The background of Nikon Z-mount
Nikon Z-mount lenses are part of Nikon's line of full-frame mirrorless camera lenses designed for use with their Nikon Z series cameras. The Z-mount system was introduced in 2018 with the launch of the Nikon Z7 and Z6 cameras, marking Nikon's entry into the full-frame mirrorless camera market. The Z-mount has a larger diameter and a shorter flange distance compared to Nikon's previous F-mount, allowing for the development of compact and versatile lenses with excellent image quality. Nikon has released a range of Z-mount lenses, including standard and telephoto zooms, fast primes, and macro lenses, to provide a wide selection of options for photographers and videographers. The Z-mount system is also compatible with Nikon's FTZ mount adapter, which allows the use of F-mount lenses on Z-mount cameras, providing even greater versatility and lens options.

More reasons to rent a Nikkor Z-series lens
Beautiful bokeh Beautifully blurred backgrounds naturally direct the viewer's eyes to the main subject. The nine rounded aperture blades of S-Line lenses give out-of-focus points of light a soft, rounded, consistent shape.
Little focus breathing in the S line Focus breathing is a small shift in the viewing angle that can occur when the focus is adjusted. This effect can be choppy at times, especially during video recording. With S-Line lenses, focus breathing is almost completely eliminated, so that the composition remains consistent while you adjust the focus.
Dust resistant and drip proof Comprehensive sealing to keep out dust and moisture, especially around all moving parts of the lens barrel, for worry-free durability.
Strong in portraits Spontaneous portraits of people or your cat or dog just got better. Eye detection AF tracks the eyes for perfect people portraits. Animal Detection AF does the same for dogs and cats. Focus remains accurate even if the subject moves.
Superb point light reproduction Point light sources in nighttime photos tend to fan out and become unnatural. S-Line lenses are designed to more accurately reproduce point light sources for natural-looking shots and more beautiful bokeh.
Nikon lenses can be rented from a large number of rental companies throughout the country.
