Nikon has added the “highly versatile” NIKKOR Z 24-105mm f/4-7.1 zoom lens to its range of Nikon Z full-frame lenses.
“With its lightweight build, flexible wide-angle to mid-telephoto reach, and superb close-up performance, this travel-friendly full-frame zoom lens inspires discovery,” Nikon said.
Easy to carry and to handle, it’s “perfect for photographers and content creators who want to explore their creative potential”.
The NIKKOR Z 24-105mm f/4-7.1 is said to make a brilliant travel companion and a great everyday muse.
“Photos or video, the 24-105mm focal-length range allows plenty of space for experimenting with framing and composition, while the smooth, fast autofocus helps to get the best out of every shot,” Nikon revealed.
“Sharp close-up performance encourages new subjects and perspectives: users can capture beautifully balanced detail shots thanks to a short minimum focus distance at both ends of the zoom range and a 0.5x reproduction ratio.
“Lightweight and sealed for comfortable portability, the NIKKOR Z 24-105mm f/4-7.1 is a great walkaround lens: perfect whether capturing the vibe of a destination on a trip away or getting in valuable daily practice.
“It balances beautifully with smaller full-frame Z cameras like the Z5II, creating a compact kit that’s ready to go whenever the creative urge calls.”
Dirk Jasper, product manager at Nikon Europe, added: “With the NIKKOR Z 24-105mm f/4-7.1, we’re taking another step towards making dynamic full-frame photography attainable for even more people.
“If you’re just starting out on your full-frame journey, this versatile, budget-friendly zoom lens delivers the flexibility and the image quality you need to try new ideas and expand your creativity with confidence.”
The key features of the NIKKOR Z 24-105mm f/4-7.1 zoom lens are available below:
Versatile 24-105mm focal-length range: the broad wide-angle to medium-telephoto focal-length range is great for everything from landscapes and cityscapes to interiors, portraits, detail shots, and video.
Lightweight and easy to carry: this full-frame zoom lens weighs just 350 g (approx.). When paired with the Z5II full-frame camera, the complete kit totals only 1050 g (approx.).
Superb close-up performance: a 0.5x reproduction ratio enables close-up shots with nicely balanced background elements. The minimum focus distance is just 0.2 m at 24mm, and 0.28 m at 105mm.
Fast, quiet autofocus: a high-speed stepping motor (STM) powers smooth, whisper-quiet AF. It performs brilliantly with a Z camera’s subject detection, and focusing sounds won’t ruin video footage.
Customisable control ring: for the smooth, silent adjustment of key settings. Easily switch to manual focus, adjust ISO, or make precise aperture adjustments to create a natural shift in brightness when shooting video.
Travel partner: sealing helps keep out dust and drips, for worry-free portability.
New HB-93B bayonet lens hood: available as an optional accessory. Minimises stray light and reduces flare.
Budget-friendly: the NIKKOR Z 24-105mm f/4-7.1 zoom lens will be available solo and in kits with selected camera bodies (details to be found with your local Nikon authorised dealer or on local Nikon pages).
