14–24 Nikon Nikkor Z 14-24mm F2.8 S

The Nikon Nikkor Z 14-24mm F2.8 S is a zoom lens for Nikon Z (Full frame) that covers 14-24 mm at f/2.8, weighs 650 g and focuses as close as 0.28 m. Heaviest (650 g) and shortest reach (24 mm) of the 3 full frame Nikon Z zoom lenses in its focal range. Among them, it suits you if you shoot in low light or want a blurrier background, or you want a wider view at the short end. If you carry it all day or travel light, or you want more reach at the long end, each other one that does better on weight, or reach gives up at least one of brightness and width.

Worked out by code, not stated by a source

  • Focal length and widest aperture as the lens's own name states them.
  • Read from the lens name: each maker marks the sensor size a lens covers (Sony FE/E, Canon RF/RF-S, Nikon DX, Tamron Di III/Di III-A, Sigma DG/DC); every Fujifilm X lens is APS-C and every Micro Four Thirds lens is Four Thirds.
  • Read from the lens name: Sony marks optically stabilized lenses OSS, Canon IS, Nikon VR, Fujifilm OIS, Panasonic O.I.S., Tamron VC and Sigma OS; a lens from these makers without the mark has no optical stabilization.
  • Prime or zoom, read from the focal length in the lens name.

  8. Lead for a pick1

Our pick or our take adds up the importance of each real difference, with these importances and thresholds: a gap smaller than its row's threshold is too close to call and counts as the same. They are our editorial choice, not a measurement, the same on every page, and they never read prices, sales or who sells it.
