Notes

In this video review, we are going to have a look at the Nikkor Z 50 f/1.2 S lens. It is Nikon’s first f/1.2 lens for the Z mirrorless system and almost 40 years since they released their previous 50mm f/1.2 lens, Nikon AIS 50mm f/1.2. So we are going to do a bit of comparison between these two lenses and see what is the biggest improvements and difference of the new Z lens.
