Is the nikon z 70 200mm f 2 8 vr s worth it?

Yes, if you shoot portraits, events, sport or wildlife from a distance and want a fast, stabilised telephoto zoom on a full-frame body. At f/2.8 you get strong background blur, and the stabilisation helps when you're handheld. The portraits guide explains why this focal range flatters faces, and the landscape guide shows where a telephoto zoom earns its place.

It's a big lens, so if you'll carry it all day, look at the lighter Nikon Z 70-200mm f/2.8 VR S II, which is about a quarter lighter than the first version. For bodies, the Nikon Z6 III is a good all-round match, and the Nikon Z8 suits fast action. If you're not sure full frame is worth the extra weight, read Sensor sizes first.
