Key Features
F/2.8 difference. The lens is twice as bright as an f/4 lens, giving you more control of light, more depth of field and more range of expression.

Versatile close shooting. Get as close as 0.68 inches at the 70mm zoom position and 2.79 feet at the 180mm zoom position for photos and videos that reveal the smallest details. Pairs great with Z teleconverters. Increase your reach by 2x (up to 360mm) with the Nikon Z Teleconverter 2.0x or 1.4x (up to 252mm) with the Z Teleconverter 1.4x (sold separately).
Suppressed focus breathing. When recording video, smoothly transition focus from foreground to background with virtually no change to the angle of view.
Lightweight and compact. With an approximate weight of 795g and under 6 inches in size, this is a lens for being on-the-go.
