Nikon Nikkor Z MC 50 mm f/2.8

1. Introduction

The full frame Nikon Z system was launched in August 2018. At the beginning the company focused on offering just several basic zoom lenses and a series of f/1.8 primes. Still the times goes on and the lack of dedicated macro lenses was more and more keenly felt. Nikon decided to patch that gap - in June 2021 they showed two models of that type at once, the Nikkors Z MC 50 mm f/2.8 and the Z MC 105 mm f/2.8.

Courtesy of a very quick reaction of Nikon Poland the first of these lenses was sent to our editorial office immediately after its official launch. In the next chapters we are presenting the results of our testing procedure and our general opinion about this lens – enjoy your reading!

You are also invited to get acquainted with our test procedure, described in the article "How do we test lenses?" If you feel it’s still not enough, please go to our FAQ section where you can find some further explanation.
