Aperçu

Les preuves
Performances
La qualité optique est une excellente surprise pour un zoom à si grande amplitude. Avec un score dans le 94e percentile, il délivre des images bien piquées grâce à ses 19 éléments, dont deux asphériques et un verre ED. Les traitements ARNEO et Nano Crystal Coat font un boulot remarquable pour supprimer les reflets et le flare, même en contre-jour. La distorsion est bien contrôlée, même si, soyons honnêtes, le profil de correction intégré des boîtiers Z fait une partie du travail en coulisses.
La stabilisation VR est un vrai atout au quotidien. Annoncée pour 5 stops, elle vous sauvera la mise en basse lumière, vous permettant de descendre à des vitesses d'obturation étonnamment lentes sans flou de bougé. L'autofocus, en revanche, est plus mitigé. Le Silent Wave Motor est discret, ce qui est parfait pour la vidéo, mais sa rapidité le place dans la moyenne du marché. Pour du sujet statique ou peu mobile, c'est impeccable. Pour de l'action rapide, il montre ses limites.

Face à la concurrence
Face à des concurrents comme le Tamron 18-300mm f/3.5-6.3 Di III-A VC VXD, le Nikon Z 24-200mm rend des points en termes de plage focale pure, mais il prend sa revanche sur la qualité optique et la finition. Le Tamron va plus loin, mais le Nikon est meilleur là où ça compte vraiment : le piqué et le contraste. Comparé à un Sigma Contemporary 16-300mm, le Nikon est bien plus compact et léger, ce qui en fait un meilleur compagnon de voyage. En revanche, si vous avez absolument besoin d'une grande ouverture constante, un zoom pro comme le Canon RF 15-35mm F2.8 L joue dans une autre cour, mais à un prix et un poids bien supérieurs.

Prix
Rapport qualité-prix
Le prix de cet objectif varie de manière assez folle selon les revendeurs, avec un écart allant de 900 $ à plus de 216 000 $, ce qui ressemble clairement à une erreur de listing chez certains vendeurs tiers. En se basant sur le prix le plus bas autour de 900 $, le rapport qualité-prix est excellent. Vous obtenez une qualité optique et une stabilisation de haut vol dans un format incroyablement léger. C'est un investissement malin si vous cherchez à simplifier votre sac photo sans sacrifier la qualité d'image.

Aperçu
Le NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR est un objectif qui coche presque toutes les cases pour un photographe en déplacement. Avec une plage focale allant du grand-angle au téléobjectif, il se classe dans le 97e percentile de notre base de données en matière de polyvalence. La stabilisation d'image est un autre point fort majeur, offrant un gain de 5 stops qui le place parmi les meilleurs de sa catégorie. C'est le genre d'objectif que vous gardez vissé sur votre boîtier du matin au soir, que vous soyez en train de capturer une rue étroite ou un détail architectural lointain.
Questions fréquentes
Q: Est-ce que le Nikon Z 24-200mm est un bon objectif pour voyager ?
Absolument. C'est même son point fort. Avec un score de 86,9/100 dans notre catégorie voyage, il combine une plage focale très polyvalente, une excellente stabilisation et un poids plume de 72g. Vous pouvez photographier des paysages au 24mm et zoomer sur des détails au 200mm sans changer d'objectif.
Q: La stabilisation VR de 5 stops est-elle vraiment efficace ?
Oui, et les chiffres le confirment. Elle se classe dans le 96e percentile de notre base de données, ce qui signifie qu'elle fait partie des meilleures du marché. En pratique, vous gagnerez facilement 4 à 5 vitesses d'obturation, ce qui est idéal pour les intérieurs sombres ou les photos en fin de journée sans trépied.
Q: Puis-je utiliser ce zoom pour faire de la photo animalière ?
C'est possible, mais avec des limites. Notre score pour la photo animalière et de sport est bon (86,7/100), mais l'autofocus est dans la moyenne (55e percentile). Pour des animaux statiques ou peu rapides, le 200mm et la stabilisation feront le job. Pour des oiseaux en vol ou de l'action rapide, un objectif à l'AF plus véloce sera préférable.
À qui ce produit ne convient pas
Passez votre chemin si vous photographiez souvent sous la pluie ou dans des environnements poussiéreux, car cet objectif n'est pas tropicalisé. Les vidéastes exigeants sur l'autofocus continu pourraient aussi être frustrés par la lenteur relative du moteur, qui se situe dans la moyenne basse de notre classement. Enfin, si vous êtes un amateur de portrait avec un besoin de flou d'arrière-plan crémeux, l'ouverture f/6.3 à 200mm et le bokeh moyen (72e percentile) ne vous donneront pas la séparation sujet/arrière-plan d'une optique plus lumineuse.
Verdict
Le NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR est le couteau suisse que tout propriétaire de Nikon Z devrait envisager. Il ne bat aucun record absolu en termes d'ouverture ou de vitesse d'autofocus, mais sa combinaison de qualité optique, de stabilisation et de polyvalence dans un corps aussi léger est difficile à battre. Si vous voulez un seul objectif pour voyager, vous balader en ville ou capturer des moments de famille sans vous encombrer, c'est un choix quasi idéal.
