As always, I really appreciate you watching and subscribing, thank you 🙏 📸
Thank you for the video and your honest review. Most reviewers would bash the lens for softness wide open however while you talked about it you also showed the amazing photographs you were able to take. This proves that it is not necessarily the equipment but the eye and expertise behind the viewfinder that creates great shots. Nice job Adrian!!
Thanks for watching and for the kind comment Leo. Much appreciated. There's always work arounds for things. This lens has been a reliable companion over the years. Hope you have a great weekend, cheers 📸🙏
I have the lens. My first FX lens. Ignore the naysayers, it is a superb piece of glass.
What a great review! Sharp, to the point and some stunning examples of shots you've taken with it. The second in the reel of shots looks like another planet. Entertaining to watch.
Thanks a lot for watching. Glad you enjoyed the vid, cheers 🙏
HI Adrian for an F4 aperture lens shots were unbelievable WOW, That for sure makes all the difference when it come to price. Loved all the pictures my friend.
Thank you so much for watching. It has been a great lens on my travels. I have had so much fun using it in different situations. Hope you have an awesome weekend, take care 📸🙏
Great review Adrian love my 16-35mm fantastic lens. live those amazing photos.😮😊😮😊
Thanks for watching Andy - yeah it’s a great lens. Have a great week 👍🙏
Awesome review Adrian and the shots mate😍😍😍, especially those you took in Iceland & Japan, rippers! Cheers
Cheers Peter thanks for watching. Japan was fun especially during cherry blossom season. Have an awesome weekend mate 👍🙏
My very first FX lens. Love it bits. Superb performer. Superb images.
Thanks for watching
Great review Adrian. 16-35mm is definitely my go to lens as well. Wouldn't leave home without it. You've caught some amazing images over the years with it,. especially some of those shots from Iceland! Wow! And the one of Mt Fuji was absolutely amazing as well! Definitely got your money's worth over the past 5 years! And SO CLOSE to 10K subs! Any day now! Well deserved, the sky is the limit mate! Hope you are doing well, have a wonderful weekend!
Hi Paul - thanks heaps for watching mate. That lens has been through the ringer, but it still performed so well. I was going to contact you to see if you were ok, cause you hadn't posted for a while. Glad to know you're still here. Haha, Kristy and I were taking bets on the 10K sub date. Looks like she's going to win with her estimated date of May 10th and I have to buy her dinner. Couldn't have done it without her support though, so I'm glad to lose this bet. Have a great week my friend, cheers 🙏
@@adrianalfordphotography haha take her somewhere good,.I'm sure she has put up with a lot because of the YT channel. 😂
All is fine here. Just taking a bit of a break. Was paying too much attention to the analytics and getting frustrated. That's not why I ever started a channel. But I'll be back when I have something interesting and exciting to show. And of course I will keep watching and commenting here in the channels that inspire me!
Hi Adrian, as you know I'm not a Nikon user but I really enjoyed the gallery of images taken with this lens. Not to mention the B-Roll footage from the Quiraing👍 Have a great week mate and congratulations on hitting the 10,000 mark!
Thanks for watching Scott. It has been a great lens. Glad you enjoyed the video. 10k, yeah unbelievable, thanks for all your support mate. Have an amazing week cheers 🍻 👍🙏
Adrian, another great video. I also have the Nikon 16-35mm lens and use it with my Nikon 7II for landscape photos. I traded in most of my f glass when I went mirrorless but could not let go of this one lens. I get great joy from the photos I get with it. I look forward to your video comparing the 16-35mm with the Z14-30mm.
Many thanks for watching Gary. Have an awesome day 👍🙏
Thanks for sharing. I bought my AF-S16-35f4G in 2014 and brought it with my D800E and D850 for every trip. Over 70% of my landscape photos were taken by this lens and its performance is superb. I used to use FE16-35f2.8 with EOS5DMkII before I change to Nikon system. I would say the Nikkor is much sharper than the older FE lens.
Thanks for watching. Agreed, it is a very good lens. Enjoy your day 📸🙏
Great video and the images were amazing! I was able to pick up a pristine version of this lens used for half the price of new 6 months ago. I use it with my Z6. It may be adapted but I love using this lens. No issues whatsoever. The IBIS of the Z6 makes it even easier to hand hold if necessary. At more than double the price I can't see upgrading to the Z version. I plan to use the savings and get the Z 105mm macro.
Thanks for watching Ian. Good to hear the lens works well on the Z6. I’ll be reviewing that Z 105mm macro lens soon on my channel. Enjoy your weekend 👍🙏
Love your videos Adrian. I also use my 16-35 with great results!
Thanks for watching Chris, much appreciated. It's a great lens indeed for the price. Like your profile pic, looks like Lake Como in Italy? 🙏
@@adrianalfordphotography Hi Adrian, yes 100% correct, Lake Como from our European holiday in 2014, seems like decades ago now. I was shooting with my D700 & 24-70 Nikon f2.8, back then. Still love my 24-70 but have gone to the much loved D850.
Adrian....love your videos and of course your photography...you have been instrumental in my pursuit of fine images...and in using the tools at your disposal to their full advantage...cannot thank you enough.
