The Z 24-50mm gets the job done, and will serve budget-minded Z 5 and Z 6 buyers well. It also a compelling lens for Nikon SLR owners moving to mirrorless. Focus is available to 13.8 inches throughout the range, giving the zoom a workable 1:5.9 reproduction ratio.
Pros
  • Slim, compact design
  • Excellent image quality
  • Wide-angle autofocus
  • Dust and splash protection
  • 5-axis IBIS
