Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S

Product Information

I wasn’t able to detect any chromatic aberration to date, but this could be because of how the Z bodies handle such character flaws in the camera. We also offer product videos, reviews and image samples to help you to choose which camera or lens is right for you. I used the Nikon Z 24-120mm f4 S (that I own) on a Nikon Z9 (a loan body) and Nikon Z6 II (my own) with a range of UV filters from H+Y, Hoya, Sigma, and the Irix Edge Vari ND 2-5 Filter.

This is heavily dependent on the body you use, but the lens kept up even with the super-fast AF on the Z9. The zoom design offers a little more telephoto compression than the Canon RF 24-105mm F4 or Sony FE 24-105mm F4 sold for competing systems. This versatile, high-powered Nikon zoom lens centres around a lightweight exterior body, advanced optics, and a vast zoom range. But then its focal length stops at 120mm vs the 200mm of the super-zoom, which gives you 67% more reach. Focus is achieved with two stepping motors that move two different groups of elements within the lens.

Scientific evidence suggests that artificial light at night has negative and deadly effects on wildlife, including amphibians, birds, insects, and mammals. The Nikon AF-S 24-120mm f4G VR is currently at 850 EUR / 1097 USD / 1079 GBP, the Nikon Z 24-200mm f2.

Actual focus speed can be quite fast (and very quiet) in good light with the correct AF-Area mode set. The ring has just enough resistance to make fine adjustments to manual focusing, without having too much give. I also tested whether Nikon’s zoom lens allows you to change the focal length without altering its focus. Because with the Z 24-120mm f/4 S, Nikon has made one of the best all-around midrange zooms that I’ve ever tested.This lens has a 9 blade diaphragm which creates an attractive blur to the out-of-focus areas of the image and it has a dust and drip resistant design. It’s a constant pattern: I pass a photographer out in nature, glance at their camera, and inevitably see something like an 18-55mm or 24-105mm mounted to their camera. The Nikon Nikkor Z 24-120mm F4 S provides excellent optical performance for detailed images with defocused backgrounds and focused close-ups for macros.
