Review Summary

Oh well it was not available when I bought my 24-70. Almost the same size with better rain protection. Figured the 24-200 is too big for my all around on the camera lens even though at 24-120 they are close in Quality. Its a S.

Love this lens. Is a versatile lens that can be used for any occasion, function, vacation and everyday use. Sharp and detailed, and gives you the quality you're looking for. The only negative for me is that it's an f/4, but if you're looking for a excellent quality lens for a wife range of photography, I highly recommend this lens.

This is simply a great lens for landscape photography. Sharp corner to corner. Build quality excellent.

This lens and all the Nikon "S" lens are capable of producing unexplainably sharp images. This lens is well constructed and feels like a professional lens, as it should. My only complaint is the f4 maximum aperture size. Would have been much better with just a slightly faster f-stop, even if only one or one and a half stops more.

I had been hoping that Nikon would issue a 24-105 f/4 like Canon had for their RF system. Then, Nikon comes out with this! Love this lens for all around travel photography. On my old Z6 (original), it is very sharp, even at f/4. And that extra reach to 120 mm is most welcome. Love this lens!

Really nice lens for z mount. Generally sharper, and a bit lighter than the F mount generation. Definitely a keeper.

Nice upgrade to the original 24-120, taking advantage of the Z mount to improve optical performance. It is also somewhat lighter. Nice all around lens.

Absolutely excellent lens for all types of photography. Its range covers most of event session without the need for lens changing. Very fast focusing and sharp at all focal length and aperture. It replaces my Z 24-70 mm/f2.8 and Z24-200 mm lenses which I've used for over a year. Altogether, I've had Z14-30, Z24-120, and Z70-180 lenses for every thing I needed.

My go to travel lens. All S line glass has been incredible and you just can't beat this as a single lens lightweight lens for travel.

This is another example of a superior lens at a bargain price. It performs well over its entire range closely matching the image quality of prime lenses and, yet, way more versatile. The best travel lens for the discerning photographer that wants images beyond what a cell phone provides. Also good for macro type shots as it focuses really close.

I debated for a while between this lens and the Nikkor Z 28 - 75 F 2.8 zoom since I've relied on 'fast' lenses with my Nikon SLRs for decades. My decision to purchase this lens was strongly influenced by reviews from other photographers, coupled with the higher ISO ranges that modern Nikon cameras offer. This broad range renders the one-stop advantage offered by the 2.8 aperture as less of an incentive. I'm enjoying the lens, and look forward to taking advantage of the broad zoom range and constant aperture! I like the compact design and solid build quality of the lens The overall feel of the lens is great, and I'm particularly pleased with the customizable control ring, which I'll likely leave assigned for aperture control.!

Great first lens for the Nikon Z8. Perfect for travel, landscapes, and portraits. This is a cost-effective lens and if you have to have just one lens to take on a trip, this is the one.

Wonderful lens! It lives on my Z7ii. Great detail and sharpness throughout the entire frame, but I do not have the Z 24-70/2.8 to compare it to. Many online reviewers have reported great things about it, and my experience with this lens has reflected that.

I am using the lens mostly for videos of my grandchildren. The zoom range is perfect for that and the quality is excellent. Another great lens by Nikon!

This lens fills a big hole in Nikon's S-mount lineup. The 24-70mm S lens is a fine lens, but the 24-120 S lens is so much more useful with the extra 50mm of reach. Autofocus is fast, quiet, and accurate, and colors look great (all of which is basically true of all S-mount lenses). And sharpness is very good for a lens like this. This lens is much better than the F-mount 24-120mm, which I have and still use on a DSLR body. The S-mount doesn't have vibration reduction like the F-mount lens, but the in-body stabilization in the Z 6 and above bodies compensates very well. This may very well become my most-used lens.

The NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S is a FANTASTIC general purpose lens for a Nikon Z System camera! It is weather-sealed, robust, smooth to zoom, no lens creep when the camera is held vertically, and most important to me, extremely sharp at most apertures! I highly recommend this lens for any FF Nikon Z shooter who desires very high quality images in the 24-120 focal length range!