Thank you for watching John. Really appreciate your kind comment. You inspire me to keep making more content for people who appreciate it. Have a great day 📸🙏
That lens is a winner. Well, in the hands of someone who can properly deploy it, such as yourself. Those images were stunning BTW. I just couldn’t let that slip by without comment. 😉👍📸
Thank you David, appreciate you watching. Have an amazing weekend, take care 📸🙏
Great review, Adrian! keep on going
Thanks for watching 🙏
Hi Adrian, 16-35mm is such a fantastic focal range and f4 is a good choice for traveling and hiking. I was also already thinking about buying an f4 version of my f2.8 lenses for steeper hikes. But you know, budgets are always limited :)
A great video, thank you for sharing!
Nice greetings,
Christian
Thanks Christian. It has been a great lens for me. You are right that focal length is very handy to have. Good for those longer hikes. Hope you have a great weekend, cheers 📸🙏
I use a Sony 16-35mm f2.8GM and this focal length is what made me fall in love with landscapes. Great images you captured with your lens! Those Iceland shots were epic 😍 missing the place already. Very informative review, though I probably won’t jump systems for now to Nikon 😂
Thanks so much for watching. I love that Sony 16-35 GM. I used it last year with the A1. Match mode in heaven. Have a great day 🙏📸
You have certainly gotten your money out of your 16-35 investment. It's almost a shame that it is probably being nearly retired by your new 14-30. So many beautiful images in this video. Like an AA greatest hits or something! You should call this an EXTRA Long Term review! LOL I'm interested to see your upcoming comparison video. Thanks, Adrian!
Thanks for watching Phil. Yes I'm looking forward to sharing the comparison video between the 16-35mm and 14-30mm. It takes time though as I have to go to different locations with different lighting, sunrises, sunsets etc. Have a great weekend mate, take care 📸🙏
I have the same Lens. Works a treat. The Vignetting i guess is all over.. mine does it also.
Thanks very much for watching.. Cheers and have a great day 📸🙏
Awesome video, would you recommend this lens for real estate photography?
Yes you can use this lens for real estate. Other lenses to consider are 14-24mm F2.8 or 20mm F1.8. I have a long term review of the 14-24mm F2.8 coming out this Saturday on my channel.
Another fantastic video. Question have you used with FTZ adaptor with your Z 7 ?
Thanks for watching. I have used the FTZII with my Z7 with 2 other lenses in this video - ruclips.net/video/NFp7RZWpMRo/видео.html - I’ll be trying the 16-35mm soon 🙏📸
Got to punish those lenses rain, seawater, sand, wind all of it😂Nice one Adrian and amazing photos and places you were able to visit🤗
Thanks for watching Chris. Enjoy your weekend, cheers 📸🙏
Awesome and amazing👍👍
Thanks for watching 🙏
Great review Adrain - or should I say "Long Term Review"! Great choice for landscape photography - as always, amazing photos. Many thanks for sharing your thoughts and tips on this lens - take care, look forward toy your next video :)
Thanks for watching Shaun, cheers mate. Definitely one of those lenses I just have to have in my bag. Hope you have a great weekend 📸🙏
Nice review , I just picked up a nice used copy of this today cant wait for it to show up and have some fun with it on my D4
Thanks for watching. Enjoy the lens when it shows up 👍🙏
Do u read minds because i was going thru ur playlist I can’t find this one but today when i wake up walla u have it. Thank you
Thank you for watching 🙏
Thanks for the video .... could you share which UV filter you use ?
Thanks for watching. Hoya slimline UV.
@@adrianalfordphotography Thank you !
@@adrianalfordphotography is it this filter you use? Hoya 77mm NX-10 UV Filter
Hi Adrian, if i have a 24-120 and want to have a wider lens for landscape, how should i be thinking about 16-35 vs 14-24 apart from the weight and cost? Thanks!
Filters are easier and cheaper for 16-35. 14-24 is good for astro as well. Tough choice. I have both but if I could only get one I would probably go with 16-35
Hey Adrian, i wondered whether i can use this lens on my Nikon D5200. I've read that the Nikon D5200 has a APS-C Censor and uses the Nikon DX format which should fit to the Nikkor 16-35mm lens or am I wrong with that?
This is an FX lens. On a DX camera it’ll turn it into a 24mm-52.5mm focal length.
@@adrianalfordphotography Oh thats actually good to know, it seems to me i haven't noticed this information! But does this affect the wide angle function? I mean there is a difference between the focal lengths 16mm and 24mm. Right now I'm a bit puzzled. :)
By a huge margin I much prefer my 14-24 2.8, nothing to do with 2.8 vs f/4 it's just a far superior lens in my opinion, going from 14 to 24 is perfect as I have a 24-120 f/4 so no zoom overlap either
If your argument is that it is a “far superior” lens because you have no zoom overlap going to another lens, then, well, you’re wrong. At no point in this video did I say anything about the 16-35mm lens being better than the 14-24mm (which I also own) so I don’t know where you get off getting your expert back up over a RUclips video! The 16-35 is lighter and can easily take 77mm filters. It gives me great results. I bet you don’t even own a 16-35mm and you’re just going off what you’ve read on the internet. Use whatever lens you want I don’t give 2 💩s but don’t come here pretending you’re an expert and belittle all those who own a 16-35mm lens!
Would you recommend this for the Z with adapter…
Have answered on your other comment cheers 🙏
