NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR

I bought this to use with a Z30 attached to a Peak designs capture clip on my backpack strap while ski touring and mountain biking. If purchasing a Z30 (or similar) the cost is so low to bundle in this lens, it's an incredible bargain. I also use a Sigma 56mm f/1.4 lens with the Z30, but this little lens is so good, and so unobtrusive, that I am only using the Sigma when I go out in low light. The image quality is remarkable, especially considering cost and size. The stabilization enables me to shoot stationary subjects hand held at 1/30. This is the perfect travel lens when paired with a smaller Z body. I am very, very impressed.

Cet objectif, ne donne pas la pleine mesure de la Z50. Depuis que j'ai la Z 28mm /F2.8 et la Z 24-70mm F/4, je peux tirer le maximum de ma caméra.
Ce qui joue en sa faveur est son format, pratique pour l'amener partout. Mais c'est tout.

I am really rather surprised by the sharpness and contrast of this little kit lens, all in a very compact package. I am a long time Nikkor user, with the lens lineage that goes back 40 years. I was a little skeptical about the quality of this lens, but after reviewing the shots it has produced, I'm convinced that the Z mount, and the new lens designs, offer superior performance to expensive high end glass from years ago.

While its plastic feel doesn't lend an air of confidence, this lens more than makes up for it by its performance. It's sharp nearly edge to edge wide open. It focuses quickly. And it's quite reasonably priced. It's a wonderful lens for the Z fc, Z 5, and Z 50 owners.

Great overall picture quality with great sharpness and contrast. Great travel lens that is compact and light.

Very user friendly .
I love the VR.
Would recommend to anyone.

One of the best lenses I own. Clear images, light weight great for all around photography. The pancake feature is unique and useful.

Pro: Lightweight; Compact Size; Quiet; VR; Sharp on 16mm; Great for walking around.
Cons: No lenses hood; Slow; A little soft on 50mm.
