[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 838947, member: 48483"] I don't have personal experience with the Z24-50mm. But in my mind as a stills photographer, my reaction to that lens was that it is basically a useless zoom range. I avoided buying my Z5 as a kit bundle with it and bought a separate body and a used Z24-70mm f/4 instead. Similar money spent. But adjust expectations on the new lenses as they all are using a lot of plastic. And remember the small changes from F lenses like the manual focus ring is not mechanical at all. It is an electronic sensor and the body adjusts the AF motor in response to the input. That eliminates a clutch and extra gearing from the weight. [/QUOTE]
