At 135g it is significantly lighter than full-frame Z primes and suitable as an everyday carry lens on DX bodies (Z30, Z50, Zfc). The 46mm filter thread is compact.
On the used market the Nikon Z DX 24mm f/1.7 is affordable as a compact fast normal prime for Z DX. Condition checks: AF response, 46mm front element for marks. DX APS-C only — full-frame Z bodies apply crop mode. Compatible with Nikon Z APS-C bodies (Z30/Z50/Zfc) and full-frame bodies in DX crop.
