What these focal lengths actually give you on the Nikon Z30
The Nikon Z30 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 Z30 you want a lens marked around 16mm or shorter.
