We live in times where even a super zoom lens is impossible to find: the new Nikkor Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 lens started shipping over a month ago and it is still out of stock everywhere (Adorama | B&H | Amazon | WEX | Park Camera | Calumet). Here are the latest reviews of the lens:
→ Taiwan’s Mobil1 reviews the 24-200/4-6.3 VR on a Z7: very sharp for a superzoom, from corner to corner, from wide open, at any zoom range. Also, amazingly stable for handheld video. The Nikon lens seems to be better than the Canon version.
