Nikon NIKKOR Z DX 12-28mm f/3.5-5.6 PZ VR

The NIKKOR Z DX 12-28mm f/3.5-5.6 PZ VR is an ultra-wide-angle power zoom lens for Nikon Z DX-format cameras. It weighs just 205 g and does not change length when zooming or focusing, making it ideal for gimbals and vlogging. Optical vibration reduction (VR) is rated at 4.5 stops, and the zoom can be controlled from camera buttons, the ML-L7 remote or the SnapBridge app.

A dynamic 12–28 mm zoom range

With this versatile ultra-wide zoom you can easily capture the whole scene or put yourself in the shot. Sweeping views draw your audience into the moment, and in tight interiors you can create a sense of space. A minimum focus distance of 0.19 m delivers sharp results even with unusual close-up perspectives.

Power zoom for every situation

The power zoom lets you zoom smoothly and steadily without touching the lens – ideal for vlogging or filming with a gimbal. Zoom with assignable buttons on the Nikon Z camera body, or remotely with the Nikon ML-L7 remote control or the SnapBridge app.

Light, balanced and gimbal-ready

The lens weighs just 205 g and is well balanced, so you can simply mount it and go. The barrel does not extend when focusing or zooming, the centre of gravity stays stable and balance is optimal both handheld and on a gimbal.

Creative zooming at your fingertips

Want to build atmosphere with a slow zoom or snap in on someone’s reaction? You can zoom from ultra-wide to wide over a slow 36 seconds, or cover the same range in just half a second. With 11 selectable speeds you have precise control over zoom speed.

Vibration reduction (VR) for maximum stability

This power zoom lens is a great choice for vlogging. Built-in vibration reduction (VR) rated at up to 4.5 stops keeps footage clean and blur-free while walking and talking or panning handheld. The NORMAL and SPORT VR modes of Nikon Z cameras are optimised for still and moving subjects.
