Overview

The Nikon AF-S 24-120mm f/4G ED VR is a versatile 5x zoom lens designed for Nikon's full-frame (FX) cameras, though it’s also compatible with DX-format cameras, where it provides an equivalent focal length of 36-180mm. With its constant f/4 aperture, Vibration Reduction (VR) system, and Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass elements, this lens is perfect for a variety of shooting conditions including landscapes, portraits, events, and travel photography.

Key Features

• Versatile Zoom Range: With a focal range of 24-120mm, this lens covers wide-angle to short telephoto, making it ideal for everyday shooting situations from landscapes and group shots to portraits and close-ups.

• Constant f/4 Aperture: The lens features a constant maximum aperture of f/4 across the entire zoom range. This allows for consistent exposure when zooming in and out and provides great control over depth of field for isolating subjects with a soft, blurred background.

• Vibration Reduction (VR): Nikon’s VR II image stabilization system provides up to 4 stops of compensation, allowing for handheld shooting at slower shutter speeds, which is especially useful in low-light conditions or when zoomed in to the telephoto end of the range.

• Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) Glass: The lens is equipped with two ED glass elements, reducing chromatic aberrations and enhancing sharpness and color accuracy across the entire image.

• Aspherical Lens Elements: Multiple aspherical lens elements work to minimize spherical aberrations and distortion, improving image sharpness and ensuring a smooth transition from in-focus to out-of-focus areas.

• Nano Crystal Coat: Nikon's Nano Crystal Coat significantly reduces ghosting and flare, providing greater contrast and clarity when shooting in challenging lighting conditions, such as bright sunlight or backlit subjects.

• Silent Wave Motor (SWM): The lens features a Silent Wave Motor (SWM) for fast, accurate, and nearly silent autofocus performance, making it suitable for both photography and video recording. Manual focus override allows for precise focusing adjustments.

• Rounded 9-Blade Diaphragm: The 9-blade rounded aperture design creates pleasing out-of-focus highlights, contributing to smooth and natural-looking bokeh for portrait work and creative photography.

• Weather-Sealed Construction: The lens is designed with weather-sealing to withstand moisture and dust, making it durable and reliable in various outdoor shooting environments.
