Product Overview

The NIKKOR Z 58mm f/0.95 S Noct is Nikon's flagship lens for its new Z-mount mirrorless interchangeable lens camera system. With no compromise in cost, size, or weight, the NIKKOR sports Nikon's most advanced optical technologies for a well-balanced lens that delivers sharp stills and videos while creating smooth bokeh (out-of-focus areas).
Manual focus may be limiting to some, but purists will find it much more engaging. There are also fewer things to go wrong on the long run. For incremental weathers, Nikon is kind enough to include weather sealing.

Reviewers from cameralabs have found:
The Nikon Z 58mm f0.95 S Noct is an extraordinary lens. It combines an extra focal ratio with excellent optical performance. It’s extra large and extremely heavy, has no autofocus and is even more expensive than any Zeiss Otus. But the Nikon Z cameras offer focus peaking and a magnified viewfinder which makes it easy to focus precisely.
Pros
  • Unique focal ratio of f0.95
  • Compact and light
  • Excellent optics
Cons
  • Heavy and heavy
  • No autofocus
  • No manual focus
