Best portrait lens for the nikon z50?

For portraits on the Z50, aim for about 50mm full-frame equivalent, which is 33mm on this APS-C body. The Nikon Z50 lens list has a few good fits at that length:

• Viltrox AF 33mm f/1.4: the simplest pick if you want a fast 50mm-equivalent look.
• Sirui Sniper 33mm f/1.2: the widest aperture on the list, for the most background blur.
• Meike 33mm f/1.4 STM: another fast 33mm option to compare.
• Nikon Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S: if you'd rather zoom, this covers portrait framing from wide to short telephoto.

Whichever you pick, the portraits guide makes the point that light matters more than the lens. Put your subject near a window and expose for the face.
