So I just picked up a Z6ii and I'm totally lost on what lens to stick on it permanently. I've been reading a ton of reviews and everyone says the 24-120mm f/4 S is like the gold standard for travel but then I see people swearing by the 24-70mm f/4 because it's so much lighter and cheaper. I'm going to Japan in June and I really dont want to be swapping lenses constantly while I'm walking around Tokyo or hiking near Fuji.
My constraints:
- budget is around $1100 maybe a bit more if its worth it
- gotta be good for street photography and landscapes
- not too heavy since I'm walking 20k steps a day
Is the 24-120 too bulky for a three week trip or should I just stick with the kit lens and save the cash?

TL;DR: Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S. I'm super satisfied; the range was more reliable for landscapes than the Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S was on my last trip. Works well.
