Nikon NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 Lens - Brand New review
The Z 40mm f2.0 is a much smaller, lighter and cheaper lens than the Z 50mm f1.8 S or Z 35mm f1.8 S. Its optical performance is not on the same level as from the S-line Nikkors but the new lens is still a solid performer and offers a better light gathering power and smoother Bokeh than the Z 28mm...

Nikon NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 Lens - Brand New review
There is no doubt that the lens delivers an excellent to outstanding performance, and at a very keen price. Add to that the small, light form factor and we have perhaps an ideal travelling companion.
Pros:
- Excellent to outstanding sharpness, Very low CA, Modest vignetting, Low distortion, Virtually no flare, Pleasant bokeh, Light and compact, Dust and water sealing

Nikon NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 Lens - Brand New review
At just under £249/$300 the Nikon Nikkor Z 40mm f/2 is a great-value lens. It has a couple of quirks but it generally produces very good quality images and it’s a lovely size and weight.

Cons:
- No focus scale, Single control ring, AF struggles near the closest focus distance

Nikon NIKKOR Z 40mm f/2 Lens - Brand New review
Of course it doesn't change the fact that, nevertheless, the Nikkor Z 40 mm f/2 might be a joy to use as it is able to take sharp, crisp photos. Compared to its system 1.8/35 and 1.8/50 brothers it will also allow you to save a lot of money.
Pros:
- very good resolution in the frame centre,, negligible longitudinal chromatic aberration,, slight lateral chromatic aberration,, practically zero distortion,, low astigmatism,, slight vignetting on the APS-C/DX sensor,, sensible performance against bright light,, silent and accurate autofocus.
Cons:
- blurry edges of the frame near the maximum relative aperture,, significant vignetting on full frame,, a bit too high coma,, both mount and barrel made of plastics.

Nikon Nikkor Z 40mm F2 Review
The affordable, background-blurring Nikon Nikkor Z 40mm F2 lens focuses a bit slowly, but we like the characterful look of its images. Although it isn't a member of Nikon's premium S Line of lenses, the Nikkor Z 40mm F2 ($299.95) still draws lovely photos with defocused backgrounds wide open and delivers tack-sharp results at smaller f-stops. It's one of the better values in the Nikon Z system overall. The lens makes some compromises to meet its budget-friendly price—namely, it forgoes weather protection and doesn't offer a reliable autofocus experience for moving subjects. But it nonetheless presents plenty of appeal for both FX and DX camera owners who want a low-cost option that captures a unique view of the world.The Nifty Forty In the SLR days, low-cost 50mm lenses all fell under the Nifty Fifty moniker—that includes characterful, background-blurring primes like the old Nikkor AF-S 50mm F1.8 G and rival Canon's EF 50mm F1.8 STM. For its mirrorless version, Nikon opted for a wider 40mm angle that makes it useful as an everyday carry for both full-frame (FX) and APS-C (DX) format sensors. Our Experts Hav...

Nikon Z 40mm f/2 review: this cheap, modern 'nifty forty' has been my everyday lens for over a year and it hasn't let me down
Nikon's entry-level prime combines a pocket-friendly price and form factor with surprisingly good optical performance. The lens exhibits some idiosyncrasies with corner sharpness and coma but makes up for it with a robust lightweight build, great center sharpness, and rare splash resistance at this...
Pros:
- Superb value, Impressive performance, Splash and dust resistance
Cons:
- Plastic mount and thread, Some coma on extreme edges, Soft at minimal focus distance
