Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S Lens + Deluxe Accessory Kit

The Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S is an S-Line lens, covering a useful range of focal lengths and is a versatile zoom, spanning wide-angle to portrait-length perspectives. Employs one aspherical ED glass, one ED glass and three aspherical lens elements, achieving outstanding optical performance that maximizes the potential of high-megapixel digital cameras. Sharp resolution is retained even in the peripheral areas of the frame throughout the entire zoom range from the maximum aperture for both still and movie shooting. Constant maximum aperture of f/4 permits shooting using the same aperture throughout the zoom range, enabling photographers to reflect their intentions with exposure control. While maintaining the minimum required size to deliver an extremely high standard of optical performance, this lens provides superior portability and operability. Impressive movie recording performance is realized by intensive consideration even of details such as focus breathing compensation and minimized operational sound. Nano Crystal Coat that effectively reduces ghost and flare is employed to ensure clear, sharp rendering even under backlit conditions. Nikon’s original fluorine coat is applied to the front lens surface, providing high antifouling performance. The newly adopted control ring, to which functions such as focus (M/A), aperture and exposure compensation can be assigned, enables comfortable shooting with its superior operational feel. Lens body is designed carefully considering dust- and drip-resistant performance for enhanced reliability. A stepping motor (STM) is employed for quiet and responsive AF control. Even during high-speed continuous shooting, exposure is stably controlled with the adoption of an electromagnetic diaphragm mechanism.

These filters, made from the finest solid optical glass, are ground and polished to the most practical thinness. In addition, they are heat-treated to avoid any distortion or focal shift, and each filter is subject to strict tests in order to ensure a flawless, even surface, which is essential to a quality filter and exceptional photographs.

Key Features:

• Fits 72mm lenses
• Ideal for protecting your valuable lens from scratches and dust
• UV filter absorbs ultraviolet rays to produce crisp, clear photographs
• Polarizing filter eliminates reflections from non-metallic surfaces, and increases contrast and color saturation
• FLD filter helps balance light in outdoor situations or where fluorescent lights are used

Lens filters are translucent glass placed in front of a camera lens to alter or adjust the light entering the camera and to protect the camera lens. Lens filters improve photographs by giving photographers control over light and allowing them to emphasize the features of a scene that they consider most important. This particular filter kit is a combination of the three essential filters no photographer should be without.

Filters are one of the least expensive accessories you can use to make big changes in the way your pictures look.

• UV Filters
  A UV filter is used to reduce UV rays from entering the lens and striking the film. Modern lenses often have UV protection built into them as well as digital sensors, however, UV filters are commonly used to help protect the surface of the lens from scratches, smudges, dirt and other hazards. 
  
  
• Circular Polarizing Filters 
  No camera bag should be without a polarizing filter, whether you shoot digital, color film, color slide, or black and white. A polarizer is different than most filters in that it is composed of two pieces of glass, mounted independently inside a round frame so that one can be rotated relative to the other. As it is rotated, it increasingly cuts out glare and haze. With an SLR, you can actually observe this change through the viewfinder. Polarizers reduce glare from water, glass, or any non-metallic surface. You can also use a polarizer filter to darken blue skies.
  
  
• FLD Filters
  A FLD filter (fluorescent light correction) provides the perfect solution for obtaining pleasing skin tones and correct color while shooting without a flash under fluorescent lighting. This filter gives true-to-life color rendition by removing the harsh yellow-green cast ordinarily resulting from fluorescent bulbs. When shooting under natural light, a fluorescent filter dramatically increases color saturation of subjects such as sunrises and sunsets.

The perfect way to keep track of your lens caps. A small button tapes onto the front of your lens cap and the elastic loop goes around the barrell of your lens so that your lens cap always remains attached, hanging from the lens. Never lose a lens cap again!
