Will it fit?

What lenses fit the Nikon D850?

The short answer

The Nikon D850 has a Nikon F mount and a full frame sensor. Nikon F lenses fit directly. LPL, Canon EF, Canon FD, M42, Leica M, Fujifilm G, Canon RF, L-Mount, Micro Four Thirds, Sony E, Fujifilm X and Nikon Z lenses can't be adapted to its Nikon F mount.

Every lens mount on the Nikon D850

Fits directly

  • Nikon F lenses

    The camera's own mount — nothing extra needed.

No standard adapter

  • PL lenses

    Physically possible, but there's no standard PL-to-Nikon F adapter — ask the owner.

Won't fit

    A LPL lens needs to sit closer to the sensor than the Nikon F mount allows, so there's no room for an adapter.

    A Canon EF lens needs to sit closer to the sensor than the Nikon F mount allows, so there's no room for an adapter.

  • Canon FD lenses

    A Canon FD lens needs to sit closer to the sensor than the Nikon F mount allows, so there's no room for an adapter.

  • M42 lenses

    A M42 lens needs to sit closer to the sensor than the Nikon F mount allows, so there's no room for an adapter.

  • Leica M lenses

    A Leica M lens needs to sit closer to the sensor than the Nikon F mount allows, so there's no room for an adapter.

  • Fujifilm G lenses

  • L-Mount lenses

    A L-Mount lens needs to sit closer to the sensor than the Nikon F mount allows, so there's no room for an adapter.

Some cameras can have a different lens mount fitted by a technician. If a rental comes that way the listing will say so, and this table won't apply.

Sensor coverage

Lenses made for full frame and large format cover its full frame sensor fully.

Lenses made for Super 16, Micro Four Thirds and Super 35 throw a smaller image, so expect dark corners unless you shoot in a crop mode that matches.
