Oops, thank you Frank, already changed in the original post

The 24 has an outstanding geometrical correction I have not seen in any other Wide Angle Nikkor so far AND it features a very high color fidelity over a huge range of lighting situation and complicated colors like purple, orange and certain greentones, all at the edge of the gamut ability of most recording media. Yet that is a very subjective evaluation mostly based on my extensive use with the D3, D500 and the D850 indoors and outdoors. The D600 is no reference point, because it has color gamut issues of its own.

The D850 is still my reference point in color fidelity when it comes to recording media. I am evaluating the Z9 now and will see if she matches the D850 in this respect ...

John, I like your use of the 24mm 1.4g very much. Shows the character of both the lens and the bike. Lovely enviromental portrait
Thanks Paco

Yes I agree with the special qualities of the 24/1.4G Geometry,  colours and off course it's beautiful rendering and bokeh which looks like the 58G. Also the close focus of 25cm is a pré.

Well ripened lemons arenot that sour, they have a certain sweetness.
Mix the juice with sodiumbicarbonate and hot water for a morning starter!
