Customers regard the NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 lens as a great value for its price, with sharp image quality and a compact size. It is also lightweight and has a wide f/2 aperture, making it suitable for low-light photography. However, some customers have expressed concerns about the lens being mostly made of plastic.
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.

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…
