Meike MK-50mm f/1.7 Lens for Nikon Z
Key Features
  • Z-Mount Lens/FX Format
  • Aperture Range: f/1.7 to f/22
  • Multilayered Coating
  • Manual Focus Design
A bright, standard prime for Nikon Z-mount mirrorless cameras, the MK-50mm f/1.7 from Meike is a versatile lens, suitable for a range of subjects from portraits to landscapes. The f/1.7 maximum aperture enables working in difficult lighting conditions and also offers increased control over depth of field. Benefitting working in strong lighting conditions, a multilayered coating is also used to reduce flare and ghosting for greater contrast and color accuracy. This manual focus lens permits working with subjects as close as 1.6' away and a printed focusing scale aids with prefocusing techniques.
