Versatility is the watchword of the 70-200mm lens: it’s great for everything from action sports and wildlife photography to weddings, events and more besides. Nikon has made some superb examples of the breed over the years, but the latest S-line lens for Z-mount mirrorless cameras is the best yet.
There’s certainly no shortage of hightech glass packed into the Z 70-200mm, with 21 elements arranged in 18 groups, including two aspherical elements, no fewer than six ED (Extra-low Dispersion) elements, a fluorite element and an SR (Short-wavelength Refractive) element.
