Can't relay answer your question without the complete lens name eg. Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8G ED.
That lens goes for around 1600 $US and shouldn't be a problem. Older versions etc may not that good.

Also you are pixel peeping which is OK but with your camera "corner/edge softness is not really that noticeable until you zoom in at 100% on the images" is a thing to worry about if you are printing 40x60 inch prints and viewing them from a foot away;~).

You may want to check out DxO reviews for lenses that are recommended for your camera or byThom for a lot of info on all things Nikon. I purchased his book for my D600 and it was/is very helpful in setting up the camera and explaining how a setting effects the image etc, something the Nikon manual doesn't do very well.
