Nikon’s mirrorless S series lenses are the reason to choose the Z system in the first place — they are super sharp lenses that create lovely results. But those lenses are expensive — can one that’s half the cost still produce great shots? That’s the question to answer for the Nikon Z 17-28mm f2.8. The lens — which isn’t part of the high-end S series — is just as bright but a little less wide than the 14-24mm f2.8 S. But, the 17-28mm costs just $1,200 compared to the wider lenses’ $2,300.
