The bright, close-focusing prime for DX sensor Nikon Z cameras is light and priced to own.
Nikon is turning its attention to the DX sensor format for the second lens release in a row. The compact Nikkor Z DX 24mm F1.7 prime follows the Z DX 12-28mm from last month, so it’s more good news for creators who’ve picked up a stylish Z fc for photos or a Z 30 for video and vlogs. At least for those looking to add some lenses to their kit.
The Z DX 24mm uses an optical formula made for the APS-C sensor size used in these cameras. It allows Nikon to realize a moderately wide angle F1.7 prime in a 4.8-ounce pancake form factor; the prime juts out a mere 1.6 inches from the mount.
