Nikon's 24mm f/1.8 S: a wide-angle prime built for Z-mount precision

At 24mm with an f/1.8 maximum aperture, this lens covers an 84-degree angle of view while giving you meaningful low-light latitude that slower zooms can't match. The optical formula runs 12 elements across 10 groups, with aspherical elements keeping geometric distortion in check and ED glass reducing chromatic aberration at the edges of the frame where wide-angles typically struggle. Nano Crystal Coating and Super Integrated Coating work together to cut flare and ghosting, which matters most when you're shooting into strong backlight or working under artificial sources at night.

At 15.87 oz and 96.5mm in length, this is a lens that disappears on a Z-series body without making you think twice about carrying it all day. The 25cm minimum focusing distance gives wide-angle shooters closer access to foreground elements than the focal length might suggest, useful for environmental work where layering near and far subjects adds depth. A 72mm filter thread accommodates polarizers and NDs without stepping rings. For a native Z-mount prime at this focal length, the S-line optical standard means you're not accepting trade-offs to get a compact package.

Who It's For

Landscape photographers get an 84-degree field of view with ED glass correcting the chromatic fringing that plagues lesser wide-angles at the frame edges. Architecture shooters benefit from the aspherical elements keeping straight lines honest across the full image circle on a full-frame body. Documentary and reportage photographers will use the f/1.8 aperture to work in available light without switching to flash. Travel photographers who prioritize a light kit get a 450g prime that covers one of the most useful focal lengths for environmental storytelling.

FAQ

What's the angle of view on this 24mm?
84 degrees, which is wide enough for environmental portraiture and tight interiors without resorting to ultra-wide territory where distortion becomes a liability.
How close can you focus with the Z 24mm f/1.8 S?
25cm (9.84 inches) minimum focusing distance, letting you work closer to foreground elements than you'd typically expect from a 24mm prime.
Does this lens have autofocus?
Yes, autofocus is built in for Z-mount bodies. The optical design prioritizes speed and low-light performance over gimmicks.
What coatings are used to handle flare and ghosting?
Nano Crystal Coating and Super Integrated Coating work together to suppress flare and ghosting, especially important when shooting into backlight or mixed artificial sources.
How many aperture blades does this lens have?
Not specified in the verified data, but the optical formula uses 12 elements across 10 groups with aspherical and ED elements to maintain sharpness and minimize aberrations across the frame.
What filter size does this lens take?
72mm, standard enough that polarizers and neutral density filters won't require step rings.
How much does the Z 24mm f/1.8 S weigh?
450 grams (15.87 oz), light enough that you won't notice it on a Z-series body during a full day of shooting.
