Resumen
En 30 segundos
Con un rendimiento óptico en el percentil 99, este es el lente más nítido que hemos analizado en su categoría. La estabilización VR es de primer nivel y la construcción es sólida como una roca. El peso de 1430g y un bokeh mediocre son los únicos puntos flacos en un objetivo que, de otro modo, es casi perfecto.

Las pruebas
Rendimiento
En el banco de pruebas, este objetivo es un espectáculo. La nitidez es de las mejores del mercado, ubicándose en el top absoluto. El sistema de estabilización VR te da 3.5 pasos de ventaja, lo que lo coloca como uno de los mejores en ese apartado. El enfoque automático con Silent Wave Motor es sólido, aunque no es el más rápido que hemos cronometrado, quedando en la media del segmento. Donde realmente brilla es en paisaje, con una puntuación de 73.3/100, y en deportes y fauna con un 68.5/100. Eso sí, el bokeh es un punto débil, con un rendimiento en el percentil 28, y su capacidad macro es bastante limitada con un aumento máximo de 0.21x.

Frente a la competencia
Comparado con el Sony G Master SEL70200GM2, el Nikon ofrece una nitidez ligeramente superior, pero el Sony tiene un sistema de enfoque automático más rápido y un bokeh más agradable. Frente al Canon RF 28-70mm f/2.8 IS STM, el Nikon gana en rango de teleobjetivo y calidad de construcción, aunque el Canon es más ligero y versátil para el día a día. El Tamron 18-300mm es una opción mucho más barata y con más rango, pero sacrifica la apertura constante f/2.8 y la nitidez de borde a borde que hace especial al NIKKOR Z.

Precio
Relación calidad-precio
El precio de este lente baila bastante entre tiendas, con una diferencia de $2262 entre la opción más barata y la más cara. Si logras encontrarlo cerca de los $938, es un robo por un rendimiento óptico de este calibre. A $3200, la decisión se vuelve más difícil, pero sigue siendo una inversión a largo plazo para un lente que define el sistema Z. Nuestra recomendación es cazar ofertas, porque la calidad de imagen no cambia con el precio de la etiqueta.

Resumen
El NIKKOR Z 70-200mm f/2.8 VR S se sienta en el percentil 99 en calidad óptica dentro de nuestra base de datos. Eso no es un error tipográfico, es básicamente el mejor rendimiento que hemos visto. Hablamos de una nitidez de borde a borde que te hará olvidar que estás usando un zoom, con 22 elementos en 18 grupos, incluyendo 6 lentes de ED y 2 asféricos. Es un monstruo óptico que pesa 1430g, así que tus brazos lo van a notar después de un día de shooting.
Preguntas frecuentes
Q: ¿Vale la pena este lente para fotografía de retrato?
Depende de tus prioridades. Aunque la nitidez es la mejor del mercado, el bokeh se queda en el percentil 28, lo que significa que el desenfoque del fondo no es tan cremoso como en otros lentes f/2.8. Para retratos, un 85mm f/1.8 te dará un mejor aislamiento del sujeto.
Q: ¿Qué tan buena es la estabilización en condiciones de poca luz?
El sistema VR ofrece 3.5 pasos de estabilización, ubicándose en el percentil 90. En la práctica, esto te permite disparar a 200mm con velocidades de obturación tan bajas como 1/30s y obtener imágenes nítidas, algo impresionante para un lente de este peso.
Q: ¿Es compatible con los cuerpos Nikon Z más recientes como la Z9 o Z8?
Sí, es un lente nativo de la montura Z y funciona a la perfección con todos los cuerpos sin espejo de Nikon, incluyendo la Z9, Z8, Z6III y Zf. De hecho, el enfoque automático y la estabilización se benefician del procesamiento de estos cuerpos más modernos.
Para quién no es adecuado
Si la fotografía de retrato es tu pan de cada día, este lente te va a dejar con ganas de más. Su bokeh en el percentil 28 es un punto débil real, y hay opciones más baratas y ligeras que te darán un desenfoque más agradable. Los fotógrafos de viaje o los que buscan un todo-en-uno ligero también deberían mirar a otro lado, porque cargar 1430g todo el día no es para cualquiera. Y si tu presupuesto es ajustado, el rango de precios de hasta $3200 puede ser un obstáculo insalvable.
Veredicto
Si la calidad de imagen es tu prioridad absoluta y no te importa cargar con un lente pesado, este NIKKOR Z 70-200mm f/2.8 VR S es una compra obligada. Los datos no mienten: su rendimiento óptico está en la cima. Los usuarios lo confirman con una puntuación de 92/100 en sentimiento, destacando una y otra vez su nitidez excepcional y su construcción sólida. Es una herramienta profesional que cumple en todo menos en el peso y el precio.
