Nikon Inc AF-S FX NIKKOR 24-120mm f/4G ED VR Zoom Lens camera kit

Compact 5× FX Zoom Lens

This Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24-120mm f/4G ED VR kit covers wide-angle to short telephoto with a constant f/4 aperture. Vibration Reduction II enables handheld shooting at slower shutter speeds. Two ED and three aspherical elements reduce chromatic aberration. The Silent Wave Motor provides fast, quiet autofocus with instant manual override via the M/A switch.

Suits FX and DX Shooters Wanting One Walk-Around

Ideal for photographers who need a single lens for landscapes, portraits, weddings and distant subjects on Nikon DSLRs. The constant aperture maintains exposure across the zoom range. Not for buyers who need wider than 24 mm, longer than 120 mm, or a faster maximum aperture for low-light shallow depth of field. Macro shooters requiring higher than 0.24× reproduction ratio should look elsewhere.

Constant f/4 Aperture Through 24-120 mm Range

The fixed f/4 maximum aperture is the specification that decides fit. It holds exposure settings steady from wide to telephoto, unlike variable-aperture zooms that lose light when extended. This matters for consistent video exposure and flash work. If your workflow demands f/2.8 or wider, this lens will not meet that need.
