@rds990 4 жыл бұрын

I never could figure why the 14-24 was an f2.8 lens (and carried subsequent price for that). It's primarily a landscape and special use lens, and in rare cases does it need to be shot wide open. I have never once used mine wide open. I use it for real estate and landscapes....so NEVER was it needed to perform superbly in low light. For low light landscapes (actually for ALL landscapes) it's on a tripod. I don't get it.

@urbandeepsky8445 Жыл бұрын

For astrophotography you may want that aperture a 2.8 gives you. I also do RE photography and agree that f8-9 is more than enough. But for night shooting it’s nice to have that 2.8. Also got a 20mm 1.8 so technically I don’t need 2.8 either lol

as a hint for any one looking at wide angle zooms for Nikon F mount the 10-24 f3.5-4.5 DX lens actually covers the FX sensor down to about 20mm (once the converted to FX sizes), this means that it is more budget friendly, it takes 72mm filters, its light and compact although its not as optically good as the officially compatible lens its handy to know P.S. i assume that the auto focus would still work on brand new cameras i haven't tested it on anything newer than a D800. P.S.S the Auto focus does work on my Nikon F6.

I know this video is old, but just wanted to say, you can remove the corrections automatically applied in camera, IN lightroom. There is a lens correction tool with all the lens data. As you say the Z bodies automatically correct for this lens, others you can turn off corrections in body. But those corrections can be undone in lightroom via the tool, and I'm guessing you can even undue ALL lens corrections automatically via import settings. Databyter

I feel that the 14-30 F4 meets all my primarily landscape and travel photography needs. I do like the end-to-end sharpness of the lens, as well as it’s size and weight. I would think a nightscape or astro photographer would go with the F2.8 lens (old or new). For those occasional times when I do nightscape or astro photography, I carry a prime 20mm F1.8 lens. I expect to trade in my Nikon16-35mm when the new 14-30mm lens is available.

super tuto about LR correction and 14-30 F/4. I first looked the tuto comparing it with new Z F/2.8 and it seemed really bad so here, I am more confident to have something at least beter than the old one everybody was using on D800... You don't mention FTZ which is tedious to use and adds size and weight to the old 14-24 F/2.8,... happy to see you are using Polar pro VND. I was hesitating with the new freewell magnetic kit we see on lot of tutorials now. For 14mm landscapes however, round VND seems not advised and I have read that we need to use Nisi V6 100x100mm or similar.

@mentalman1369 5 жыл бұрын

At 15:24 the concerns of stretching done by auto correction, that’s simply correcting the barrel distortion to make the image more recti-linear - similar to if you wanted to convert a fisheye image to rectilinear (barrel distortion is basically a less severe version of fisheye). And the result of correcting severe barrel or fisheye effect is that closer objects and objects in the peripheries will be stretched. A “perfect” wide angle rectilinear lens with no barrel distortion would cause that degree of stretching too! If you compare the shapes (esp looking at the bricks on the ground) at 11:40, you can see there’s not that much difference between the “uncorrected” 14-24 image and the “corrected” 14-30 image. But I agree, giving photographers the ability to toggle off corrections baked into RAW files is useful, since there may be instances (eg landscapes without obvious straight lines) could benefit from a little extra content in the peripheries

As a long time Nikon photographer, I recently purchased a Z6II and Zfc to get into the mirrorless world. I still use a D750 and own the 14-24 2.8G along with a Lee filter system and several filters for the 14-24 2.8G so I'm heavily invested with this lens. I like the 2.8 aperture for light gathering ability and in some cases blowing out the background. My landscapes are generally shot at f/8 or better so it's very sharp. Will I go with the Z 14-30 f/4?...likely not. Also, there's something wonderful, I dare say magical in the size and weight of the 14-24 2.8. Great review Jared!

I'd go with the f4. You have a full frame body, so low light isn't a huge concern, I'd personally get that lens if I wanted to wide angles and f2.8 for wide angles sounds a bit weird to me. I use wides for landscape and timelapses, so I usually have my aperture very narrow anyways. Plus, its lighter, more compact, should focus a tad faster and overall should be a workhorse! Im NOT a nikon shoooter, just analyzing the concept before watching the video! :D

So once LR auto corrects the lens distortion the 14mm widest field of view is reduced. So Nikon should call this lens a 15 or 16 - 30 focal range perhaps given you loose width due to the crop?

The 14-30mm makes a lot of sense and most people don't need f2.8 for the type of shooting they will be doing with this type of lens. However, I don't like the plasticy build of Nikon's new Z mount lenses. Good video BTW Jared.

@daehxxiD 5 жыл бұрын

Jared, please answer the questions you yourself asked! 1) Does it actually apply corrections in the camera viewfinder? 2) Does it actually deliver 14mm at its widest with the auto corrections applied? By looking at the comparison between the 14-24 and 14-30 at least the 2nd question seems answered: Nikon actually considered the corrections when labeling the lens as 14mm, as you have the same FOV as with the 14-24 (it seems). Probably the 14-30 is actually a wider lens with a physically shorter focal lenght.

No doubt that the auto correction can be useful, but I still strongly feel that it should be an option you can turn on or off in-camera. They can sell slightly inferior lenses but throw autocorrect on it to make it artificially "better" for the consumer, but that's still them selling something less than perfect. I don't think they're doing it with malicious intent, but it would still be nice to have an opt out because you're still loosing some control and bits of the image.

