I'm in London doing street photography with the Nikkor Z 40mm f/2 lens. I'm using this compact prime lens with my Nikon Z7 to capture images at The Sky Garden, The Barbican, Camden Town and Covent Garden. Along the way, I'll be talking about the lens' features and flaws, as well as analysing its performance and quality.
