The Nikon Nikkor Z 135 mm f/1.8 S Plena is a full-frame prime lens manufactured by Nikon for use on Nikon Z-mount mirrorless cameras.
The Plena is the second Nikkor Z-mount lens with a unique name (first being the Nikon Nikkor Z 58 mm f/0.95 S Noct), which is engraved in yellow into the metal lens barrel. According to Nikon, this mid-telephoto lens is built for edge-to-edge brightness, sharpness and dramatic, well-rounded bokeh even in the corners of the frame. Also according to Nikon, word "Plena" comes from the Latin "plenum" meaning full to the brim and overflowing, referring to the image properties and characteristics provided by the optics used in the lens. The lens’s projected image circle is significantly larger than the size of a full-frame sensor, this results in exceptionally low vignetting and minimal "cat's eye bokeh" in corners of image.
