Another variant listing of the Nikon Z DX 50-250mm — same lens as IDs 3411, 3420, 3429, 3572.
The Nikon Z DX 50-250mm is yet another listing variant of Nikon's compact DX telephoto zoom for Z-mount cameras. This is the same lens previously described under IDs 3411, 3420, 3429, and 3572. Launched in 2019 with the Z 50, it provides 75-375mm equivalent reach in a remarkably compact and lightweight package for casual telephoto photography.
Optical quality is good for a kit-class telephoto. Centre sharpness is solid throughout the range with VR stabilisation providing around 5 stops of correction. The stepping motor autofocus is quiet and smooth, suitable for both stills and video. Performance is entirely consistent with all other listings of this same lens — it is one product regardless of listing name.
Nikon Z mount, DX format. Filter thread is 62mm. Weight is approximately 405 grams. The retractable design keeps the lens compact when stored. No weather sealing. Build quality is functional plastic with a metal mount. Compatible with all Nikon Z bodies — DX bodies natively, FX bodies in DX crop mode.
Extremely common on the used market from kit splits. Check zoom and focus smoothness. Do not pay a premium for different variant listings — they are all the same lens. One of the best budget DX telephoto options available in any system for the combination of reach, weight, and price.
