I am looking for a Nikon 24-120 F4 VR.

If you have one that is not getting any use and looking to sell, please let me know.

Thanks,
Matt

Bump for a fantastic lens. I just got one in September and absolutely love it. It's almost always paired to my D750. Yesterday I took off the 24-120mm only because I wanted a slightly wider focal length for the Empty Road Challenge but put it back on as soon as I was done. I also have an older Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 that is an excellent, very sharp copy. I wasn't sure I'd like the Nikon 24-120mm f/4 quite as much, but honestly I do. The fact that the Nikon 24-120mm has VR is great (my Sigma doesn't have any vibration reduction). I can use the Nikon during Worship with slower shutter speeds and not have to deal with missed shots like I was getting with the Sigma.

Good luck in your search. :)

Thanks for the bump Cindy!

I really appreciate it and am glad to hear that you really like this lens!

Thankfully I'm not in dire need for this lens yet, as I need to sell my D7100 and DX lenses to pay for my upgrade to the FF world.

Agreed it's a fantastic lens. Bought it years ago from @BackdoorHippie and haven't regret it once . Almost glued on my D750 unless I need something wider, then it's the 20mm that you used to own.:)

PS. Congrats on the super mod status! :encouragement:

I just wanted to let everyone know that I was able to find a used copy locally and can't wait to shoot with it this weekend.

This will be the first time that I get to take my D750 out!

Glad to hear this! I LOVE my 24-120mm on my D750. It's a fantastic combo. Even though I have a Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 (non-VR version) that is immensely sharp, I haven't gone back to it since getting the 24-120mm. And surprisingly I can handhold this during Worship (ISO 8k) that I couldn't do with the Sigma since the Sigma lacks the OS/VR. And I have no reservations to shoot at f/14 with the Nikon lens either.

Be sure to update your signature to reflect your new combo! ;)
