Better protection against dust and moisture.

With no extending or retracting parts, dust and moisture have less chance of entering the sealed lens, and the barrel is stronger and lighter.1

Nikon’s best AF system
to date.

Enhanced tracking while zooming.

Focus tracking performance during zooming is enhanced by approx. 60%*, making it easier to keep your subject in focus while quickly zooming in or out.

Smooth focus transitions during push-ins.

Focus breathing has been suppressed to staggering new levels—less than half the amount of the previous generation 24-70mm f/2.8 lens—and the fast, silent AF system tracks subjects without jitter during push-ins. "*Best AF performance is achieved when used on a camera equipped with an EXPEED 7 image processor. Measured in accordance with Nikon standards."

World’s lightest full-frame
24-70mm f/2.8*.

A full 15% (130g) lighter than its predecessor and more nimble than any other lens in its class at just 675g. Whether you're shooting with your camera rigged up, on a gimbal or handheld, you'll enjoy all-day comfort and agile handling.

Close focus distance.
High magnification.

Focus as close as 9.4 inches at 24mm, or magnify subjects up to 0.32x at 70mm. Since the lens doesn't get longer as you zoom, you won't risk accidentally bumping into close foreground elements.

Image quality that rivals prime lenses.

The superior sharpness of
a Z mount lens.

Nikon's groundbreaking large mount delivers ample light across the frame for edge-to-edge sharpness and clear description at every focal length, even when shot wide open.
Beautiful bokeh of the NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S II lens shown in a portrait of a young woman

Beautiful bokeh and
natural gradation.

The combination of a constant f/2.8 aperture and 11 rounded diaphragm blades produces soft, round bokeh with natural gradation that gives your subject an almost 3D quality.

Flawless rendering of an image shown in a photo of an athlete taken with the NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S II

Virtually flawless rendering.

Extra-low Dispersion (ED) and Aspherical ED glass elements keep resolution high while suppressing undesirable fringing, distortion and false color.
