Hello sir, and thank you for the video! I just got the 24-200 lens together with the Z5 camera. Didn't had much tine to test it but I like very much the photos I took until now. Please tell me, in your opinion, would this lens perform better with the Z7 or other Nikon camera with more megapixels? Would it be a big difference in quality?

@@radupetrupetica with any high resolution camera any lens defects will be more obvious, but only in larger prints. Before you buy a Z7 think carefully about how large you are planning to print your pictures. I’m pretty sure that the 24-200 will work perfectly well with it.

Thanks for a superb and practical review. I have the 24-200 as it came with the camera. Your point re zooming to an equivalent 6ft print says it all. It's easy to hear other reviewers pulling apart and completing microscopic examination of lens performance, but in truth who and when will an average Joe get to benefit or even see the extra minutia improvement for the massive additional cost. As a basic amateur enthusiast I love the one lens, compact and lightness and anything better is probably way outside my skill set and compromises the benefits of traveling with a z camera. Thanks again for saving me the expense of believing I really needed to blow $2500 on a F2.8 zoom or prime. I will invest in a lens to suite landscape shots in the near future but for now and for travels through Europe I will stick with what I have and enjoy the luxury of travelling light and as you say "never having the wrong lens"

Why is it so hard to just take pictures of FLAT CHARTS to test sharpens instead of using freaking 3 dimension brick walls that obviously isn't ideal due to depth of field??? It's ridiculous seeing people pixel peeping on bunch of stupid brick walls that are IMPERFECT BY NATURE I really wish more people would learn from Christopher frost by using STANDARDIZED test charts for pixel peeping sharpness review STOP USING STUPID BRICK WALLS People make fun of those using brick walls to test lens sharpness as if the act of pixel preeping itself is something to be ridiculed but it's actually some people's weird obsession with brick walls that gives pixel peeping the bad rep it has

I have a Helios M44-4 which is cosmetically similar. I did try to reverse the front element, but had real trouble trying to get the retaining ring back on the thread (in fact, I couldn't) So I reversed the rear element instead, and it gives the most amazing bubble bokeh!

I really got caught up with the lith process in the darkroom but haven't been able to figure out a way to do it digitally, at least to the same level I was getting the the darkroom. Now I have hope at last! Your prints, your explanation, your delivery - all fantastic. I appreciate your time and effort to put this out there and I look forward to exploring the rest of your videos. Thanks again!
