Reviewers from cameralabs have found:
As you pull focus, you’ll notice some focus breathing: the image becomes a little more magnified at closer focusing distances. When I adjusted the focus from infinity to 2.04m on the new Nikon at 200mm focal length, I measured a 1% increase in magnification. The Z 24-200mm f4.0-6.3 VR did keep its focus, but not quite perfect: the lens became gradually less sharp and then suddenly snapped back into perfect focus.
Pros
  • Sharpness at 200mm focal length
  • 4.5 stops of stabilization
  • Fast autofocus
Cons
  • Focus breathing is noticeable at close focusing distances

Reviewers from pcmag have found:
The Nikkor Z 24-200mm F4-6.3 VR has the longest zoom range, while keeping dimensions comfortable for travel, hikes, and any other time where you don't want to fuss with changing lenses. At 24mm, it captures photos with very good resolution wide open, and is in the excellent range when stopped down to f/5.6. In-camera corrections remove barrel and pincushion distortion from JPGs.
Pros
  • Fast autofocus
  • Excellent image quality
  • Excellent zoom range
Cons
  • Lack of manual focus
  • Limited zoom range
