Of course, it's f/4 vs f/2.8, so that might eliminate it from your consideration. I have the 70-200 f/4 and use it with my D500 and love it. It also plays well with the Nikon 1.4x teleconverter (mine is TC-14E II) to give you a 147-420 f/5.6 zoom, that is if I have done my math correctly.

This is my comparison of the Nikkor Z 24-70mm f/2.8 versus the Nikkor Z 24-120mm f/4. Which of these zoom lenses is for you? I shot them both intensely on my The 24-70 f/4 is a wonderful lens. People have a tendency to dismiss it because it is available as the "kit" lens which traditionally are not that good. In this case, I'm amazed by what we are getting with the Z system. Both of the S lens trounce the F-mount versions and the new f/2.8 is sharper than the f/4 version wide open AND at f/4. For travel and casual, the 24-200 would be fine. The 24-70 f/4 is a bit sharper (especially in the middle of the range) but the 24-200 is probably more versatile. I would say if your budget allows, buy the kit with the 24-200 and buy a second hand (used) 24-70 f/4 (you can get them used for around $400+).
An update to Nikon’s legendary f/2.8 fixed aperture telephoto zoom lens, the AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II captures stunning full-frame images with remarkable speed. Nikon VR (Vibration Reduction) image stabilization provides 3.5 stops* of blur free handheld shooting, assuring dramatically sharper still images and HD video capture.
Why is Nikon AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm F/2.8G ED VR II better than Nikon AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm F/4G ED VR? 30% wider aperture at minimum focal length ? f/2.8 vs f/4.0
In July of this year I owned and shot the following lenses 70-200mm f/2.8VRII, 200-500mm f/5.6VR, 200-400mm f/4VR and the 300mm f/2.8AFS II. The 300mm f/2.8 AFS II has the same optical formula as the VRII, but lack nano-coating, VR and the VR element that moves within the lens. I was heading out for a 9 day photo workshop in British Columbia
That said, I’m glad Nikon went this route rather than introducing the 14-24mm f/2.8 first. The 14-30mm f/4 simply has a broader appeal than the upcoming f/2.8 zoom, which will be significantly heavier and more expensive by comparison. NIKON Z 7 + NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S @ 14mm, ISO 200, 1/5, f/16.0 Lens Size and Weight 80-200 ED vs 70-200 2.8 vr1. Sep 14, 2016. I recently purchased a Nikon 80-200 2.8 ed paired with a nikon d500 to shoot high school football. The picture quality is incredible, its built like a tank and I love it. However the lens seems to back focus and miss focus more than I would like it to causing me to miss some shots.
Tamron 70-180mm F2.8 Di III VC VXD G2; Nikon AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II. Nikon's 200-400m f/4 is an excellent choice, and if its reach isn't quite up to your needs, you can
NIKON D750 + 70-200mm f/2.8 @ ISO 100, 1/200, f/2.8 Distortion. Distortion is controlled quite well on the lens, with the shorter focal lengths having practically no visible distortion. As you zoom in towards 105mm and longer, there is a bit of barrel distortion, with the strongest effect at 200mm.
I see G2 as great travel and walk around package (together with 70-200 f/4 or f/2.8) with above average weather sealing and robustness quality that minimizes necessity to change and carry more lenses during traveling or sudden environmental condition change but still is able to provide high quality optical results.

has a silent focus motor built into the lens. Tamron 70-210mm f/4 Di VC USD. Tamron SP 70-200mm f/2.8 Di VC USD G2. Lenses with built-in focus motor focus faster and more quietly than lenses without a focus motor which rely on the camera's body focus motor. minimum focus distance.

The Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II AF-S Nikkor zoom lens costs around $2400 (as for the time of writing this article) compare to ‘only’ around $1450 for the Nikon 70-200 f/4G ED VR AF-S Nikkor Zoom lens. Almost a $1K difference in order to enjoy a F2.8 aperture. jHFOnT.