I love this lens. It is sharp and clear, as well. Like all the S lenses the focus is quick and silent. It has become my main lens for walk around lens. I keep this lens on my Z8 unless I am dealing with lower light and my 24-70 f2.8 S lens. I have been very pleased. I think it

A better lens than the 24-120mm f/4G. Great walking around lens.Very happy with image quality.

Super all purpose lens. The images are sharp and well rendered. The range of focal length is more useful than the 24-70 f4 I got a while back with my z6ii and the images are at least as good. You won't be disappointed with this lens.

I love the 24-120 range but the image quality is the real reason for this lens. The first time I used it I was totally impressed by the tonal latitude and rich colors. The photos looked as if I used strobe to softly light the subjects but it was all natural light. It would be nice if it could keep that same size and weight and be 2.8 but I may be asking for too much - not to mention the price!

I love this lens. Tack sharp and fast. I even got some nice portraits of my dogs in the house with the blinds closed. Love the wide angle and the extra reach. This will be perfect for Yellowstone when larger animals are close to road early in the morning and for landscapes. It has a solid build and could handhold all day long. Adorama shipped it fast as usual! My kit is complete!

This a great one lens only purchase. Sharpness, lightweight, zoom versatility and travel friendly are some of its highlights. It is a top of the line lens and comes in kit combination with camera.

Stellar lens
By MARK P.
Extremely sharp corner to corner. I find it hard to believe that the Z 24-70 2.8S can be any sharper than this lens. If you don't need 2.8 then go with this. It's stellar.
Excellent upgrade
By PETER C.
Before digital, my most used lens was the F version of the 24-120. While I have been enjoying the very good 24-70 S F4 since switching to the Z system, this is a definite upgrade. Superior image quality, useful focal range and very quick focusing. The extra function button and programable ring make this a very practical lens. Has not left my Z7ii. Worth the wait

Technology
Aspherical Lens
A lens with a curved, non-spherical surface. Used to reduce aberrations and enable a more compact lens size. Aspherical lenses minimize coma and other types of lens aberrations, even when used at the widest aperture. They are particularly useful in correcting distortion in wide-angle lenses and help contribute to a lighter, more compact design by reducing the number of standard (spherical) elements necessary. Aspherical lens elements correct these distortions by continuously changing the refractive index from the center of the lens.
Stepping Motor
NIKKOR Z lenses use a stepping motor for fast, accurate, smooth, quiet autofocus with reduced wobbling. This quiet drive system makes the lenses ideal for use when shooting video.
ARNEO Coat
An anti-reflective coating developed by Nikon and used in conjunction with Nano Crystal Coat to further reduce ghost and flare effects caused by incident light entering the lens vertically. This allows for the outstandingly clear capture of images even when a light source is located within the frame.
Nano Crystal Coat
An anti-reflective coating developed by Nikon that virtually eliminates internal lens element reflections across a wide range of wavelengths. Nano Crystal Coat solves ghost effects caused by red light and effectively reduces ghost and flare caused by light entering the lens diagonally.
ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) Glass
An optical glass developed by Nikon that is used with normal optical glass in telephoto lenses to obtain optimum correction of chromatic aberrations.
Aspherical - Extra-low Dispersion Glass Elements
An ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass element that features the characteristics of an Aspheric glass element for a more compact size lens. Like Aspherical lenses, AS-ED lens elements minimize coma and other types of lens aberrations, even when used at the widest aperture by continuously changing the refractive index from the center of the lens. The AS-ED lens elements are optical glass developed by Nikon to obtain optimum correction of chromatic aberrations.
IF Lens
A NIKKOR lens in which only the internal lens group shifts during focusing. Thus, IF NIKKORS do not change in size during AF operation, allowing for compact, lightweight lenses capable of closer focusing distances. These lenses will be designated with the abbreviation IF on the lens barrel.
