Description

Go from wide-angle to telephoto with this double zoom kit. Includes the Z fc mirrorless camera plus two retractable zoom lenses. The NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR captures wide-angle to portrait views. The NIKKOR Z DX 50-250mm f/4.5-6.3 VR covers normal to telephoto views. Both lenses focus quietly, which makes this a great kit for video as well as stills.
