Nikon Z 70-180mm f2.8 review
  • Written by

Samples

The following images were taken with the Nikon Z 70-180mm f2.8 lens mounted on a 45MP Nikon Z8 camera. The images are RAW files developed in Lightroom 12.4/CRAW 15.4 from RAW to Adobe Color profile with the built-in lens profile compensating CA and vignetting. Noise-reduction is set to 0, sharpening to 50/0.5/36/10, with no extra tone, color, or saturation adjustment. I only did the occasional exposure compensation in post-processing.

The individual exposure details are stated for each image. All of my high resolution Nikon Z 70-180mm f2.8 sample images are available to download in their original formats for analysis at Flickr. These files are for personal evaluation only and cannot be used in another publication or website without permission.
