Best landscape lenses for the Nikon Zfc
22 landscape lenses that fit the Nikon Zfc (Nikon Z mount) — sharp, wide, often weather-sealed. Sorted brightest-aperture first; every spec from the manufacturer's catalog.
Start with the Meike AF 24mm f/1.4 MIX. At f/1.4 it is the brightest of the 22 landscape Nikon Z lenses that fit the Nikon Zfc — the full comparison is below.
It is a full-frame lens. It fits and shoots at full resolution, and the glass often carries over if you move to a full-frame body later — but for the same framing it is larger, heavier and dearer than a lens built for this sensor. The brightest APS-C option here is Viltrox AF 15mm f/1.7 Air at f/1.7.

One limit of this table: it lists only Nikon Z lenses that mount natively on the Nikon Zfc — lenses fitted through an adapter are not included here. See which mounts adapt to which.
What these focal lengths actually give you on the Nikon Zfc
The Nikon Zfc has an APS-C sensor, so it sees a 1.5× crop of what each lens projects. Every focal length below therefore frames 1.5× tighter than its marked number. That works against you here: the widest option, the Viltrox AF 9mm f/2.8 Air, frames like 14mm — not as wide as its marked number suggests. For a genuinely wide view on the Nikon Zfc you want a lens marked around 16mm or shorter.
