Is the Z 28-400mm Sharp?
The Z 28-400mm is already a hugely popular lens. The first one for sale used at eBay has already been bid to more than the new price.
It’s lightweight, easy to carry and handle and covers a huge zoom range.
Yes, it’s sharp. Like most ultrazooms, most difficult part is staying sharp at the 400mm end.
At 400mm at f/8 it readily enlarges the effects of atmospheric heat shimmer, and almost all my shots made of things on the ground simply show these softening effects, which are no fault of the lens other than its ability to magnify this atmospheric effect enough for us to see it.
Looking up, it’s sharp:
