Opinion:A lens to be discovered, some photographers (especially reportageists) over time simplify their language to the point of adopting 1.2 fixed lenses. (this is the case of the recently deceased Grande Berengo), and the 70-90 degree wide-angle lens is chosen as the main lens by many. This 26mm, for its perspective and the proportions I see on the resulting photo when there is a subject in the foreground can solve the dilemma (24 or 28mm?) making a very natural perspective: congratulations to Nikon. A con that I want to point out: pay LOT attention to the rear lens which is so close to the sensor that it projects any impurity (dust, innocent spittoons) on the sensor, greatly magnifying its shadow, to the point of "ruining" a series without our knowledge. Good pictures !
Cons:Cost, noisy focus motor compared to average S lenses
Opinion:the lens that as an old Nikon reflexist I have always wanted finally at Nikon on the Z system. Its greatest advantage is undoubtedly its portability and it is really convenient to carry. I mounted it on a z5 and was able to carry it in a decent fanny pack all summer. Of course, reducing the size of a lens so much has contraindications. The focus at least with the z5 is sometimes a bit uncertain, the sharpness although good is not comparable with the fixed S such as the 35 f/1.8. In many situations if it hadn't been for the 26mm I would have left the camera at home and instead I was able to take it with me even to the beach. The reactions of people in case of street or stolen portraits are surprising, they do not notice it or do not pay attention to it and with this I conclude.
Cons:Noisy AF, hood with soft locking snap. Difficulty at the edges in FF
Opinion:Update: An invisible optic that makes beautiful photos and this is what you look for even in the face of such an important cost for a Pancake. Flawless but noisy AF. In Aps-C the optics perform well and also hides a relative softness at the edges that on FF my z6Ii and Z8 do not forgive. To re-evaluate the final grade, only an 8.5 given the lightness and compactness.
