Nikon Z 14-24mm F2.8 S field review
The Nikon Z 14-24mm F2.8 S brings its famed DSLR-era lens to its mirrorless format, in a more compact lightweight formula with an option for (albeit very large 112mm) filters. It's sharp wide open at all focal lengths, and any corner softness is dealt with by stopping down a couple of stops. Autofocus is swift and silent, and aberrations are very well controlled, with only busy bokeh being our primary concern with this lens, optically.
Pros:
- Landscape photographers and videographers who'll utilize the convenient, though large, filter thread for circular polarizer and neutral density filters. Anyone looking for sharp, wide-angle optics.
Cons:
- Portrait photographers looking for the smoothest bokeh
- bright-edged out-of-focus highlights can lead to busier blurred backgrounds.

Nikon Nikkor Z 14-24mm F2.8 S Review
The Nikkor Z 14-24mm F2.8 S is smaller and lighter than similar lenses for other systems, but it has to compete with Nikon's more affordable Z 14-30mm F4 S. The Nikkor Z 14-24mm F2.8 S ($2,399.95) is the second ultra-wide zoom lens for Nikon's full-frame mirrorless system. Like others in the company's premium S line, it's built well, and sealed for use in rough weather. Opticals are sublime, and the lens is pretty small when you consider its angle of view and aperture. It's a good choice if you'll use it in low light, such as for architectural interiors and astrophotography, but many photographers will be perfectly happy with the Nikkor Z 14-30mm F4 S. It doesn't gather as much light wide open, but it has a bit more zoom power and is priced a lot lower, around $1,300.Lightweight for F2.8 The Z 14-24mm is made for Nikon's full-frame mirrorless system. There's not much difference between the rear optics and the sensor, so it's a bit smaller all around than similar lenses for full-frame SLRs. It's still not small, but at 4.9 by 3.5 inches (HD) and 1.4 pounds, you won't have too much trouble finding a place for it in your camera bag. It...
Pros:
- Sharp f/2.8 optics
- Sturdy, all-weather build
- Anti-smudge glass coating
- Supports front and rear filters
Cons:
- 112mm threaded filters are costly

Nikon NIKKOR Z 14-24mm F2.8 S Lens - Brand New review
Although Nikon announced the 45Mp Z7 and 24Mp Z6 at the same time, the Z7 went on sale first. It was accompanied by two Z-mount lenses, the Nikkor Z 24-70mm f/4 S and 35mm f/1.8 S. A few weeks later, they were joined by the Z6 and the Nikkor Z 50mm f/1.8 .
