A good wide angle zoom lens can be invaluable for a wide range of applications ranging from events coverage and landscapes to astrophotography, and one of their most important properties is their sharpness. The excellent video review compares three options for Nikon shooters: the AF-S NIKKOR 14-24mm f/2.8G ED, NIKKOR Z 14-24mm f/2.8 S, and NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S lenses.
Coming to you from Milky Way Mike, this great video review compares the sharpness of the AF-S NIKKOR 14-24mm f/2.8G ED, NIKKOR Z 14-24mm f/2.8 S, and NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S lenses. The 14-24mm f/2.8G was one of Nikon’s most well-known and beloved lenses for a long time, but with the introduction of the Z mount, we have seen some progress in lens performance. Beyond sharpness, wide angle f/2.8 zoom lenses are neither cheap nor compact, which is readily apparent when you see just how small the 14-30mm f/4 appears compared to the two f/2.8 lenses. On top of that, it is substantially cheaper, something worth considering when picking between the lot. Check out the video above for the full rundown on all three lenses.
