Re: 24-120mm f4G vs 24-70mm f2.8G. In reply to Desmond Ong • Jan 2, 2014. 2. For the range 24-70, the 24-70 is generally held to be better; the only difference is the absence of VR and the extra ~200 g weight. If that's the range you want, and you don't mind the absence of VR and the extra weight, then go for that. Why is Nikon AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm F/2.8G ED VR II better than Nikon AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm F/4G ED VR? 30% wider aperture at minimum focal length 120-300mm f/2.8E. 180-400mm f/4E. 300mm f/4E. 400mm f/2.8E, 500mm f/4E, 500mm f/5.6E PF, and 600mm f/4E. All that said, Nikon does not claim weather-proof or water-proof for any of their lenses that I know of, other than the AW lens series for the AW1 camera. As lenses get more and more electronics and motors in them, this can be a bit Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8G ED Lens. B&H # 2819599 MFR # 2164. 1,844 Reviews. Key Features. F-Mount Lens/FX Format.

An excellent alternative to the Nikon 24-70mm lens is the Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 that sells new for $499. It has excellent autofocus performance and image quality. It lacks some of the weather sealing of the Nikon but has been for many years a popular alternative even for pro shooters. The Nikkor 20mm f/1.8G ED has a similar build as the 35mm f/1.8G ED and other recent Nikkor prime lenses, with a hard and textured plastic exterior, a metal mount and a rubber gasket on the lens mount to provide good sealing against dust making its way into the camera. The lens feels solid in hands, definitely no worse than any of the modern 209 product ratings - Nikon AF-S FX NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8G ED Zoom Lens with Auto Focus for Nikon (70) 100%.
