The Nikon 24-85 Lens is by far the most used lens in my bag. I travel so much, this lens is perfect. Not only is this lens light and compact it also has a great rage. I can shoot landscapes, portraits and just about anything with this beauty. The best part about it, it is very affordable for any photographer out there. Especially for a full frame lens.
NIKON 24-85 LENS REVIEW
In this Nikon 24-85 lens review, we will cover what this lens is good for and who this lens is for and most importantly you will see the quality of the images. Furthermore, all the images shown in this page have been shot with the Nikon 24-85mm wide angle lens.
This is a great all-around lens, it rarely leaves my camera, in fact, most of the images of my Miami Tours are shot with this lens. Why do I love it so much, I mean it is only a kit lens right?!
Let me tell you all about it, for starters, it is a nice compact lens. The Nikon D850 can be a bit bulky and heavy, especially when using a massive lense. The 24-85mm lens is light and compact. Making my set up a nice travel one.
I take a lot of 2 to 3-minute exposures. This is a great lens to use with my 10 Stop ND Filter and take some incredible long exposures. In fact, all my long exposure images shot on bulb mode are shot with this particular lens.
The NIKON 24-85mm F/3.5-4.5G ED VR AF-S Nikkor Lens is a full frame lens, however, it will work with your crop sensor camera. It comes in at just under $500 and it is a great all around lens. If you are wanting a new lens with great range that won’t break the bank, this is it.
WHO IS THIS LENS GOOD FOR?
The Nikon 24-85 is for anyone looking for an affordable lens that is built well, sharp, light and priced right.
PROS
This lens is light, it is very affordable, and it is very sharp. It is also weather sealed so you can shoot in any kind of crazy situation.
CONS
This particular lens is 3.5 to 5.6 so it is not a very fast lens. In fact, it is not very good in low light handheld situations.
CONCLUSION
This lens is a great lens for those who do not want to spend a lot of cash. It’s actually a kit lens that comes with most Nikon full frame cameras. It’s a good size lens, its sharp and it gets the job done. It is not a 2.8 lens however when in a pinch this lens will do the trick.
When it comes to lenses there is always a favorite in any photographer’s camera bag. For me, it is no different and it is one lens and one lens only. It is the Nikon 14-24mm wide-angle lens.
Nikon 14-24 Lens Review
In this Nikon 14-24 lens review, we will cover what this lens is good for and who this lens is for. Furthermore, all the images shown on this page have been shot with the Nikon 14-24mm wide-angle lens.
I have been shooting with this lens for the better part of 8 years, and to this day it is still my favorite lens. I have shot insane landscapes with it, weddings, concerts, street photography and just about everything you can possibly imagine.
The lens is massive, it’s a big lens and it is heavy, however, when you start taking photos, you forget about the size and the wight. The Nikor 14-24 mm 2.8 lens is a very sharp lens and being a 2.8 it is a very fast lens. In low light situations, it is perfect, especially in concerts or doing any type of music photography.
If you are looking for a great all-around lens, this is NOT it. This lens is very specific to mainly landscape photographers, however, it is good in all kinds of situations. This is the one lens that never leaves my bag. I mainly use it for my landscapes however you can catch me with it just about any time.
Instead of giving you all the specs and all the mumbo jumbo, I am posting some photos I have shot with this lens.
Who is this lens good for?
This lens is good for anyone interested in or already doing landscape photography. It is also good for real estate or architectural photography and of course if you shoot music photography is a must-have.
Pros
The Nikon 14-24 mm Lens is sharp, it is also very fast with a low F-stop of 2.8. It is extremely wide so you can get those incredible ultra-wide shots. This is an FX full-frame lens, however, it will work with a DX camera.
Cons
This lens is big, bulky and heavy. If you like to pack light, forget about it. This lens weighs more than your camera body.
Conclusion
This is an incredible lens, great for any serious photographer out there. I never leave my house without it, whether it’s for work or for fun.
Taking photos is the funnest thing ever. It gives me the excuse to go out and do something fun. I shot this girls a couple days ago and let me tell you we had a blast. What started off as an idea ended up begin the funnest part of the day. I did manage to break my camera but it is on its way to get fixed. The murals you see are from Amanda Valdez and Diana Contreras, I’m not sure about the other ones.
