Does what it says on the tin, good alround lens and at this price well worth it.
Ever since I purchased my FX camera, I have been looking for a lens with this focal length and speed. I'm putting it through its paces and enjoying the experience. I own several specialty lenses, but I' m finding that this lens stays on the camera more than any of the others.
Heavy but durable and has produced some super clear and detailed pictures! Fills a needed gap in my lense collection.
Consistent Output; Durable; Easily Interchangeable; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Strong Construction
Heavy; NONE
While this may not be the sharpest lens in Nikon's bag. it has performed wonderfully as the standard lens on my D300 and D800, and it will reclaim that position on my D810 following the theft of my D800.
I own D7000. I bought this lens so that it will be a general purpose zoom lens especially during travels.On D7000 the effective focal length is approx. 36-180mm this is not a light weight lens but balances nicely on D7000.
This lens gets an unfair bad rap as not being sharp at the telephoto end. I'm looking at a 20x30 print right now of a Buddha statue head sticking up out of the snow. I was probably 8-10 feet away. I can see individual ice crystals around the statue's neck, 120mm f4, D800E.
Sharp; good VR; fast focusing for an f4 lens; excellent flare control; covers 90% of what most people shoot; very quiet autofocus
Bit of wide angle distortion at wide end; at f4 more DOF than you may wish for; some examples have zoom creep issues when carried facing down; 77mm filters cost a lot; people will disrespect your lens choice - ignore them
very good image quality; autofocus is quick; VRII is excellent making it possible to shoot in low light conditions; fixed f4 aperture
distortion when shooting wide specially at 24mm although correctible
I was torn between the 24-70 f/2.8 and this one. Budget restriction and VR tipped the scale and I went for the 24-120 f/4. And what a good choice it was! I have a (brand new) D800E and the combination is awesome. The 24-120 f/4 actually delivers sharp (very!
When searching for a good walkaround lens to replace my very heavy 24-70 2.8 I was surprised that many lenses are nearly as big and still pretty darn heavy, but the new constant F4 of this 24-120 intrigued me so I grabbed a copy along with the half-the-price 24-85 VR 3.5-4.5 (kit lens) and tried...
VG build; VR modes; some weather sealing; good focal range
Hilariously expensive for slow glass; big and heavy; not the sharpest at the longer end
The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 24-120mm f/4G ED VR ($1,299.95 direct) has long been the standard zoom lens for full-frame Nikon cameras . Only recently has it been joined by a lesser-priced counterpart, the AF-S Nikkor 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED VR .
Pricey; Noticeable distortion
