Nikon Z 14-24mm F2.8S. A First Quick look + Overview of how you can use filters.

[@RicciTalks]

Hey Everyone ! So this 14-24mm lens looks really promising. IF you can tell I'm a little bit confused because I LOVE my 14-30mm. It will come down to me being able to use my 100mm Filters on it and that remains to be seen... Although I know one company that wants to get working on a Holder already ;) fingers crossed. Also I Know you all love sample images I want to hold off and take some really nice images with this lens so I will do a sample image video. I Just haven't had time to go out and shoot some great images with it yet, but I will very soon ! Again thank you all so much for watching !

[@martyseppala3757]

Looking forward to your comparison video, thanks!!

[@jbairdexp]

As a landscape shooter (and big 100 mm filter user) I can't see myself swapping out my 14-30 for the 14-24....not to mention the cost element 😋. However, I am still very interested to see how the image quality differs between the two lenses around f/8 to f/13. Looking forward to your video with a more detailed look. 👍

[@RaymondParkerPhoto]

I wouldn't consider this lens unless NiSi, specifically, comes out with a stepping ring or something that would allow me to use my existing 100mm system with the lens. So, I'm with you on this quandary. I'm also quite happy with the 14-30mm. Not to mention that the 70-200 with teleconverter is more tempting at the moment and I'm trying to convince myself to work that into my budget. I think it's time to start selling F-mount equivalents.

[@adamhprs]

Ricci Talks great video as always👌 it’s the same for me, if they can bring out a filter holder for me Lee 100 system I’m definitely ordering this lens!!

[@jimabels9075]

I feel in love with my 14-30 just like you. I sold off my 150mm filters and I love how small and compact the 14-30 is. If Nikon can make a filter adapter that can allow 100mm slot filters then the might have a winner. They should’ve had that at launch. It’s a rough year though

[@flickrchannyuk4396]

Excellent first look and super useful thoughts on the lens. I'm amazed by how small and light it is for a 14-24 f/2.8. Good job Nikon!

[@patrick.991]

thanks! you are making the best Nikon reviews at the moment on youtube. Lot's of useful information ...

[@madst7521]

The practicality of the 14-30 and the 82mm filter thread was a big part of what got me convinced to go Z. I don't think I'd trade that for a little extra sharpness and a stop of light. Really looking forward to the 50 f/1.2 video. I have high hopes for that lens.

[@RicciTalks]

It’s certainly a tough choice ! But I suppose it’s good to have a choice !

[@joshmcdzz6925]

other reviews show the 14-30 to be even sharper. So the 14-30f4 is the sharpest nikon wide angle lens now.

[@paulburwood8231]

Thats a really interesting video. I've got the 14-24, 70-200 and the Z7 II on order with Wex and am really looking forward to getting my hands on them. As a sideline, I very nearly purchased the 70-200 as a grey import at a few hundred pounds less than GB prices. I decided that a 'proper' warranty and supporting local business was the better option.

[@christroy8047]

Excellent video Ricci! I would love to see a lens/picture quality comparison between the F4 and F2.8S. I've already got quite a collection of Z glass, but am thinking of adding the F2.8 to my collection, or the F4 - one of them will be a Christmas gift to self. Thanks again for the great content - these lenses are amazing. Take care and stay safe - Chris.

[@rlores11]

I’d love to see a direct comparison between this lens and the z 14-30mm f4. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@Illuminationsfromtheattic]

Hadn't realized it had such an interesting lens hood/cap system - I love the idea of being able to put a lens cap over the hood rather than the lens itself. It's just so much more convenient, and I love that Nikon is including all this with the lens. That might explain part of the higher than expected price.

[@Illuminationsfromtheattic]

Regarding filters, I will probably go for rear gel filters over those huge expensive front filters.

[@RicciTalks]

There has been a lot of thought put in to its accessories and it’s great they all come in the box instead of optional extras.

[@Illuminationsfromtheattic]

@@RicciTalks Yes, I would honestly have expected them as pricey accessories - even if I don't use filters I will still want to use that huge lens hood and cap most of the time, but I like having the smaller hood and cap for if I want a more compact kit.

