  • Type

    Standard Zoom

    The visual they offer is very close to human eyesight and is often referred to as "normal". They provide a natural result with minimal distortions, while also having zoom capability. Their focal distance usually starts from 40-55mm in full frame, 25-40mm in crop frame, and 80-100mm in medium format.

    Wide Angle

    Wide-angle lenses with optics that allow for fitting many elements within the frame with relatively little distortion. Their focal distance is usually 24-35mm for full-frame, 15-25mm for crop frame, and 50-70mm for medium format. They are commonly used in street photography but also in indoor spaces where there is limited distance from the subject. The perspective of wide-angle lenses makes things appear farther apart than they actually are.

  • Mount

    The type of mount that the camera body must have in order for the lens to be fully functional when attached to it.

    2. Some lenses can be used with older mounts from the same manufacturer, sacrificing certain functions (e.g. autofocus), or even with mounts from other manufacturers using an adapter.

  • Item

    Lenses with variable optical (zoom) that remain equally bright (same maximum aperture value) throughout the entire focal distance range they offer. Usually significantly more expensive than their variable aperture counterparts.

    Variable Aperture Zoom

    Lenses with variable optics (zoom) that do not remain equally bright (different maximum aperture value) throughout the entire focal distance they offer. Usually significantly cheaper than their equivalent fixed aperture counterparts.

  • Sensor Type

    Full Frame

    Photographic lenses designed for use on full frame sensor cameras. A full frame lens can also be used on a crop frame sensor camera, but with its focal length adjusted according to the corresponding crop factor.

    For example, a full frame lens with a focal length of 50mm (standard) on a camera body with a crop factor of 1.6 will function with a perspective as if it were an 80mm lens (telephoto).

    The reverse does not work as the optics of a crop frame lens are not sufficient to cover an entire full frame sensor, resulting in the edges of the frame being black (severe vignetting).

  • Maximum Aperture (f)

    Opening the diaphragm determines the amount of light received by the camera and affects the depth of field.
    2. The most open aperture of a lens is called the maximum. The more open the aperture (smaller f-number), the shallower the depth of field.

    I found it on sale during the summer, sealed in its box, so I chose it. I don't think it's worth a thousand euros for a non-S series lens. Around 700 euros is a decent proposal, as it is ideal for an all-around lens for travel. You forget about the hassle with its excellent focal length of 24-200mm. It produces nice, clean images on my Z5. It also has an ideal weight balance on the camera body, without being tiring, and simultaneously provides a nice feel with its compact size without being obtrusive. At night, you are forced to increase the ISO due to its narrow aperture, which starts at 6.3f and goes up from around 80 millimeters. This is one of its downsides, along with the lack of an A-f M-f switch, which is present in the excellent Z 24-120 S f4 lens. Additionally, compared to the aforementioned lens in the S series, the simple 24-200 lens produces slightly more noise (digital grain) in low-light shots, which I also consider reasonable and expected. Since I have both lenses and since many people will surely face the dilemma of which one to choose for travel as a complete option, I believe that the 24-200 lens is more in line with my tastes and desires. Also, since the Z5 has an excellent built-in stabilization system, I can take advantage of it by using extremely low shutter speeds of 1/10, 1/6, 1/3 seconds, while keeping the ISO as low as possible. Okay, it's not a bright lens and it's not suitable for action, but for static subjects, it performs perfectly well, even in low-light conditions, which is a given for daily use. Another drawback is slight vignetting at the telephoto end of 200mm, which is not present in the S lens under any circumstances. In conclusion, it is an ideal lens for travel with impeccable image quality. For demanding users, it doesn't make sense, just like the Z5, which I believe they would have chosen a more expensive model in the series. For the hobbyist traveler who wants exceptional full-frame images, this lens is one that should be considered without any fears in their choice. That's it, I hope I helped future buyers...
