Nikon NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S Lens JMA705DA review
The Nikon Z 14-30mm f4.0 S is a compact ultra-wide angle zoom designed for Nikon’s full-frame Z-series mirrorless cameras. Like the standard f4.0 Z zoom, the Z 14-30mm f4.0 S employs a retracting mechanism to reduce its size when not in use and also features weather-sealing.
Pros:
- Small and light., Good to very good resolution., Takes 82mm filters., No longitudinal color aberrations., Very good resistance against flare, glare, and ghosting., Low vignetting and minimal distortions (through lens profile)., Extensive weather sealing plus fluorine coating against moist and dust.
Cons:
- ‘Only’ f4.0 focal ratio and limited Bokeh., FX-corner at 14mm a bit soft., Both of my copies showed varying degrees of decentering., On both of my copies: DX-corner at 24mm and 30mm less sharp than MTF chart suggests, On my 2nd copy: More focus misses than I had with other Z lenses.
