NEW YORK , June 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- B&H is excited to announce the first macro lenses for Nikon's Z-series mirrorless cameras: the NIKKOR Z MC 50mm f/2.8 and 105mm f/2.8 VR S —both providing 1:1 life-size magnification. Perfect for small subjects, close-ups, and creative applications, these lenses balance exacting optical performance with low distortion. Together, the duo allows Nikon mirrorless shooters to achieve a 1:1 magnification ratio with a native Z-mount lens instead of needing to rely on an adapter and F-mount lenses or extension tubes. Whether you are photographing flowers, insects, jewelry, portraits, or other creative macro subjects, these lenses promise exacting image rendering with minimal distortion.
The Nikon 105mm f/2.8 VR S , the newest member of the premium S-series of lenses, features a dual motor multi-focus STM system for quick, quiet, and reliable focusing as close as 11.4 inches ( 0.29m ). A manual focusing ring is also included for fine tuning focus. At its closest range, the maximum aperture of the lens bumps up to f/4.5. To keep images sharp, the 105mm offers 5 stops of vibration reduction and 5-axis stabilization when used with a Z-series camera.
