Hello everyone, this is Kelvin
. In the last video,
I shared some real experience of using Nikon 24-120mm f4s. In this video, I will compare the
24-70mm f4s and 24-120mm f4s
in detail in different aspects. I
hope you can pass this video. Two videos,
choose the right lens
, let’s
start right away without
further ado The
ends
are about 150mm
and 170mm in length respectively. In terms of
weight , the 24-70mm f4s is about 500 grams and the
24-120mm f4s is about 630 grams.
In my actual use,
the difference between the two is not big. In terms of
filter diameter They are 72mm
and 77mm respectively.
The following is the structure description of the two lenses
and the mtf chart
. In terms of appearance,
both of them basically use the same design language. Both
are Z-mount s line lenses
, which are only 24-120mm. The f4s has a new S logo
and the l-fn custom button
. Neither of them has the anti-shake function
of the lens. The biggest difference between the two is that the
24-70mm f4s needs to twist the lens
before it can be unlocked to 24mm. Yes,
and the 24-120mm f4s can be shot directly without unlocking
. In terms of sharpness,
I used the 24.5 megapixel Z6 II
with the exact same parameters.
In the same place, I
used the 24-70mm f4s and the 24-120mm f4s
in close proximity indoors. The distance
and the outdoor long distance are also
compared after shooting at 200%.
Under the 24mm f4 aperture, the
center sharpness is not much different. The
edge sharpness of 24-120mm f4s is relatively better. It is
really just a little difference.
Center sharpness at f5.6 aperture,
the difference between the two is still not big, the
edge sharpness 24-120mm f4s is relatively better
, the center sharpness at f8 aperture is still difficult to see the difference
, and the edge sharpness
is 24 this time . -70mm f4s looks relatively better
but the difference is really very small
At f11 the
center sharpness 24-120mm f4s has a slight advantage
but the difference is still not noticeable
Edge sharpness 24-70mm f4s looks better
At f16,
both have a certain degree of decline. The
center sharpness of 24-120mm f4s is relatively better,
and the edge sharpness is not much different
. At the 35mm end of f4, the
center sharpness is still 24 . - 120mm f4s performs better
while edge sharpness is relatively better than 24-70mm
f4s
24-120mm f4s continues to perform better at f5.6 while 24-70mm f4s continues to dominate According to the upper hand
, the f8 and f11 continue to maintain the same results. The
24-120mm f4s is still better in the center sharpness, and the
edge sharpness is slightly better at the 24-70mm
f4s . At f16
, it is difficult to see the difference between the two.
Under the aperture,
no matter the center or edge sharpness
, the 24-120mm f4s is still better
. At f5.6 f8 f11 f16, it
is difficult to see the difference between
the two. At the 70mm end, the
center is sharp at f4 f5.6 f8. There is still little difference between the two. The
edge sharpness of 24-120mm f4s is relatively better.
At f11 f16 aperture,
it is
difficult to see the obvious difference whether it is the center or the edge.
Next, because the 24-70mm f4s stops at 70mm
, we will Directly push the 24-120mm f4s to 120mm for testing.
At f4 f5.6, the
center sharpness is still sharp, and the
edge sharpness is relatively poor. At
f8 f11,
both the center and edge sharpness are the best. The excellent level of
f16 aperture is still excellent in all aspects
. When shooting outdoors, the
performance of both lenses
is the same as that of indoor close-up shooting .
I will not repeat it here.
In terms of sharpness, the two lenses are actually shooting. The performance
is excellent in the middle .
Maybe I use a
24.5 million pixel camera,
so in most cases, it is difficult to see the difference
, unless you zoom in
and then carefully compare
the difference,
so you can barely see the difference .
Neither the 24-70mm f4s nor the 24-120mm f4s will let you down. The performance of the
two lenses
is comparable
in terms of sharpness. In terms of purple fringing and dispersion, the performance of the
two lenses is at the wide-angle end and the telephoto end . They are all very good. It proves
once again that Nikon's s line lens technology in terms of lenses and coatings is
really not ordinary.
