Does Using a Cheap Filter Really Matter?.Spice Up Your Pictures with the Rule of Thirds.Eye Detection (Eye-AF) in Nikon Z6 and Z7.Darrell Young Search for Information Search Recent Posts He is a professional photographer and writer living within a few miles of the Appalachian Mountains. Having used both the Z7 and Z6 extensively in the preparation of my Mastering books, I am finding that F/4 is no impediment.ĭarrell Young is author of the Mastering the Nikon® DSLR series books, published by NikoniansPress and Rocky Nook, Inc. I’ll have the Nikon Z trinity for less money and high portability. Now, if Nikon will just come out with a Nikkor Z 70-200mm F/4 S lens, I’ll be standing in line for it too. And, if the Nikkor Z 14-30mm F/4 S lens is sharp like the 24-70 F/4 lens, I’m all in, even at US$1300, and I’m sure the price will drop after a few months. The price is high, but not as high as the AF-S version.
For the rest of the time, I absolutely love the small size of the F/4 lenses and their extreme sharpness edge-to edge. I have my F/2.8 lenses and the FTZ adapter when only an F/2.8 will do. My Nikkor Z 24-70mm F/4 S lens is sharper (and has almost no chromatic abberation) compared to my US$2000 AF-S Nikkor 24-70mm F/2.8G ED lens, and it is much smaller and lighter. Nikkor Z 14-30mm F/4 S lens – Extended ViewĪdditionally, I don’t mind losing the one stop advantage of the AF-S lens because I find that the IBIS in my Z7 and Z6 makes a big difference in usability and allows me to use the camera at a slower shutter speeds with great results. I don’t want to hang big, heavy lenses off the front of a small highly portable camera body. I think Nikon is quite intelligent to bring out these tiny but powerful lenses for the small Z-camera bodies. It will be sharp and aberration free, I’m sure. The Nikkor Z 14-30mm F/4 S lens has four ED elements, along with nano-crystal and fluorine coating. Plus, the Z 14-30mm lens gives me 6 more millimeters of reach, which means it will be even more useful. I love using a polarizer filter in my work and rarely use the AF-S Nikkor 14-24mm lens for that reason. The Z lens is the only extremely wide angle zoom with the ability to use a screw-in filter because it does not have a big bubble lens sticking out in front. Nikkor Z 14-30mm F/4 S lens – Front ViewĬomparing the Z 14-30mm S lens to the AF-S Nikkor 14-24mm F/2.8, I’m glad to save several hundred dollars for only one stop less light transmission, a significantly smaller size, and the ability to use an 82mm polarizer filter. However, in comparison to its AF-S cousin, I see some distinct benefits in the Nikkor Z 14-30mm F/4 S lens. I have been hearing some concern about the US$1300 cost of the Nikkor Z 14-30mm F/4 S lens.
