Pros: All

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: I use the 16-80 2.8-4 on a D7200 and its full-frame counterpart 24-120 f4 on the D750. From an optical point of view it seems better than the 24-120 even if the result on the full frame is overall superior, constructively it is designed to privilege lightness with the greater use of resins. I think it is the best zoom lens available for a Nikon apsc reflex, I do not find any particular defects to report, sharp and contrasted at all focal lengths,

Pros: Quality, sharpness and contrast

Cons: Bulky lens hood

Opinion: Excellent lens, I used it on a Nikon D7200, the photos have good contrast and sharpness, the colors are also excellent, the image stabilizer is exceptional. I had the sigma 17-50 f2.8 replaced because of the locked aperture, it was very good especially the sharpness, nothing to say, however the Nikon 16-80 is much better, in everything.

Pros: quality from TA, AF, relatively compact, well balanced.

Cons: Huge lens hood, replaced with HB-75

Opinion: Bought used at a very good price ( 400€ ) on the market, to have a std zoom for the Z fc. Not that the 16-50 is bad, on the contrary, but not very bright yes. The footprint between 16-80 + FTZ + lens hood although changed with HB-75 is remarkable but well balanced, suitable for all circumstances, from indoor portrait to outdoor events. The best performance at the widest apertures but up to f11 no diffraction. The AF is very good, responsive, area wide, it locks the eye or the face and does not let go. Excellent or very good up to the edges, a bit of thoughtful landscaping on a tripod can be done. Since it lacks native fixed Z dx is a valid alternative.

Pros: sharpness, contrast, compactness, focal range

Cons: stars at f/2.8 (better 3.5 or 4), bulky hood

Opinion: Room: D7500 Excellent all-rounder taken as a replacement for the 18-140 that had never convinced me. So, after selling the zoom kit, I decided to buy this lens. In comparison to the other, the leap in quality is definitely evident on all focal lengths (as well as the price, which justifies this excellent lens for DX). The only moles are the fact that the stars are not really the maximum at f / 2.8 (defect that disappears at f / 4, but you lose a whole stop!) and that the hood is really bulky and impractical. Would I regain this goal? Certainly, without a doubt.

Pros: Sharpness, contrast, resolution, quick focus, high quality, compact and lightweight zoom in DX 24-120 valid for all occasions.

Cons: The hood is not up to the lens.

Opinion: I use it in tandem with the D500, and it's a winning pair. The images, from the telephoto to 120 on the right, to the wide angle 24, is always a truly excellent yield, comparable and competitive with the best and most expensive Nikon lenses even of fixed focal length. The sharpness is amazing, the colors fantastic, and the contrast at the highest level. I think that in a right kit can not miss, to keep tight. The average 9.2 rating seems to me little and is penalizing, for a lens that would certainly deserve a nice 9.6 minimum ....
