By PR admin | Published: February 23, 2026





The previously rumored Nikkor Z 70-200mm f/2.8 II lens is now officially announced:

  • Lightest in its class. 26% lighter than its predecessor, thanks to thinner lens elements and a reduction in the total number of elements in the optical design.
  • Internal zoom. Ideal for use with gimbals and matte boxes, with no change to center of gravity when zoom position is changed.
    Faster, quieter, even more accurate. Multi-focus system with Silky Swift Voice Coil Motors (SSVCM) is 3.5x faster and 17.5x more precise than the previous generation.
  • Custom control. Control ring click on/off switch lets you choose between precise, incremental click adjustments** for smooth, seamless changes.
  • Close focus/high magnification. Focus as close as 15 inches at 70mm, with a maximum magnification of 0.3x.
  • Superb sharpness at close minimum focus distance of 38cm
  • Balanced internal zoom mechanism allows for use on gimbals
  • Arca-Swiss tripod foot enables easy tripod attachment
