Groundbreaking peripheral illumination

The NIKKOR Z 135mm f/1.8 S Plena’s innovative design delivers more light to the edges and corners of the frame across the entire aperture range-uniform brightness that invites viewers to explore every inch of your creation.

Wide open without vignetting

With so much light reaching the corners of your frame, you won’t have to stop down your aperture to prevent vignetting—it’s already minimized by design.

A lens only Nikon could create

The extra-wide diameter of Nikon’s Z mount allows for a larger curved rear element that projects light evenly across a full-frame image sensor.

Exquisite foreground and background bokeh

Add spectacular drama and style to your photos and videos with large, round bokeh that spreads across the entire frame, right to the edges.

Smooth, natural gradation

Sharp details melt away into dreamlike orbs that gracefully envelop the focal plane.

Stunning without stopping down

An 11-rounded-blade aperture gives the bokeh its beautiful near-circular shape even at its widest setting of f/1.8.

Pure color and sharp edges

Advanced SR and ED glass lens elements produce bokeh free of onion rings and color fringing.

Astonishing precision and clarity

Combine soft shallow depth of field with breathtaking high resolution. The delicate textures of skin and hair are meticulously rendered with lifelike nuance, free from chromatic aberrations.

Point light, totally on-point

City lights and stars are captured with refined brilliance across the entire frame, giving nighttime photos and videos an unparalleled level of clarity.

Cut through the glare and flare

Nikon’s most advanced anti-reflective coatings, Meso Amorphous Coat and ARNEO Coat, are combined to overcome the harshest light coming from multiple directions.

Fast, accurate and near-silent autofocus

Nikon’s Multi-Focus System uses dual STM stepping motors moving in sync for enhanced precision, especially when shooting wide open. The ultra-fast system also operates in near-silence, so you can track moving subjects without mechanical noises or vibrations.

Add a new dimension to your footage

With smooth, responsive, quiet handling and a manageable 995 g total weight, the NIKKOR Z 135mm f/1.8 S Plena can bring extraordinary depth and richness to your 8K and 4K footage.

Smooth, precise focus pulls with minimal breathing

Linear focus is available in either rotation direction when using compatible Z series cameras, and your framing remains remarkably consistent even when moving focus from the foreground to the background.

Power aperture makes it easy to maintain your lighting

Use the clickless control ring or your camera’s Fn1 and Fn2 buttons to smoothly, steplessly open and close the aperture, allowing you quickly to respond to lighting changes beyond the reach of Auto ISO.
