My Nikon 24-120 f/4.0 VR Lens WOW!

I have been testing my Nikon 24-120 f/4.0 VR Lens and all I can say is WOW!!! Really. Just tested it wide open at f4.0 and at 3200 iso and at 1/40th of a second hand held on my Nikon D800 using the 5:4 crop mode and what ever complaints I have heard by some, must be coming from people who have NOT actually used this lens.Focused on the pr of "Spring" Saved at Medium Resolution from RAW to JPEG in PS CS6 so there is compression for this site.

I used to own that lens too and I agree with your feedback. Good background isolation and sharpness throughout including at 120mm. Enjoy your new toy.

I like it too, same way. I do have the three f/2.8 lens which I use often, but I'm not going to carry them around all day. :) So the 24-120 f/4 is my "walk around all day with one lens" lens, and it works really well

I had the old versions and found it quite acceptable. Got some great pics with it. Can only imagine how good the f4 version must be.

My 24-120 is the 3.5-5.6 lens.
I think it got a very bad rap.
Mine has been outstanding.
It is my streetsweeper lens.

I'm happy as I can be with mine. The extra reach over my old 24-85mm is wonderful. Love my trio of f4's and can't imagine really needing the 2.8's for 95% of what I shoot.
