Nikon Just Announced the NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S II!

The new NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S II is here, and it brings some major updates over the original! In this video, I break down everything you need to know in under a minute — price, weight, filter size, autofocus improvements, and more.

Key differences from the original 24-70 f/2.8 S:

Price: $2,799.95 ($700 more than the current discounted price of the original after rebates)

?? Weight: 675g vs. 805g

Internal zoom design (no barrel extension when zooming)

Filter size: 77mm vs. 82mm

New Silky Swift VCM autofocus motor — 5x faster, 60% better tracking, and whisper quiet

?? Extra L-Fn button + focus limit switch

11-blade aperture for smoother bokeh

?? Improved coatings to reduce flare and ghosting

If you’re considering upgrading your Nikon kit, this is one you’ll want to watch.

What do you think? Is the S II worth the upgrade at $700 more than the current rebate price? Drop your thoughts in the comments!
