The Nikon NIKKOR Z 70-180mm f/2.8 is one of the most popular focal length/aperture combinations of all time. Enough reach for wildlife, sports, and events, but also wide enough for portraits, landscapes, and everyday shooting. Beautiful background blur. Outstanding low-light performance. All in a lightweight, compact size—and price—that defies convention.
Beautifully Blurred Backgrounds
The shallow depth of field of the f/2.8 aperture combines with the natural compression of the telephoto focal length for a stunning three-dimensional effect.
More Detail in Low Light
On a Full-frame/FX-format Z series camera with in-body image stabilization, you can slow down shutter speeds to gather even more light without causing camera blur or raising ISO settings.
Telephoto Versatility
Cover a huge range of shots with a single lens, from landscapes and snapshots to sports, wildlife, and portraits.
Macro-Style Close-Focusing
Get as close to your subject as 10.68 inches at the 70mm zoom position and 2.79 feet at the 180mm zoom position for photos and videos that reveal the smallest details.
Lightweight Design
The NIKKOR Z 70-180mm f/2.8 is the lightest, most nimble full-frame f/2.8 telephoto zoom we've ever created. It's over 40 percent lighter and smaller than the NIKKOR Z 70-200mm f/2.8 S with a smaller diameter. This is a go-to lens for being on the go.
Suppressed Focus Breathing
When recording videos, smoothly transition focus from the foreground to the background with little change to the angle of view.
Tracks Eyes with Ease
Autofocus is powered by a highly accurate stepping motor that makes virtually no mechanical noises while tracking your subject—ideal for Eye-Detection AF, recording videos, and remaining silent while shooting.
Add Even More Reach
Attach a Z series 2x or 1.4x teleconverter and increase the focal length up to 360mm (540mm equivalent on an APS-C/DX-format camera or a full-frame or FX-format camera in DX-crop Mode).
Resists Dust, Drips, and Smudges
The entire lens is sealed to prevent dust and water droplets from getting between you and a great image. The front element features an antifouling coating that resists dirt, fingerprints, and smudges and is easy to clean.