@mentalman1369 5 жыл бұрын

At 11:40 we can see that you are getting a field of view at 14mm on the 14-30 WITH auto lens corrections that matches extremely closely with the 14-24, where you lose a tiny sliver on the left and right but gain a sliver at the top and bottom and also get less barrel distortion. So yes, I’d say you DO get the 14mm wide end that you paid for on this new lens.

Raw means RAW, not stretched and chopped pixels, you'll need an uncorrecting filter to fix the force fed auto correct. The option should always remain with the end user.

The pre-applied correction in Lightroom is really something to think about. If it's cropping in that much, as you've already questioned, is the user really getting 14mm? If I'm paying for a 14mm lens, I want 14mm results. For ultra-wides, we can acknowledge that a 1mm difference is fairly significant. So, I'm glad that you've brought this point to the attention of potential buyers. Great work, Jared!

@e.wintertashlin2903 5 жыл бұрын

Given that the lens corrections are there by default, it's possible that optically the lens is a 13mm or 12mm, producing a 14mm field of view once corrections are applied. That's how Fuji approached things with their lenses that use profile based corrections on otherwise inferior lens designs (such as their f2 lenses vs 1.4) I'd HOPE Nikon went that route, but someone would have to do more research to make a determination about field of view. That said, even if they did build it so that the corrected image is 14mm, you're not getting quite as much use of the sensor and resolution. Though it's probably pretty negligible a difference.

@llpqazz 5 жыл бұрын

Look at the comparison at 14mm with the 2.8, the images have the same FOV. My guess is the lens is wider and they are using the built-in corrections to bring it back to 14mm. Not a bad idea really.

@keithgoreham1463 5 жыл бұрын

I just sold my Tamron 15-30mm F2.8, which optically corrected the distortions better than the Nikon, because I almost never used it. If I wanted to shoot wide now, I’d probably go with a prime lens and save the weight of a zoom. 24-70mm is my sweet spot, as I almost never went wider than 24mm, even on the 15-30mm zoom.

My Sony 24-105mm g for example has a whopping 5.4 stops vignette wide open at 24mm ! the uncorrected corners are literally black . If you want to see just how much a profile can "improve " a mirrorless lens take a look at uncorrected files form the , In my opinion rather ironically named Olympus pro 7-14mm

Is it really important to have F2,8 against F4 in 2019 with new camera ? ISO... level up ! Light ? Down speed of level up ISO.... camera are better on high ISO... more bokeh ? For a 14-30 or 14-24 mm ? I don’t know. But I love this 14-30 F4 Native lens. Sharp !

I've seen other reviews of Z6 and Z7 with image files shot at ISO 25K that look absolutely amazing. I think I would likely choose this 14-30 f/4 for shooting my nature landscapes over the f/2.8 for so many reasons, especially edge to edge and corner sharpness

How about astro photography with the F4?????

I'm old fashioned and LOVE my 14-24 (both of them !). I shoot real estate and custom homes and shoot thousands of images a month. It's a real workin' dog !!

@Jared Polin Adobe has fixed the forced correction BUT ONLY on cameras that were added AFTER the fix. They deemed the Z6 and Z7 too old even though the fix was introduced within 1 year of the Z6 and Z7 being released. One more reason to drop Lightroom...

Hi Jared! Great video, as always! Regarding the collaboration between Nikon and Adobe: maybe change your trademark to: I SHOOT ALMOST RAW ! 😊😊😊😊

@christophmuller3511 2 жыл бұрын

It’s still actual RAW, the correction data is just there in addition to give the developer a hint on how to correct the lens. It’s a profile and not applied to the actual pixel data, otherwise you wouldn’t get the full image in C1.

Jared: "feels...ok...in the hands..." Me: "WTF it should feel spectacular in the hands that lens is 4 times what my camera costs."

Great review man. I think the f4 is almost a clear choice here!

@ipadwong9507 4 жыл бұрын

I like the Z cameras which are relatively much lighter than the F DSLRs, and the Nikkor Z 14-30 f4 S is a good price and weight for traveling and landscape photography.

If I had a Z6/Z7 I would definitely get the new F4, mainly for that sharpness!

Owned the 2.8 for 9 months and the focus ring stoped working. Best Buy couldn’t fix it so they gave me a refund for it 😒 Anywho, looking forward to purchasing the F4. We need that 24-70 2.8/F4 review sir!!!

The D7200 has way better button napping AS well as overall controll. Used the D7200 for a time and loves every second og ut! ONLY problem was shit autofocus inn Live View. Canons LV AF isn't perfekt either, som I'd say D7200 ftw

F2.8 I use it daily, and it's terrific.

@brucecrossan2284 5 жыл бұрын

I'm happy to be corrected. . . but if the bowing is corrected in-lens, it will have the same stretching effect as the in-software correction - the physics are the same?

@ralfjansen9118 5 жыл бұрын

The correction happens in-camera (by software), not in-lens ;-)

@brucecrossan2284 5 жыл бұрын

Ralf Jansen But dosn’t the software apply the same sort of ‘stretching’ that a better optically corrected lens would also apply?
