My reason for buying thisb lens

Because D800/D800E has been released, (actually I bought D800E), I needn to change from my 28-70 f2.8 zoom. but beacuse of its high quality of pictures of D800E, VR ssytem is enevitable.

Nikon 24-120mm f4G VR review

The Nikon 24-120/4.0G VR delivers good overall performance, but unfortunately the FX-corners look like the lens has been designed with only a 12MP FX-sensor in mind: On a 36MP full-frame sensor you need to stop down to f8 to lift FX-corner performance to good levels.
Pros:
  • Good to very good quality in the DX image-circle
  • Image stabilization
  • Weather sealing
  • Quiet AF operation
Cons:
  • Needs stopping down to f8 for good FX-corners
  • Flare and ghosting not well controlled
  • A bit pricey for the performance

Very good walk-about lens

The previous effort by Nikon on this lens was a dud. This lens is noticeably better in all respect. I really like the zoom range of 24-120mm and although f/4 is not as good in low light as f/2.8 24-70mm, it's still a ideal compromise of reach, usability and low light capability.
Pros:
  • usable zoom range
  • acceptable lens sharpness
Cons:
  • Price
  • weight

Great balanced lens

"I have been working with the Sigma 16 - 250mm F/3.5-6.3 lens for the last few years to make things simple. I realized I wanted more control over the f stop, and that the full zoom wasn't used as much as I thought.

Nikon 24-120mm f/4G ED VR AF-S Nikkor review by 123click

I only hope this lens lasts the distance for being compromised with too much plastic but that is no to say I am not impressed with its image quality which is sharp from corner to corner at every aperture at every focal length.
Pros:
  • VR II
  • sharpness
  • great walk around lens
Cons:
  • Too much plastic

Nikon 24-120mm f/4G ED VR AF-S Nikkor

Recently bought a Nikon 24-70mm f / 2.8G IF-ED AF-S. Took off at home, tested and passed back to the store. Heavy enough for a small range of focal lengths. No stabilizer, poor mechanics. Most chromatics and poor bokeh for the declared class lenses.
Pros:
  • Film format
  • Beautiful rich color
  • Large focal range with acceptable quality
  • Good sharpness, small curvature of the image field for zoom
  • Diaphragm 9 rounded petals, good bokeh for zoom
  • Easy, fast and accurate focusing
  • Excellent mechanical quality
Cons:
  • Traditional disadvantages to such a range zoom: - A slight drop on the field at the corners extreme focal lengths at the aperture (disappears when you close diaframy per division)
  • - Noticeable distortion at wide angle

Nikon AF-S 24-120mm f/4G ED-IF VR

Although this is not a head-to-head test, reference has to be made to Nikon's other 24-120mm zoom; the well-established variable-aperture (f/3.5-5.6) model that was reviewed in our January 2011 issue.
Pros:
  • Impressive optical performance
Cons:
  • Bigger
  • heavier and more expensive than the variable-aperture alternative
