Nikon NIKKOR Z DX 18-140mm f/3.5-6.3 VR Overview

Compact, lightweight, and versatile, the NIKKOR Z DX 18-140mm f/3.5-6.3 VR, from Nikon, is an all-in-one zoom spanning a wide-angle to telephoto range. Poised to be a single lens solution for travel, walkaround, and everyday shooting, this 27-210mm-equivalent lens is ideal for applications ranging from landscapes to portraiture to distant, fast-moving subjects.
All-in-one zoom is designed for DX-format Nikon Z-mount mirrorless cameras and provides a 27-210mm equivalent focal length range.
Stepping motor delivers impressively smooth, quiet, and fast autofocus performance that is well-suited to both stills and video applications.
Minimum focusing distance of 7.9" at the wide-angle position suits working with close-up subjects.
Vibration Reduction image stabilization minimizes the appearance of camera shake by up to 5 stops for sharper handheld shooting.
Programmable Control Ring is, by default, set to adjust manual focus but can also be used to control aperture or exposure compensation.

Does this lens perform macro close-ups?
Asked by: Phil
No, the Nikon NIKKOR Z DX 18-140mm f/3.5-6.3 VR Lens would not offer macro capability. That being said, the Nikon NIKKOR Z MC 50mm f/2.8 Macro Lens, BH # NIZ5028 would offer this capability. https://bhpho.to/3ZRpTV7

So this lens will only be compatible with the Z50 and Zfc, and not with other Z cameras?
Asked by: Robert
Using this lens on a full frame body will crop in the sensor, and effectively lower the resolution.

Can you compare in specs and image quality to the older (2019) Nikkor Z DX 50-250mm F/4.5 VR?
Asked by: Catherine
The difference is only the angle of view. The 18-140 is wider while the 50-250 has a narrower angle of view. Many photographers will use both lenses depending on the situation. For items far away like wildlife the 50-250 is better. For landscape photos, or photos of a group of people in a small room for instance the 18-140 is better.

Is there any reason to get the more expensive full-frame superzoom for my z7ii rather than this?
Asked by: Andy
Nikon NIKKOR Z DX 18-140mm f/3.5-6.3 VR Lens is a crop lens. Using that lens on the Z7ii will crop the image by 1.5 times. And you loose a lot of resolution.

Does this have VR that works with the Z50 mirrorless which I gather does not have in-camera VR? Is it a 4-5 stop VR?
Asked by: William
According to Nikons announcement: The lens also realizes high vibration reduction (VR) performance with an effect equivalent to a 5.0-stop increase in shutter speed for more stable and sharp photos even during telephoto shooting or in low-light situations where vibration is likely to occur. This value is achieved when attached to a camera with APS-C size sensor, with the cameras VR function set to NORMAL, and when zoom is set to the maximum telephoto position.
