Go to the DxO Lens Database and see some measured data for the glass in question.
If the link goes thru correctly, you'll be on the page with both the Nikkor G 1.8 and the 1.4
You'll see that the 1.8 is pretty darn good and bests the 1.4 in a few areas......I'm massivelly impressed .
The new Z (or is is S) mount stuff for the Mirrorless is a littel MORE $$ but also is VERY good performing.
My goal is a 3-lens kit. I'm not interesting in Birding.....but WOULD like a good Macro. I tested the Nikkor 105 f2.8 on my camera (FTZ Adapter) and it was OK. Maybe I'll just be satisfied with some extension rings? For 40$? I don't see the downside for limitied close-up / macro style use.
The kit lens with the Mirrorless, a 24-70 f4 is really fine. Add to that the 70-200 f2.8 (not yet out) and a good prime, and I'm golden.
I carried around EOS 1 stuff for a decade and change and it just got TOO HEAVY. The 100-400 L lens was hardly used but weighted a TON.
Those Z-series bodies from Nikon are quite nice. Just be SURE to update to the latest Firmware, which last I looked was 3.0 and helps autofocus / tracking / eye lock.....
Too much is never enough
