Nikon AF-S FX NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8E ED Vibration Reduction Zoom Lens with Auto Focus for Nikon DSLR Cameras. Customer Reviews: 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars 589 ratings. Sigma does a good job of taking indoor photos. But Nikon produces the natural color more. Nikon is noticeably longer than Sigma when it pulls the 70mm. When it comes to shooting the moving objects both lenses struggle a bit. They keep losing focus. But overall Nikon 24-70mm does a better job than the Sigma 24-70mm. Pros, especially those covering weddings and events, will reach for an 24-70mm F2.8. If you prefer a bit more lens, you can reach for an F4 zoom. Nikon AF-S Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8E ED VR Review 2. Vignetting. Even though the Nikon Z 28-75mm f/2.8 is an f/2.8 lens, it arguably beats the 24-200mm f/4-6.3 in vignetting performance! The vignetting performance of the 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR is pretty suspect, especially at 24mm. Even though the 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR improves dramatically at 35mm and beyond, the ridiculous levels of vignetting at Perhaps interesting to know for other members. I just had my trusty 24-70 repaired after 8 years of hard use. The zoom and focus rings were getting stiffer as many users will recognise (still usable though), the rubber was getting very worn, and during a recent event I tripped on a staircase and dropped the camera + lens where it got a couple of pretty hard knocks. I compared this lens to the nikkors 17-55 2.8, 24-85 3.5-4.5, and 24-50 3.3-4.5, to the Sigma's 24-70 2.8 EX DF and 15-30 3.5-4.5 EX and to the tamron 90mm 2.8 SP macro. The Sigma's are soft at the edges unless heavily stopped down and had less contrast overall than the Nikkor 24-85. zhjIP1z.

The Nikon 16-35mm f/4G VR does quite well at 24mm, but not at the same level of the 24-70mm f/2.8G, which is incredibly sharp in comparison in the center of the frame. When it comes to the corners, however, the Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8G doesn’t do nearly as well thanks to its heavy field curvature. One can obtain better corner results with the 24 Considerably more compact and lightweight than the latest Nikon AF-S 24-70mm lens and at only half the purchase price, it’s a good choice if you don’t need the faster f/2.8 aperture.
