I am renting a Z7 and this lens over the weekend for some landscape work here in Florida. Will try to post some photos next week.

Also thanks everyone for feeding my GAS. I caved and ordered this lens today!


. You're weak!

. Guilty! Hopefully this keeps my GAS in check until the 70-200/2.8 comes out (probably won't)

Yes, that one is known.

I am pretty sure we will get soon a 85mm f1.2 added to the roadmap (and that one should be one of the easier lenses to design among those released so far), what I don't know is about wider lenses:
- 35mm f1.2?
- 28mm f1.2?

Cheers,
Bernard

Z7 + 24-70mm f2.8 S

This may be the best flare corrected lens I have ever seen...

It is also super sharp from close up to infinity, no visible CA.

An amazing level of performance.

Cheers,
Bernard

Here is an image taken the other day at Racehorse Falls in the North Cascade Mountains of Washington State, using the Nikon Z7 camera and the Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8 S lens.

Amazing picture. It was a mistake clicking on this thread. Now I want this lens but also want 14-30 F4 and can only afford one right now

Those who have owned all Z lenses, do you think that this lens is good enough to replace 24-70 F4, 35/1.8 and 50/1.8?

I own them all but just sold the f4 for the 2.8.

Your question is a bit like comparing a sports car and a family SUV

The 24-70 is an amazing lens and you might not see a huge difference at f4 vs the 35 and 50, but then you buy the 35 and 50 when you need a faster aperture...

On an aside note, I think you'll get more use out of the 24-70/2.8 vs the 14-30, unless your primary use is landscape and architecture

I just got back from a week at Kauai with the Z6 + 24mm f/1.4g, 50mm f/1.8s, and 70-200 VRII. 70-200 got almost no use, but I felt weird not bringing anything longer than 50.

In hindsight, the 24-70 f/2.8S would have been a good single lens solution. If the trip had been 2 weeks later, I might have tried to pick one up before the trip to try out. I'll definitely consider it before the next big trip.

Just received my copy! Like it so much better than the VR counter part. Love the close focus distance.

FYI - used copies have started to pop up sporadically on B&H. Just snagged one with the new Payboo card so no tax
