The editors didn't like
Bigger than 24-70mm f/4
Quite expensive – of course
High vignetting level on full frame and across the whole range of focal lengths to boot
Some problems with spherical aberration in the middle of the focal lengths range
Distortion could have been lower
An impressive list of advantages and a rather shor
Doesn't focus as close as the f/4 lens
Expensive (obviously)
Size and weight
Visible vignette

Pricey
Honestly
Not much
Videographers looking for linear focus response

Doesn't focus as close as the f/4 lens, Expensive (obviously), Size and weight
We'd still recommend the Nikkor 24-70mm f/4 lens for enthusiasts and travel photographers purely for its size and affordability, but for professionals and experts the Nikkor Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S is a no-brainer. It's a top quality professional lens at the le...
Neat design, build quality, Customisable control ring, Constant f/2.8 aperture, Digital display
Bigger than 24-70mm f/4, Quite expensive – of course
This looks set to become the standard ‘pro' lens for Nikon Z 7 owners (Nikon Z 6 users might prefer to stick to the smaller and lighter 24-70mm f/4). First impressions are that its design and build quality are first rate and that its clever customisable c...

The Nikon Z 24-70mm f2.8 S is an expensive lens, clearly bigger and 300g heavier than its smaller sibling, the Z 24-70mm f4.0 S. Is it worth spending the extra and accommodating the heft? And is the new lens the rightful successor to Nikon's professional...

It was only matter of time before Nikon released a new, fast standard zoom to compliment their excellent Z-mount cameras. While theres nothing to stop Nikon users pairing older F-mount zooms like the Nikkor AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8 ED with the Nikon Z 7 and Z...
Abstract: The NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S is a fast, professional standard zoom lens for the Nikon Z system. Solid and robust, it employs Nano Crystal coating and the new Arneo coating to reduce flare and ghosting, while the front and rear elements have a fluorine coa...
Very sharp, Minimal chromatic abberation and distortion, Weather-sealed, LCD focus scale
Custom ring is easy to bump, More expensive than similar F-mount lens
There's no question that the Nikkor Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S is an excellent lens — it's sharp, well designed and an excellent companion to the Z bodies. The question instead is whether those differences are worth the extra expense. For professionals concerned w...

Reasonably compact, Smooth, fast and almost silent AF, Stellar sharpness, even at f/2.8, Great build and weather sealing
Vignetting at wider apertures, Barrel and pincushion distortion, Control ring can't be clicked, Built-in raw profile doesn't correct vignetting
By any measure, the NIKKOR Z 24–70mm f/2.8 S is an impressive lens. Build quality and attention to detail are both excellent, and the added bonus of weather sealing gives you greater confidence to carry on shooting when the weather turns. Handling and ope...
Qualité optique dès la pleine ouverture et à toutes les focales, Bouton de fonction personnalisable, Bonne construction, Fabrication tous temps, Reprise manuelle du point, Distorsions et aberrations bien gérées
Vignetage à f/2,8, Autofocus pas complètement silencieux, Uniquement deux paramètres disponibles pour la troisième bague, Écran Oled dispensable, Bulles du bokeh perfectibles
Contrairement aux objectifs hors normes comme le Canon RF 28-70 mm f/2L USM ou le Panasonic Lumix S Pro 50 mm f/1,4, Nikon développe sa gamme avec des grands classiques. Le Nikkor Z 24-70 mm f/2,8 S en est le digne représentant avec des qualités indéniabl...
