AF-S NIKKOR 24-120mm f/4G ED VR Lens

Arrived as described, can't tell it's not new! Works perfectly.

I originally had the Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8 and in the beginning I loved the lens with its large f/2.8 aperture, quick focusing and sharp image results; if only it had VR; but eventually the honeymoon period came to an end when one day the zoom became gritty and unsmooth in operation and started jamming up. I found out that this was a common issue with the 24-70mm lens and sent it off to Nikon for repair. After the repair the lens was never as good as it was originally, especially with regard to edge sharpness and even in the good times using this the lens I found the maximum zoom of 70mm was a bit on the short side and wished for more reach. In the end I sold my 24-70mm f/2.8 and decided to try the Nikon 24-120mm f/4 VRII lens and I’m glad that I did:- Although the 24-120mm only has a maximum aperture of f/4; VRII more than makes up for it; especially at the telephoto end when the light gets low; enabling one to keep the ISO setting down for maximum quality images. The extra zoom reach to 120mm is really welcome and is great for portraits; it makes this lens the ideal lens for walkabouts; on holiday, weddings etc. and professionals do use this lens. Then there’s the price, one can buy two or three of these for the cost of the new 24-70mm VR lens; which makes the 24-120mm VRII lens excellent value for money. What about the performance? On my copy; autofocus is very good and accurate; sharpness is also very good at all zoom settings and I found that the same is true for edge sharpness at all zoom settings (only slight fall off). As far as geometry distortion and vignetting are concern it’s not a issue if use the camera’s distortion and vignetting control and if one is working with RAW images ensure that you have selected the correct lens profile in Lightroom, or Photoshop. Compared to the 24-70mm f/2.8 when it was at its best, the 24-70mm f/2.8 was marginally better in sharpness and autofocus was a bit faster, but then I’m almost splitting hairs here and one is paying a whole lot more for it. I wish I had bought the 24-120mm f/4 VRII first, instead of the 24-70mm f/2.8; it would have saved me a lot of money. This lens for me doesn't disappoint and if you do buy this lens test it thoroughly as soon as you receive it to make that you have a good copy. For me, the Nikon 24-120mm f/4 VRII is the prefect companion for my D800.

I bought this lens for travel photography so that I could put it on my camera and not worry about taking lots of other lenses around with me. It turned out to be a wonderful little lens that quickly became a firm favourite of mine - it was only until I replaced it with a 24-70 2.8 that I sold it again. The lens delivers crisp sharp images and a wonderful Bokeh at 120mm f/4 with very little fall-off and no sign of aberration. It is wonderfully versatile to the point that I even used it for concert photography because of its fast low-light focus capabilities. It is a wonderful lens that is lighter than the 24-70mm f/2.8 and has greater range. If don't need the extra stop, I would highly recommend it over it's more expensive cousin.

Great lens with a really useful focal range. It's pretty sharp, good enough for Press, PR and Wedding work. Not the fastest focussing lens in the world, but again it's workable. Distortion is very noticeable at wide end but can mostly be corrected in Lightroom or similar programmes. So be aware of it. it's light and feels a little plasticky. Apart from that it's probably the only lens I use for about 75% of my work. Recommended.

I was lucky enough to find one of these in a sale and, as I'd wanted one for a long time, I snapped it up. It arrived quickly, perfectly packed and complete in its original packaging. Obviously, I couldn't wait to try it out and, barely out of the package, it went straight onto my Nikon D750 for a wide angle shot of my kitchen. The image looked so good on the camera that I had to put it onto my 27-in iMac screen—it was a stunning photo, extremely sharp and with no sign of aberrations. Since then I've taken pictures with it at all the interim settings up to 120mm and I'm delighted with it. It's an ideal lens for walking about, provided you accept that it's no lightweight. However, I've been used to carrying around a 28-300mm, and there's little difference in weight. The extra bit of wide-angle performance is useful and I don't need the longer length very often. It's been a good buy and I'd recommend it as an excellent lens that would cover the bulk of requirements for many photographers.

I wanted a quality 'do it all' lens for my Nikon D600 and thats what I got, well nearly. To start with the lens is satisfyingly heavy and feels really well made. All the rings and switches ooze quality just like a Rolls Royce in their peak. With so much glass at the front I got a quality uv filter to protect it. Buying a new filter which has given it's life to protect the lens it is on is always cost effective. I have now had it a few weeks and the images from the D600 with this lens are excellent. When I said in the first paragraph, well nearly, it does not quite do it all. There are times when I need more telephoto power for wildlife etc so will buy a zoom telephoto to go with this excellent lens.This is a lens to keep on your camera 95% of the time meaning you are usually ready for the quick shot instantly and not having to change lenses often means less dust gets into the camera. A win/win situation. This lens is highly recommended.

