About the Product
With the world’s widest full-frame lens mount, the agile Z 6 mirrorless camera can capture light as never before. The wide 55 mm mount diameter means your Z series camera takes in more light. Just 16 mm between the mount and the camera’s full-frame image sensor means more of that light reaches the sensor.
How what you see with Nikon Z cameras and NIKKOR Z lenses. Nikon’s mirrorless system is built around the world’s widest lens mount, which lets you capture more light. With more light, comes more detail, more depth, more colour. Incredible photos.
