Versatile FX Zoom Range

The AF-S NIKKOR 24-120mm f/4G ED VR covers a broad wide-angle to short-telephoto span suitable for FX, DX and 35 mm film bodies. A constant f/4 maximum aperture maintains consistent exposure across the entire range. This makes it a practical single-lens solution for travel, events and general photography.

Optical Quality and Stabilisation

Seventeen elements in thirteen groups include two ED glass elements and three aspherical elements to control aberrations. Nano Crystal Coat and Super Integrated Coating suppress flare and ghosting for better contrast. VR II image stabilisation compensates for camera shake during handheld shooting. The nine-blade diaphragm produces smooth background rendering.

Build Integration and Handling

The lens mounts on Nikon F cameras and accepts 77 mm screw-on filters. Internal focusing keeps the barrel length constant while the Silent Wave Motor delivers fast, quiet autofocus with full-time manual override. An M/A focus mode switch allows instant switching between auto and manual focus. Minimum focus distance is 1.50 ft for close-up work.

Questions about this item

How do I mount the AF-S NIKKOR 24-120mm f/4G ED VR on my Nikon F-mount body and what step is often missed?

Align the white dot on the lens barrel with the camera mount index, twist clockwise until it clicks, then set the A/M switch to A for autofocus — forgetting the switch leaves the lens in manual focus.

What maintenance will the 77 mm front filter thread and VR II system need over time?

Clean the front element with a blower and microfibre cloth; the VR II mechanism is sealed and requires no user service, but keep the 77 mm thread free of grit to avoid binding when attaching filters.

At what magnification does close-up performance limit detail on this 24-120 mm zoom?

Maximum reproduction ratio is 0.24x at 1.50 ft minimum focus distance, so fine texture smaller than that ratio will not be resolved at the closest working distance.
