Lens Talk / Re: The Nikkor Z 14-24mm f/2.8 S Lens
« Last post by Ilkka Nissilä on Today at 13:14:27 »I'm wondering if anyone here has used 112 mm front filters with this lens, and what experience you had with practical use mounted on the larger hood and if there are any optical issues that arose?
I'm primarily interested in a protection glass for some sports photography to keep the lens safe in case something should hit the front of the lens. I am thinking of purchasing the NiSi 112mm clear filter for this purpose; it is less than one half of the price of the Nikon NC 112mm and I figured if the filter is damaged I'd be very disappointed if the cost is as high as the Nikon filter's is. Is there any significant extra flare or ghosting when using a front filter?
I find the provided support for filters on this lens commendable: it can take a rear filter (this could work well for ND filtering e.g. water flow or for video in bright light), and front filters with the provided special hood. What is more, the filter could be attached to the hood and cap placed on it, and then the whole hood with filter and cap could be removed to access the lens without the filter. This seems very convenient if you only need the filter for specific situations. Also for polarizer though I don't expect to use one on such a wide lens.
