Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S Lens (Nikon Z)

Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S Lens
Premium Constant-Aperture Travel Zoom for Z-Mount Mirrorless Systems
The Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S is a highly versatile, high-performance standard zoom lens designed as an elite, single-lens solution for full-frame FX-format Z-mount mirrorless cameras. Carrying Nikon’s prestigious “S-Line” designation, this lens covers an exceptionally practical range from a wide 24mm perspective down to a compressed 120mm short-telephoto reach. This sweeping baseline handles everything from sprawling landscapes and architecture to intimate portraits and event documentation.

By pairing a continuous f/4 maximum aperture with an advanced optical formula and a synchronized multi-focus drive system, this lens delivers flagship edge-to-edge sharpness and clarity. Housed in a compact, highly portable, and weather-sealed frame, it serves as the ultimate walkaround and travel zoom for demanding hybrid creators.

Elite S-Line Optics & Advanced Ghosting Defiance
Dynamic 24-120mm Walkaround Spectrum: Designed natively for full-frame FX-format mirrorless systems to deliver unmatched framing flexibility on daily assignments. It is also fully compatible with crop-sensor DX camera bodies, where it provides an impressive 36-180mm equivalent telephoto-zoom range.

Constant f/4 Maximum Aperture: Maintains a continuous f/4 opening throughout the entire zoom sweep. This ensures consistent exposure settings and predictable depth-of-field control whether framing wide landscapes or zooming in for tight portraits.

Advanced Aberration Correction Matrix: Features a sophisticated layout incorporating three Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) elements, one specialized aspherical ED component, and three aspherical elements. This array works collectively to eliminate both chromatic and spherical aberrations, ensuring crisp resolution and accurate color rendering across the frame.

Dual Nano Crystal & ARNEO Coating Shield: Treated with Nikon’s top-tier optical coatings to suppress stray illumination. The Nano Crystal Coat targets diagonal incidental light while the ARNEO Coat controls vertical incidental light, working in harmony to eliminate ghosting, reflections, and lens flare in heavily backlit settings.

Dual-Motor Autofocus & Macro-Style Close Focusing
Synchronized Multi-Focus AF System: Incorporates two independent, precisely synchronized AF drive units to move the optical groups. This dual-motor matrix ensures blisteringly fast, hyper-accurate focus acquisition across the entire zoom spectrum.

Whisper-Quiet Pulse/Stepping Motors: Employs smooth, near-silent stepping motors that provide fluid focus transitions. This quiet tracking environment is optimized for both static portrait tracking and professional, jitter-free video capture.

Stationary Internal Focusing (IF) Layout: Only internal glass clusters shift during operation, preserving the ideal center of gravity and maintaining a fixed external barrel length during focus tracking.

Dedicated Tactile Control Interfaces: Outfitted with a dedicated manual focus ring at the rear of the structural barrel for precise manual overrides, alongside a generous minimum focusing distance of just 1.1 feet and a 0.39x maximum magnification ratio for compelling close-up macro captures.

Pro Handling & Weather-Resistant Construction
Programmable Linear Control Ring: Features a customizable control ring that can be mapped via camera menus to smoothly dial in manual focus, lens aperture selections, ISO sensitivity values, or exposure compensation.

Assignable L.Fn Function Button: Outfitted with a physical, assignable lens function button that works in tandem with the camera body’s custom Fn buttons, providing a quick shortcut to toggle focus tracking modes, grid displays, or exposure parameters.

Dust & Moisture-Sealed Chassis: Sealed extensively at moving junctions and the bayonet mount to protect internal electronic elements against rain, dust, and moisture. The front element features a protective fluorine compound coating that actively repels fingerprints, oils, and water drops for effortless field cleaning.

Included Accessories
Nikon Dedicated Lens Hood: Includes the factory petal-type lens hood, engineered to block stray off-axis light from introducing flare while providing physical impact protection to the front glass element.
