Nikon @ CES 2019 updated the NIKKOR Z Lens Roadmap as follows:

• In August 2018, Nikon released the Z Mount S-Line lenses NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S, NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S and NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.8 S.

• Then a few days ago, Nikon expanded the S-line with the release of the Ultra-Wide-Angle Zoom Nikkor Z 14-30mm f/4 S lens.

• Therefore, as shown in the updated NIKKOR Z Lens Roadmap below, we expect that the standard prime NIKKOR Z 58mm f/0.95 S NOCT manual-focus lens will be released in a few months – probably March or April:

• The differences between the 2018 roadmap and 2019 roadmap are the changes in the timelines for the release of the following two lenses:
  – Nikkor Z 24mm f/1.8 S lens: year changed from 2020 to 2019
  – Nikkor Z 20mm f/1.8 S lens: year changed from 2019 to 2020.
• More NIKKOR Z lenses will be added in both 2020  (about four more) and 2021 (about seven more).
