Cons:too little light, and therefore also the cost
Opinion:It can be fine as a handyman in situations with MOOOOLTA brightness. Already zooming a little comes soon to f6 so GOODBYE indoor photographs in conditions of medium brightness, unless you have a Z9 that responds very well to very high ISO. It can replace the supplied 24-70 f4, for a trip, given its versatility, minimum footprint and very low weight, but forget about doing serious things in dim environments such as indoor situations or sunsets. The mouth is 67mm so smaller than the 24-70 f4 (which has a 72mm) and therefore with the same zoom, iso times and aperture the photo comes out a darker hair, but you can compensate in post production. In essence? 750 euros are worth them, but no more. I do not return it because of the practicality and the minimum encumbrance, I am a hobbyist and I might as well carry less ballast with you. At the moment so I will carry around this, and the unsurpassed Z 14-24 f2.8 (which is worth gold for how much it weighs) for landscaping, while for indoor events I leave it at home.
Pros:Extremely versatile, relatively portable, perfect for amateurs
Cons:not very bright but not a big deal
Opinion:Let's immediately mark the fact that it is not one of the lenses of the PRO Nikon Z line. Having said that, to cover the focal range of this lens with the PRO, it takes 2, the 24-70 and the 70-200 that - if both pro - come to cost over 5K. For users like me who use the forographic machine for leisure and hobby, I would say that it is ideal and all in all also preferable to the 24 -70 f4. Despite the fateful f 4-6.3, I can reassure everyone that bokeh can be done and the risk of not being able to take a picture for low light is really minimal, especially if the camera body is a Z6/Z7 versions I or II, these machines in fact have a very good ISO seal. Just to give an example I set maximum ISO to 400 and it is really rare to have to raise them. In short, unless you have professional needs, I would recommend it without any doubt.
Opinion:Good goal, great all-rounder but, on Z7 with the ring adapt the 24/120 and also the 28/300 they still have something to say. Those who have one of the last two goals will consider whether it is worth buying. Certainly transportability; machine-lens make it a must. From this point of view, reducing the size of the equipment with the advent of the Z series brings us back to a past in which there were, for example the Pentax MX.
Pros:Excursion, weight and size, stabilization and sharpness by type of optics
Cons:Lack of af/mf button on optics
Opinion:I used the nikon 24-120 f4 for years in combination with SLRs and purchased this lens to replace that focal range. What to say, the 24-200 beats the old zoom in every respect: sharpness, distortion, size and reaches 200mm with still excellent quality. Very satisfied with the purchase. Only negative note is the lack of the Af/Mf switch. Construction more plastic than 14-30 but it is not an S, it is there!
Pros:Focal range - compactness - weight - sharpness - no distortion at 24 mm.
Cons:Low brightness is known, but it is good to know that it is already at 50mm (f/5.6).
Opinion:Higher than expected, and to think that I was very doubtful for an "all-rounder" with a similar range of focal points. From a comparison (coarse) with Nikon 70-200 f/4 at 200mm and f/11 I did not detect appreciable differences. These emerge - measuredly - always at 200mm and f/6.3, after cutting out a lot and zooming in significantly. Before we unbalance the high price - however not cheap - it is essential to prove it. The only possible drawback is..... not to take it off almost ever, at the expense of more suitable optics in certain circumstances. Always keep in your bag. Grade 9.7 (rounded to 10).
