Product Description

The NIKKOR Z 135mm f/1.8 S Plena prime lens takes your artistic visions to the limits. Whether shooting portraits, still life or cinema this lens adds dramatic and shallow depth of field with its large, circular edge-to-edge bokeh as well as flattering focal length for more natural-appearing portraits. It is an ideal lens to capture moments clear as real life, or add artistic flare for a dream-like state.

Beauty that reaches every corner

Take your artistry to the edge with the NIKKOR Z 135mm f/1.8 S Plena, a 135mm prime unlike any before it. Astonishing edge-to-edge clarity. Dreamlike circular bokeh. A focal length treasured for portraits, still life, cinema and landscapes. All with superlative craftsmanship and performance optimized for wide-open shots. Plentiful. Abundant. Extraordinary. This is the Plena.

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.

An S-Line NIKKOR Z lens

At the top of the NIKKOR Z lineup

Special lenses developed in pursuit of a higher level of optical performance - lenses that push the boundaries of traditional design, meet a higher standard of quality and enable new forms of image creation.

I cannot say enough good things about Pixel Connection. I've bought multiple camera bodies - new and used - from them, along with several lenses, and they simply cannot be beat. Super helpful on the phone, good prices, and willing to work with customers to make the right solution happen. Pixel Connection is where I look first when buying camera equipment.

I am a cosmetic dentist so my photography is very important to me. I needed my camera set up for ease of use and custom settings. Jesse and Sam are so knowledgeable. Those two men helped me quickly and the Pixel store is open until 7 pm so I was able to get this done before my next working day! I also noticed Pixel has everything one needs for cameras, video and audio, social media, drones and even film! Check this store out for yourself for quality service and products!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My latest experience with ThePixelConnection was absolutely phenomenal. Matt and Ari went above and beyond to ensure I got the camera I needed, even when it seemed impossible. The item I needed was out of stock everywhere else, but they didn’t stop there—they took the extra step to contact the manufacturer directly and managed to secure a new unit straight from the factory. Thanks to their incredible effort, I received my camera just in time for an important event. What truly sets ThePixelConnection apart is the personal touch they bring to every interaction. Unlike my experiences with B&H—which, while efficient and resourceful, often feel very clinical and transactional—ThePixelConnection makes you feel like a genuinely valued customer. I’ve worked with B&H for years and spent a small fortune with them, but if ThePixelConnection has what I need, they’re always my first choice. Their team is passionate, knowledgeable, and deeply committed to ensuring you get exactly what you’re looking for. Matt, in particular, is a seasoned professional with extensive expertise in photography and their product lineup. His guidance and dedication made the entire process effortless and stress-free. If you’re looking for exceptional service from a team that truly values its customers, look no further than ThePixelConnection. They’ve earned my loyalty, and I can’t recommend them highly enough!
