Kase 200mm f/5.6 Reflex Lens for Nikon Z

The Kase 200mm f/5.6 Reflex Lens is specifically designed for Nikon Z-mount full-frame cameras. This manual focus lens utilizes a unique reflection mechanism, making it an ideal tool for photographers looking to create captivating images.

With its two mirrored elements, this lens reflects light back and forth, producing a distinct "donut" effect that is particularly pronounced in the depth of field.
