Nikon Nikkor Z 14-30mm f/4 レンズ

Finally, a wide-angle that accepts regular filters — the front element doesn't bulge, which makes it much more practical for outdoor shooting than most ultrawides.

I was skeptical about an ultra-wide that takes filters, but the 14-30mm f/4 handles flare beautifully even shooting straight into the sun. Sharpness across the frame at 14mm is genuinely impressive for such a compact zoom.

The fact that it takes standard 82mm filters at 14mm is a game-changer for landscape work, saved me from buying a bulky filter holder system. Sharpness across the frame is solid, though the f/4 aperture means I'm often bumping the ISO in dimmer conditions.