Hi Ricci, looking forward to your in-depth review of 14-24, and also the comparison against 14-30. I am looking for native Z ultra-wide and I am trying to understand what the 14-24 will bring (apart from a wider aperture). Thanks & keep up the good works :)

[@marcodibari5713]

Outstanding preview of this unbelievable lens

[@gbye007]

I think for astro/nightscapes the extra stop will be very useful. And I suspect it will have better corner coma control. I eagerly await your testing in comparison tot he 14-30. In your testing, along with your usual process, please test specular pinpoint highlights at the corners, or just do a night time astro comparison if you are able. Thanks Ricci.

[@RicciTalks]

I’ll always try

[@EvilNeedle90]

i think that the astro photogs go for the 20/1.8 instead

[@gbye007]

@@EvilNeedle90 Sure, that's a nice lens, but it hasn't got a 14mm setting. It depends on how well the coma is corrected on this new lens as to which I might settle on. I also think that with modern sensors f/2.8 is bright enough for astro, as long as the trade off is a zoom lens.

[@Altitude2011]

Hi Ricci, this morning, I have received finally the Nikon Neutral Color NC Filter 112mm for the Nikon Z 14-24 mm f/2.8! I ordered it in December 2020 but it was out of stock for months. I am glad that I have this filter. Accordingly, from now on, I can use my Nikon Z 14-24 mm f/2.8 anywhere, especially in the nature and even under rainy conditions (I like taking pix under the rain), without worrying about the front element of the lens.

Glad you exist and great job on all comparisons. I still don't know how you do it and get the lenses so quick but glad you do. I do wonder how the likes of the Tamron 15-30mm G2 version will compare with its inbuilt stabilisation as it didn't look too good on the new 14-24 on the wide end. Then again like the old nikon 14-24, I don't think you'd walk around with the massive 15-30 tamron :). Nice job once again and look forward to the comparison and the 50mm 1.2.

[@terrywbreedlove]

I haven’t seen any images from this lens yet but Nikons track record with these new Z mount lenses is stellar. I am sure this is a must have lens for landscape/starlight shooters as well as wedding photographers. The ability to use screw on filters is fantastic.

My pre-order just came in I've been using the F Mount version for a long time this one has the best colour I've ever seen out of any Ultra wide lense..... Line are so straight (Best I've ever seen) so far I love working with it and the files, I also have the 14-30 but this one is going to be main work horse I'm surprised how much I like the display on it as well I really like that it tells me the focal length so clearly... Sometimes I would not quite to get it quite right on the other lenses but this one you just know it's right

[@kghareeb]

Thank you Ricci great insight. However, from a landscape/architectural/cityscape the 14-30 f/4 is a dream-come-true lens (compact, light weight, takes filters, and sharp as hell + extra range). So I think the new 14-24 f/2.8 will more useful for photojournalism. By the way, the 20mm f/1.8 s has already found its way to most astro shooters.

[@RicciTalks]

I agree hence why I mention the 14-30 so much it’s the perfect wide for so many people

[@MaciejUrbanowicz]

You focused so much on the filters. I'm pretty sure, that filters manufacturers are designing the adapters at the moment. Just wait a bit for it :). Regarding the f/4 vs f/2.8 - different purposes. I'd use f/4 as a go-to lens and streetphoto. For more demanding/challenging situations - take the f/2.8.

[@balintk.9373]

I am pretty certain that big 3rd party manufacturers like Nisi or Lee gonna make their own filter holder for this beauty so you can use your existing rectangular filters as well. Anyways, it is already a big step up that you have the option to use circular filters. Man, Nikon Z system is getting better and better. Since I am into mostly shooting wildlife I cannot wait for their telephoto lenses like the 100-400. I can barely imagine what a Z 300mm F2.8 prime would do if the F mount version was already near perfection. Exciting times are coming, we gonna get spoiled :)

[@dunnymonster]

