Went through the f4 vs f2.8 a couple of months ago. Decided not to keep the f2.8. It doesn’t afford you significantly more shooting practicality over the f4, it does the same, slightly sharper, slightly more background separation, slightly more shutter speed in the dark. It’s big and bulky, but balanced. Still, it becomes something I don

Weighs over 3lbs. Tripod foot and lens hood included. (Image credit: Future) The Z 70-200mm lens isn’t a small or light lens. Weighing in at over 3lbs, and measuring 8.7 inches from the mount to You can stay up to date with Matts latest work at That said, I’m glad Nikon went this route rather than introducing the 14-24mm f/2.8 first. The 14-30mm f/4 simply has a broader appeal than the upcoming f/2.8 zoom, which will be significantly heavier and more expensive by comparison. NIKON Z 7 + NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S @ 14mm, ISO 200, 1/5, f/16.0 Lens Size and Weight 06/21/2023. 4 Mins read. The Tamron 70-180mm f2.8 Di III VXD Nikon 70-180mm f2.8 being announced today is a brand new lens being made available for the first time for the Nikon Z mount. Nothing The calculator says that the 70-200mm f/2.8 will yield a depth of field of 0.09 feet, while the 70-200mm f/4 will have 0.04 feet. That’s right – at close distances, the 70-200mm f/4G is actually a better lens to use for subject isolation. Now 5 feet is obviously too close, so let’s do slightly more realistic numbers. You asked and so we've answered - we've finally managed to compare the Nikkor Z 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 VR S against the 70-200mm f/2.8 VR S + TC-2.0x We were lo Nikon 70-200mm ƒ/2.8G ED VR II AF-S ~$2,400 This is the big decision many Nikon photographers will be looking to make: spend $1,000 to get an extra stop of light-gathering ability? NIKON Z 7 + NIKKOR Z 28-75mm f/2.8 @ 58mm, ISO 64, 1/20, f/4.0. As for build quality and handling, the 24-70mm f/2.8 is definitely more advanced. The main benefit is that you get more controls on the 24-70mm f/2.8, including a function button and an additional control ring. The 28-75mm f/28 is an extremely sparse lens by comparison.
The Nikkor Z 180-600mm F5.6-6.3 VR is the spiritual successor to Nikon's F-mount 200-500mm F5.6 lens. Its optical formula includes 25 elements in 17 groups, including six ED glass elements to reduce chromatic aberration. All that glass means it's a relatively hefty lens, coming in at 1955g (4.3 lbs), or 2140 (4.7lbs) with the supplied tripod foot.
Both are awesome lenses. I tinkered a lot with the idea to buy a 300mm f/2.8 but then bought the 300mm f/4 PF instead. It's mostly a trade off between: slower AF, slower lens (f/4), very good IQ, much smaller and less weight, cheaper; vs. super fast AF, very fast lens (f/2.8), excellent to awesome IQ, big and heavy, expensive; Choose your poison.

So is the 80-200 f2.8 but that will cost you 3-4x as much. As mentioned above, the 35-105mm Ais is a great lens, very sharp. I sold mine for the 28-105mm AF-D which works as good or better in MF with film. In this video I compare and contrast Nikkor's 70-200 VR f/2.8 and the 70-300 VR f/4.5-5.6. They are both awesome lenses! I compare the general usability, bui 7CVkXx.
