Nikon is rumored to introduce more fast f/1.2 Z mirrorless prime lenses


Nikon is rumored to announce more fast f/1.2 Z mirrorless prime lenses. Currently, there is only one f/1.2 lens in the latest Nikkor Z lineup – the Nikkor Z 50mm f/1.2 S. I do not have (yet) a time frame for the announcement or what focal lengths will be introduced. Stay tuned or contact me if you have any additional information.

Updatethere is already a patent for a Nikkor 36mm f/1.2 full-frame mirrorless lens.