Shows lens cap.....pulls out dustbin lid lol 😁 Whilst some will bemoan the filter issue with this lens, those who never use filters like myself who want a superwide fast f2.8 zoom for events will rejoice! As you said, the 14 to 30 f4 is likely more than sufficient for the majority of landscape photogs using filters who likely are stopping the lens down anyway. This completes the f2.8 trinity for event photographers and that's an important market. For those who still want to use their existing filter sets with the new 14 to 24 I've no doubt the main players in this field ( Lee, etc ) will have adapters availible sooner than later. I wouldn't even be surprised if Nikon hadn't already been in touch with many third party manufacturers in advance of launch ( much like cellphone manufacturers pass yet to be officially released external phone specs so protective covers are availible on the day of launch). You've already proved your existing Lee set just needs an appropriate mount ring, it's hardly rocket science for Lee to manufacture such a device and I'm sure they will 😉

[@krisdobbins5286]

[@frabo1000]

Only seeing a brief photo of the filter hood it appears that you could simply cut off the two petals and then be able to screw on an adapter for your square filters. If that is the case it might be worth it to buy an extra good and adapt it.

[@frabo1000]

Should say extra hood at the end. Auto correct keeps changing it. Lol

[@saibhargavamanda1062]

[@seantomlinson3320]

Excellent thank you. To buy someday I'm sure.

[@AMGOSUK]

For me the Nisi aluminium lens hood, a Kase Wolverine 112mm magnetic adapter ring and then the Kase Wolverine 112mm circular filters were the way to go. There is a nisi 150mm and 100mm adapter for this lens, the later allows the switch to be used. The former then allow the v system adapter to be used. While I am largely done with ND GRADS, they are useful but when deep in mountains or valleys or by cliff sides being able to take down, say, 4-stops of highlights to even out the exposure, while slowing down water is a big advantage. So magnetic wolverine CPL, night and various strength NDs is one route. The NISI 150 OR 100 with rectangular or square filters including NDHARD OR NDSOFT edged filters is the bigger to carry alternative. I put both in the car, but tender to only fly with the smaller circular filter system. Always leaving the cheap plastic Nikon hoods unmolested in their original boxes.

[@RichNoons]

Ive never understood why lenses do not have a filter thread on the outside of the lens. That way you could add an attachment and a simple way of adding a further step up to add a filter holder

Do you think filter makers will look to just do a drop in filter for that rear mount instead, since it would make more since vs the massive front built system as far as square filter users ?

[@lcador9]

The 14-30mm at f/4 is not particularly sharp at the edges. Being able to shoot the 14-24mm at f/4 hopefully will produce sharp images across the frame.

[@tofu5275]

lcador9 maybe it's because I mainly use 14-30 for landscape with a tripod at f/8. So to me, edge sharpness is still outstanding. 14-24 f2.8 is truly for professionals that shoot in diverse conditions, but for me who mainly shoot landscape, 14-30 is good enough with that weight and price

[@lcador9]

@@tofu5275 Your right, it depends on your use case. I produce a lot of large prints for gallery sale that were shot at 14mm and above f/10. Good enough just doesn't cut it. I don't want to be forced to shoot at 16mm to get better edges nor to stack images at f/8 or wider. I also shoot wide on the streets and at darker events where f/2.8 and a sharper f/4 just works. Quality does come at a price. Replaced the 14-30 with the 20mm f/1.8 and waited for the 14-24 to arrive. Did love the weight and size of the 14-30.

Terry Breedlove I think B+W are the only ones who currently make such huge screw on filters (besides Nikon themselves, but they are asking almost $800 for theirs). I use the 82mm version on my 14-30 and it is really good. Very good conservation of contrast and almost no tint

I bought the professional NISI 100mlm filter kit for the 14-30. Spent 12 or $1300 on it. I love the idea of the 14 to 24, especially for astro or National parks, but there’s no way I’m buying another filter kit.

I don’t want to buy another filter kit either. Really hoping for a 100mm adaptation.

NiSi just released a holder today :) nisiopticsusa.com/product/nisi-100mm-filter-holder-for-nikon-z-14-24mm-f-2-8-s-no-vignetting/

at this point i'm torn between getting the 14-30 for landscape and maybe the 20 1.8 for astro, or just get the 14-24... if my squared filters work i think I'm going to choose the 14-24. cheaper (or pretty much same price) and lighter than the other 2 combined, but supposedly better quality!

Can't get over the insane pricing on the Z 14-24. Like the AF-S 14-24 wasn't expensive enough :p My guess is that tamron and sigma haven't started making any Z glass yet