Good Nikon lenses are not cheap and deciding to replace the 24-120 f3.5-4.5 kit lens that came with my Nikon D700 with an almost identical lens for a big outlay was not easy. However, the lens has really lived up to the reviews and the two lenses are like chalk and cheese. The original lens has a bad reputation but in truth aint as bad as they say depending upon your needs and the body you use it on. If you are serious about your images though then this f4 lens is superb. The improvement in sharpness and clarity and colour edge to edge was markedly different. An excellent travel lens, this functions as my prime and I find I hardly ever switch to a super wide or telephoto.

sharp and fast focus, this lens although not the pro 2.8 series at f4 you still get a great picture and at the 24 120 range it is now my go to lens, I find this better than some prime lens that Iv had, obviously lower priced ones but this is a must for your kit if you can't spend the extra £500+ on the 2.8 it is solid but not too heavy yet the build quality is standard nikon, great as always. the VR with 2 levels of VR is so beneficial you can certainly get an extra stop down or more because of this in low light, even at f4 and not 2.8. A MUST A MUST A MUST!!!!!

I recently purchased the Nikon 24-120mm lens, and it has quickly become my go-to lens for almost every situation. The versatility of the zoom range is fantastic, allowing me to capture everything from wide-angle landscapes to detailed portraits without needing to switch lenses. Pros: Excellent Image Quality: The sharpness and clarity of the photos are outstanding, even at the edges of the frame. Versatile Zoom Range: Perfect for a variety of shooting scenarios, from wide-angle to telephoto. Solid Build: The lens feels sturdy and well-constructed, giving me confidence in its durability. Vibration Reduction: The VR feature is a lifesaver, especially in low-light conditions, helping to reduce camera shake and produce crisp images. Cons: Weight: It's a bit on the heavier side, but that's a small trade-off for the quality and versatility it offers. Price: It's a bit pricey, but you definitely get what you pay for in terms of performance and build quality. Overall, I highly recommend the Nikon 24-120mm lens to anyone looking for a reliable, high-quality lens that can handle a wide range of photography needs. It's a fantastic investment for both amateur and professional photographers alike!

Es un zoom versátil, un "todo-terreno" TT necesario, con una interesante apertura máxima constante a F4. Es la versión actualizada, con todos los adelantos tecnológicos de Nikon: revestimiento frontal a base de nano-cristales, enfoque SWM y estabilizador de segunda generación con la opción de los dos modos habituales. Compensa, según el fabricante, obturar con el equivalente de cuatro pasos más, proporcionando la misma compensación contra las trepidaciones propias del equipo. Enfoca rápido, es nítido, tiene una resolución muy buena, y los defectillos, viñeteo y distorsión, en los extremos -sobretodo en angular- se pueden arreglar fácilmente, desde la propia cámara y/o por supuesto desde un software de postprocesado. He leído algún comentario que lo sitúan en la gama amateur o solo para aficionados, solo por ser el objetivo que Nikon ofrece en su Kit con la D750, discrepo con ese tipo de calificaciones. Creo que Nikon ofrece ese Kit con este objetivo por lo acertado que es, y no por malo. Es cierto que no es el famoso 24-70 F2.8, pero no todo el mundo lo necesita o se lo puede permitir, por calidad-precio este 24-120 está que se sale. En mi caso lo quería para complementar mi óptica fija de 35mm F1.4, y creo que he acertado. Me han sorprendido los resultados que he obtenido. Estoy muy satisfecho con la compra. Al ser un objetivo no especializado es apropiado para fotografía de reportaje, viajes, social, o para cuando no quieras cargar con todo el equipo. ;)

Com um bom range de zoom e nitidez absurda, ela entrega imagens incríveis. Mesmo sendo uma lente tida como escura em virtude de sua abertura f/4, em câmeras com sensor full frame, que permitem subir o ISO sem perdas significativas, ela entrega imagens excelentes.

F１．４，F1.．８、F２．８などの明るさのレンズをよく使っていたので、F4なんて暗い？！と思っていたんですが、昼間撮るのならこっちの方が簡単にきれいに撮れるようです。夜撮るにも3脚をつけなければという制限がかえってきれいな写真を結果として撮れるようです。明るいレンズだとどうしてもレンズ任せになりがちですから。もちろんVRも有り難いです。２４から１２０mmまで撮れますから今はほとんどこれ一本で・・・。
