Years ago, Nikon had a wonderful lens. It was a Nikon 24-120mm f4. It offered you a massive zoom range and a ton of convenience. No one ever created anything like it. Instead, every other camera manufacturer has focused on the 24-105mm and 24-70mm ideas.
But in truth, a 24-120mm f4 would be a whole lot more useful. So why won't it return? Well, we really wonder if it will. And here's why I think it needs to return, but in a much bigger way. . thephoblographer.com

In many of our camera reviews over the years, we've noticed a trend: small sensor cameras are really starting to suck. A good camera does the job you need. But a good camera is also one that you can use repeatedly yet never loses its intrigue.
The FE 24-50mm f/2. 8 G is designed for Sony Alpha full-frame E-mount mirrorless cameras, but it also works with APS-C sensor cameras (with an effective focal length of 36-75mm due to the 1. 5x crop factor).
The new Laowa 10mm f2. 8 Zero Distortion lens is the latest option coming from the company for photographers. And it's doing something that the Japanese manufacturers haven't been doing: delivering a claim of zero distortion at such a wide angle.
