What is the nikon z dx 24mm f 1 7 good for?

The Nikon Z DX 24mm f/1.7 is a small autofocus prime for APS-C cameras. On those bodies it frames like a 36mm lens on full frame, a comfortable everyday view that is wide enough for groups and streets without pulling in too much background. At f/1.7 it gives about the background blur of f/2.5 at the same framing, so it suits casual portraits and dim rooms. It has no stabilisation, so keep your shutter speed up for handheld shots.

It works natively on the Z50, Z fc, Z30 and Z50 II. Full-frame Z bodies such as the Z6 II can also use it in APS-C crop mode, at lower resolution. For vlogging at arm's length, it's too tight, so look at a wider lens instead. If you're not sure how your sensor changes the view, the sensor sizes guide explains it.
