Product description
Nikon NIKKOR Z 135mm f/1.8 S Plena – subject isolation with character
The NIKKOR Z 135mm f/1.8 S Plena is a fast telephoto prime lens from Nikon's S-Line. The combination of 135 mm focal length and a fast f/1.8 maximum aperture makes it particularly suitable for portraits, fashion, weddings, detail shots and creative video. Subjects can be clearly separated from the background, while the longer focal length allows a calm, compressed perspective.
Soft bokeh right into the corners
The optical design is optimised for evenly bright images and harmonious out-of-focus rendering. Eleven rounded aperture blades support almost perfectly circular highlights. As a result, points of light in the blurred background remain pleasantly shaped even near the edges of the frame, and distracting colour fringing is effectively reduced.
Sophisticated S-Line optics
The lens consists of 16 elements in 14 groups. Four ED elements, one aspherical element and one SR element help control chromatic and spherical aberrations. Meso Amorphous and ARNEO coatings reduce ghosting and flare, even in backlight or with light sources entering from the side.
Fast focus and direct control
Internal focusing enables fast, precise focusing without changing the length of the lens. Two programmable L-Fn buttons are easy to reach with the camera held horizontally or vertically. Depending on the camera, the separate control ring can be assigned to aperture, ISO or exposure compensation, for example, and operates almost silently.
For demanding photo and video work
The metal housing combines high-quality workmanship with balanced handling. Seals help protect against dust and dripping water, without guaranteeing complete resistance under all conditions. At around 995 g, the Plena integrates well into professional Nikon Z kits despite its fast aperture and complex optics.
