Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S

Product Information

You get the 24-120mm unless you absolutely need fast aperture and the sharpest zoom in the mount (24-70mm f/2. If the user is transitioning from interiors to exteriors, or between darker and lighter scenes, stable exposure control enables a natural shift in brightness for beautiful looking footage. The big knock on wide to tele zooms has always been that at the widest and longest focal lengths, image sharpness falls off considerably. Extensive weather sealing keeps both the camera—and Z series lenses and mount adapters—working as long as you do. The onion skin effect is a small thing that means a lot to some people; if you're among them, keep it in mind.

Edge clarity isn't perfect at 24mm f/4, but you'll get edge-to-edge sharp results for landscape scenes at f/5.
