Q: Is this a good lens for video with a gimbal ?
A: I’ve used this lens on my Z6ii in conjunction with my Moza AirCross 2 gimbal and it worked great. Gave a nice wide field of view without bringing in the distortion normally seen with wide-angle lenses. The lens also has a very nice background blur for the out of focus areas and a nice fast aperture for lower light situations. The only trouble I ran into was balancing the gimbal’s pitch axis because of how light the lens is compared to my camera.

I replaced my 35mm f1.8 with this lens, and paired it up to the Nikon Z50. It's a very impressive lens and is a great addition to the crop-sensor Z50, making it a 42mm lens when assuming the 1.5x crop factor. It's super sharp, lightweight, and has amazing "bokeh" at f2.8. The colors are spot-on, too...very impressed!

Great everyday lens. Plenty sharp for everyday photography, and the price point is not bad. Well built.
