A new superzoom for Nikon’s mirrorless Z mount is designed to be a lightweight, all-rounder, reaching from wide angle to super telephoto. The Nikkor Z 28-400mm f/4-8 VR packs a 14.2x range into a compact and lightweight body, weighing just 725g/1.6lb and costing £1399/$1296.95. It offers five stops of built-in optical vibration reduction or 5.5 stops when the lens is attached to a Nikon Z camera with Synchro VR capability. The lens uses Nikon’s fast and quiet stepping motor for AF, with minimum focus distances of just 0.2m/7.8in at 28mm, and 1.2m/47.2in at 400mm. To fend off the elements, the optic is sealed around the mount and comes with a square-shaped lens hood which can be inverted to save space when storing the lens. nikon.co.uk Z MOUNT SUPERZOOM