In terms of background blur and light spots,
I will compare it from the 50mm end, 70mm end and 120mm end
.
At 50mm f4 It can be seen under the aperture
because the 24-120mm f4s has 9 aperture blades
and the 24-70mm f4s has 7 aperture blades, the difference
in the performance of the two tables is not big in terms of light spot,
but if you want to zoom in carefully for comparison
The 24-120mm light spot is relatively rounder and cleaner.
At f4 at the 70mm end,
I personally think that the 24-120mm f4s is relatively more blurry, and the
light spot is relatively rounder.
At 120mm f4,
I personally think this lens The blur effect
is also very satisfactory.
Even if it is an actual outdoor shooting,
if it is an outdoor portrait shot at 120mm f4, it
also has a good blur effect
. You can also
compare and compare with my actual shooting video
in the previous issue. Vignetting Control
Turn off internal vignetting Control The
two lenses
can see obvious vignetting at the 24mm end f4 aperture,
but as the aperture narrows,
there is also a certain degree of improvement.
In terms of distortion control,
I
compare them at the wide-angle end, the middle focal end and the telephoto end. After a while, I
found that they all have good performance.
The closest focusing distance and macro shooting are
24-70mm f4s at all focal lengths. The
closest focusing distance is 30cm, and the
24-120mm f4s is 35cm
. Both of them can be regarded as
quasi- micro at the telephoto end.
Especially the 24-120mm f4s has a magnification of 0.39 times when it is used from a distance lens, so
shooting at the 120mm end
really has a good performance.
In terms of starburst,
because the 24-70mm f4s has 7 aperture blades
, it has 14 stars.
While the 24-120mm f4s has 9 aperture blades
and 18 starbursts, please watch the following clips for
specific performance.
In terms of starburst,
I personally prefer the 24-120mm f4s
in terms of glare and ghost control.
The overall performance of the two is still very close.
At the 70mm end, the
24-70mm f4s looks a little bit better.
In terms of focusing, it uses a single-point focus.
Whether it is 24mm
70mm
or 120mm
, the
focus speed is good. Yes, there is no obvious difference between the two.
Both
are quiet and fast.
In terms of video autofocus,
both perform well.
In terms of breathing effect control,
the performance of the two
lenses
continues the tradition of Nikon Z-mount s-series lenses at various focal lengths. The
performance is excellent
, but the
24-70mm f4s at the wide-angle end is the better
24-120mm f4s, and the 70mm and 120mm ends
have the best performance
. After the comparison and evaluation in various aspects, it
can be seen
that the overall performance of the two lenses They
are all very good. In
many cases, if you don't zoom in and compare carefully,
it is difficult to see the obvious difference.
In my previous video, I have
compared 24-50mm, 24-200mm and 24-70mm .
In the video, the
24-70mm f4s has the best overall performance. If you compare it
with the 24-120mm f4s this time,
there is no doubt that the
24-120mm f4s has the best
overall performance among these 4 lenses, and it is
also relatively higher in price.
At present, the price of the 24-70mm f4s
lens is quite cheap in China.
If you still can't afford the new price, you can
still
find a lot of good quality
lenses in the second-hand market. For friends who don't need a telephoto lens,
24 -70mm f4s is really
a very cost-effective kit
. Friends who have spare
money can also match
a large aperture prime lens such
as
35mm or 50mm or 85mm f1.8s according to their own preferences and needs . For 24-120mm f4s
its on all sides The performance of the surface is really impeccable. The
extra 50mm
is very convenient
for shooting activities
or when shooting travel photos,
whether it is shooting videos or photos. However, because it has just been launched,
it is still out of stock
and needs to increase the price. The phenomenon of purchase
If it is not urgently needed,
I still recommend to wait and see first, wait
for the price to fall back to the original price, and then purchase on demand
in combination with your own shooting subject and demand,
but it is still the same sentence,
whether the final choice is 24-70mm f4s
or 24-120mm f4s
at night Shooting
or shooting in a low-light indoor environment,
I still recommend that you
use a fixed-focus large-aperture lens
or use a flash to shoot
