I would like to know your opinions of Nikon AF-S FX NIKKOR 24-120mm f/4G ED V
for my D800e for nature/mountain/landscape use and how well it would work with my D7500?
IF but not IZ, it is a good middle of the range in everything.
Not a pro lens yet but with a constant aperture. Well dust and
moisture sealed.
The D800E is a darn good body that you could treat better
with a pro lens. I am not familiar enough with the DX format
to bring anything more than the usual FX to DX considerations.

Adam Gibbs uses this lens a lot. He has now switched to Fuji medium format for landscape stuff but he did just fine with the 24-120. Check him out on youtube.
Though I haven't used it myself but from reviews, I found that the lens is very sharp at all focal lengths. The lens is definitely in the Nikon professional lens class with the typically great build quality. It is a great lens when traveling light.
Reviews are favorable saying its very sharp overall w/ a bit of distortion at wide and telephoto, plus softness on the edges at the end of telephoto range.
Well, where to start? The Nikon 24-120mm f/4G ED V lens just so happens to be a versatile standard zoom lens for Nikon full-frame cameras (figure I should clarify that for any APS-C folks). With a focal length range of 24-120mm, it covers a wide range of shooting scenarios, making it a great all-around lens for general photography.
The f/4 maximum aperture is a good balance between performance and size, allowing you to capture sharp images in low light while still being compact enough to carry with you. The lens also features Nikon's advanced vibration reduction (VR) system, which helps to reduce camera shake and produce sharp images even in low light conditions.
The build quality of the lens is solid (especially when you consider the price of this lens!), with a weather-sealed design that helps to protect against dust and moisture. The autofocus system is fast and accurate, making it a great choice for quick and easy focusing.
Overall, the Nikon AF-S FX NIKKOR 24-120mm f/4G ED V lens is a well-rounded lens that provides a good balance of versatility, performance, and build quality. Whether you're a professional photographer or a hobbyist, it's a great choice for general photography and a wide range of shooting scenarios. Well that was a mouth full, figured I would have a little fun with my thoughts!
