Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 S for Nikon Z6 and Z7

4 years 11 months ago #642620 by Matt Nguyen
This camera is on the horizon for Nikon this year.  Any takers on where this might be priced at?  I'm wondering if it might be on par with the existing.  The current F mount is priced at $2150 or so, could we see this Z mount 70-200mm f/2.8 there or close to this price?

Um, the f/2.8G ED VRII is prices at $2100. The newer (and arguably superior) f/2.8E is prices at $2800, although on sale right now for a song.

I think you can expect the Z mount version to be north of $2500. If you want a great lens, get the E now while it's on sale.

+1 Easy north of $2500.  I would guess $2900-$2995

Look at the 24-70mm f/2.8 VR - $1900

The 24-70mm f/2.8 Z mount is $2300 


I can't imagine Nikon going over $3000, but it will be close to that line.

So would a f/2.8 Z mount have the same number of glass elements as the f/2.8 F mount?

I don't see a Z mount 70-200 lens yet, so it's kinda hard to guess what it will look like.
