Nikon 24-85 “G” VR LENS.

Hello

   I very recently picked up this lens, due to its smaller size and weight than my 24-120 f/4 VR glass. I read many user reviews saying that it was inferior in image quality than the 24-120 lens. And other users thought it to be equal to the 24-120 glass. I am just curious as to what users in this group think of it?

Thank You

Seeing more and more f/4 lenses getting used with image quality looking fantastic.  Now we can thank the camera manufactures for their cameras that don't need the fast glass as they did back in the day.

After owning and using it for awhile now, I can say that it is not as sharp in the edges and corners as the 24-120 f/4 glass. However, it is always sharp in the center and middle of the frames. It does deliver very nice results.
