Fantastic lens. A portable wide angle zoom with superb image quality. Blows my old nikon 14-28 f2.8 out of the water.

Great size and image quality

I took this lens on a hike in the desert and I am blown away with how fast it focuses and the image rendering is superb. Distortion is way less then I expected for such a wide lens. I actually like it a lot more and use it a lot more than I expected. I am happy with my decision to give it a try. It's a keeper and perfect for landscape work and more.

Use it more than expected.

It's an amazing lens. very slightly to take and absolutely good image quality you can get. Definitely recemmond.

Perfect lens

As far as now my experience has been really good with this lens. I have my doubts mostly because I read some reviews with poor qualifications.  My opinion is 180 degrees different.  Sharp images, nice wide views, small weight. Good performance.

Very good wide lens

I have tried nearly all the wide angle zooms for the Nikon F and Z mounts. This is the best to date. It is wonderfully sharp and contrasty. Some might say too contrasty, but paired with the latest Nikon sensors, there is enough information in the shadow areas, even the edges that have been modified by de-vignetting algorithms, to bring information to bear. The lens is far more usable than the 14-24mm f2.8 being lighter and more responsive.

A superb mate for Nikon's latest 45mp sensors. Ideal for property photography.

I can't believe that I waited so long to buy this lens. For landscape photography it's a must-have. So happy with getting that extra width over my 24-70mm f2.8. Absolutely love this lens.

Beautiful images

I've never owned a lens this wide before and I find it has a bit of a learning curve in terms of focus area and keeping the camera level.  I am still experimenting with the focus area settings and find the image quality to be excellent.

excellent

Although I haven't had much chance to really get out and dig deep into this lens, I do like it a lot.  Small, light, easy to carry, wonderfully sharp.  82mm filters are a joy compared to the old 14-24mm f/2.8 F mount, which needed a 3rd party adapter to use filters.  

My only gritch (and it's a small one) is the need to rotate the zoom ring before taking photos.  It's the only lens I own that requires that.  Even my 24-120mm f/4S doesn't.  I suppose there's a reason, but I can't imagine what that reason is.  Even so, it's not such a big deal as to stand in the way of a great little lens.

Small, light, wonderfully sharp.

Wow what a lens. Light and very packable for hikes.

Great lens for a landscape photographer

Ery good lens. Cover everything fro landscape to street photo. 82 mm filters on a 14 mm lens is great!

Good lens that takes 82 mm filters!

Amazing lens, Sharp, lightweight.  No regrets buying this lens!

Awesome lens

Great landscaping lens.  Also it's perfect for my new venture which is architectural photography.  I'm very happy that I purchased it.

Landscape and Architectural Lens

Awesome Lens! Nice quality, great results at a decent price!

Must have lens!

I'm so impressed with the wide angle abilities of this lens, sharp, clear, fast, quite. It has so many possibilities at f/4 without the need for a flash when combined with my Z6ii. Can't wait to get some fall waterfall photos but the photos I'm sharing were the very first outing with it.

Z-tastic !

It's lightweight and is a good lens to have on the camera when "Walking around". It creates very good "Sun bursts" (Those rays emanating from the sun when when the sun is peeking from behind a tree or rock). I do have a bit of trouble locking/unlocking the lens hood but that might be my fault. Overall I am glad I bought this lens.

Worth Owning

The NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S Lens is an outstanding ultra-wide option for the Nikon Z System! Center sharpness is excellent throughout the aperture range, up to about f/13, after which diffraction has a small effect, as with most lenses. The 14mm coverage is vastly wider than the standard 24mm, and as such, this is a fantastic lens for tight spaces or expansive landscape scenes. Build quality is up to the "S" standard, and the beauty of this over the much more pricey Nikkor Z `4-28 f/2.8 S is that you can use 82mm screw-in filters! Highly recommended!

An Awesome Ultra-Wide option for the Nikon Z Mount!

I got the NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S for landscape photography, and I can say that it is super-sharp in the center, with only slight sharpness fall-off and some vignetting in extreme edges of the image. The overall image quality is superb, and the handling is good as well, despite the need to rotate the zoom ring to enable usage, ala the Nikkor 24-70 f/4 zoom. The 82mm filter thread makes it easy to ues filters like the excellent Hoya NXT Plus Circular Polarizer, and the Hoya UV filter for lens protection, which I recommend. Please see attached image taken using the Polarizing filter, showing a very high level of sharpness and image detail. I highly recommend this NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S and the Hoya filter kit!

The NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S is an Awesome ultra-wide lens that permits easy filter attachment!

Shot a live job at a wedding this weekend with a Z6II. I'm 100% pleased with the performance. I used flas with 25%, but 75% without and I'm really pleased at the outcome. Very little post processing. I shot everything in manual mode. In very tight rooms, it is my now go to lens. Very little lens flare and very little distortion if you carefully frame your subjects.

My wedding go to lens in tight areas

This is my most used lens and primary use is for real estate. I always shoot at f8 for depth of field so the 2.8 lens was not really important in this case also it goes to 30mm which means I almost never have to swap the lens when on sight. also for video this lens is way better than its 2.8 big brother due to the fact it is smaller and lighter and that is always better when using a gimbal.

Awesome Lens

You would think that the Slinger lens case included in the essentials kit would fit the lens.  Unfortunately, the provided lens case doesn't fit the lens purchased.

Lens case in Essentials Kit doesn't fit lens.

Outstanding lens at an outstanding price and service

Outstanding lens

I have extensively used this lens for over two weeks ... The Lens is great in every way!!  I have been shooting Nikon for over 50yrs,, I never understood why someone would use anything but the Nikon lenses...

This lens replaced my Nikkor 14-24 f/2.8. I never shoot a wide lens wide open so the loss of one stop is not an issue for me. The lens is smaller and lighter than my old F mount lens. Plus the ability to zoom to 30mm makes it more useful as well. Takes screw in filters and the optical quality is very good. A bit of distortion as with any lens this wide but correctable in software.

Great value in a very good super wide angle lens

Fantastic wide angle lens.  I'm usually doing landscape so f/2.8 is rare for me (so is f/4).  I usually use this lens at f/5.6 and f/8 and it's really the sweet spot for great image quality for the lens.
If I had one gripe it would be the fact that it needs to extend to work.  But it's a minor complaint and the size and weight benefits with that design are more important to me anyway.

Love it.  Long live the f/4 pro lenses.

Nikon 14-30

This is my primary lens for backpacking, its weight is unbeatable and the IQ is fantastic for such a small package. I carry it on my Z7 on a capture clip and it's very comfortable.

Great lightweight landscape lens

My first NISI purchase.  I bought this CPL for my 14-30 f/4 and 28-70 f/2.8 Z mounts.  No vignetting.  Great color rendition.  Fits secure into the lens filter threads.  I highly recommend this product.  You can be sure that I'll be purchasing additional NISI filters from Adorama in the near future.

NISI CPL--excellent product

Limited use,   but so far I am very pleased with the results

Quality product

Outstanding lens!  Excellent for landscape and real estate

Excellent lems!!!

Love this lens, it is the only one I currently use for underwater photography. Great lens for the price point.  Underwater or shooting landscapes it a solid investment.
