Nikon Z 24-70Mm F/2.8 S Ii Lens

Improving an icon, the NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S II is Nikon's latest iteration of the workhorse standard zoom used by professional photographers to cover a wide array of subject types in a variety of working scenarios. This version II Z-mount lens is the world's first 24-70mm f/2.8 to feature an internal zoom design, which contributes to upgraded weather resistance, faster AF performance, and a 16% reduction in weight compared to the previous generation.

Unique among other 24-70mm f/2.8s, this lens features an internal zoom design, along with an internal focusing design, that maintains the overall length during use. This reliable and comfortable design has several benefits for photographers:- Internal design contributes to a 16% (4.5 oz) savings in weight and is also about 0.5" shorter compared to the previous generation lens when fully extended. - The streamlined design also contributes to improved dust and moisture resistance; with fewer moving pieces on the exterior of the lens, it offers more reliable performance in tough conditions. Benefitting video shooters, the internal design also greatly reduces any shifts in center of gravity by 30%, making it significantly easier to use when shooting with a gimbal. In addition to streamlining the zoom design, version II of this lens also has an improved optical formula that sheds three elements while still improving resolution and image quality. Nikon's Meso Amorphous Coat offers the greatest anti-reflective performance from a NIKKOR lens and outperforms the Nano Crystal Coat in regard to diagonal incident light and matches the performance of the ARNEO Coat for vertical incident light. Making its debut in a zoom lens, the Silky Swift Voice Coil Motor (VCM) uses magnets instead of gears to move the focusing groups at higher initials speeds and with greater accuracy and smoothness. A guide bar is also employed, which helps reduce focusing vibrations for greater continuous focusing speeds. Built for professional use in virtually any situation, the 24-70mm f/2.8 S II is especially durable and reliable even with its emphasis on a smaller, lighter weight design that makes it easier to use over the course of an entire day. {Key Features} - Full-Frame | f/2.8 to f/22 - Versatile, Fast Standard Zoom - First Internal Zoom 24-70mm f/2.8 - 16% Lighter + Upgraded Weather-Sealing - Silky Swift VCM Multi-Focus AF System - Two ED and Three Aspherical Elements - Meso Amorphous and ARNEO Coatings - Control Ring with Click/De-Click Switch - Dual L-Fn Buttons, Focus Limiter Switch - Rounded 11-Blade Diaphragm
