be an easy recommendation for professional work. I shoot mostly in low light scenarios and at f/2, it was amazing. I’d recommend this to anyone looking for an inexpensive, small, capable lens to start a Nikon photo journey.

    A must-have for the Z5 Nikon!

    This lens is a must-have for the Z5 or really any of the full frame Z series Nikon camera bodies. It’s small, light, and the clarity and bokeh is….wow. And the colors. Spot on…

    Over performer

    Best standard prime for the money on any mirrorless system. Beautiful optic, plastic but extraordinarily sturdy and light. Excellent bokeh quality with minimal to no cat's-eye effect. Closer to the human eye than 50mm.
