NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S
Portable, high-performance standard zoom lens, with superb rendering
that can transform every scene into a work of art
Superior optical performance optimized for high-megapixel
digital cameras
Employing one aspherical ED glass, one ED glass and three aspherical lens
elements, outstanding optical performance is realized. Sharp resolution is
retained even in the peripheral areas of the frame throughout the entire
zoom range from the maximum aperture. Minimum focus distance of 0.3 m
across the zoom range, fine point-image reproduction and high tolerance for
backlight with Nano Crystal Coat are also provided, resulting in high image
quality for both stills and movies in diverse scenes.
Standard zoom lens covering 24-70 mm to comply with
diverse scenes
The frequently used, standard focal-length range from wide-angle 24 mm
to medium-telephoto 70 mm can eectively cover a wide variety of scenes
and subjects. In general shooting from snapshots of everyday life to portraits
and landscapes, this lens enables the capture of high-quality images without
changing lenses.
Constant maximum aperture of f/4 throughout the entire
zoom range
The maximum aperture is f/4 at any zoom setting. This enables the use of
high-speed shutter without increasing ISO sensitivity even in comparatively
dark situations. Also, while many zoom lenses change the maximum aperture
according to focal length, this lens permits shooting using the same f/4
aperture throughout the zoom range, enabling photographers to reflect
their intentions with exposure control. In portrait shooting using a medium-
telephoto 70 mm focal length, it is possible to emphasize the subject by softly
blurring the background utilizing natural bokeh characteristics delivered with
f/4 aperture.
