Is the Arsenal 2 for Advanced Photographers?
You may remember my 2019 review of the original Arsenal hardware. It was a block box you attached to your DSLR or mirrorless camera and it automated many of the tasks photographers face on a regular basis. The Arsenal sold quite well. While it had some good points that could speed or improve a photographer’s workflow, it left a lot of buyers unhappy and it seemed to wind up on a lot of shelves and in a lot of drawers, rather than in camera bags. Now we’ve got Arsenal 2.
A Review of the Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S Lens
The 24-70mm f/2.8 lens is the workhorse you will find in a ton of photographers’ bags, as it provides a useful zoom range in tandem with a wide maximum aperture.

This great video review takes a look at the lens and the sort of performance and image quality you can expect from it in practice.
