Surprise Lens!
I picked up this lens after agonizing over another 24-70 f2.8 or the 24-120 f4. The lens goes on my D800e and I had my doubts as to how sharp the thing would be. Now that I have been using it for a while my doubts have faded away and I am really pretty happy with the lens. I do mostly nature of one type of another now and as a retired Commercial Photographer am pretty picky with how lenses (especially zoom lenses) perform. Being a old guy I am by definition "Old School". Used nothing but prim...

Great lens for the normal range., and then some.
I like to carry a small, light lens for the middle range. This lens does that and more. The 24mm covers the wide range so that is a big plus. The 85mm for portraits and close ups. I've found the lens to be as sharp as the lens it replaces, the really sharp AF-S 24-85mm that was discontinued in 2006. I was never disappointed with that lens, and now with VR I like the new lens even more. Did I mention this is a sharp lens....
Explore the realms of sharpness and versatility with the Nikon 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED AF-S NIKKOR VR Lens, a high-quality, reliable, and durable choice for photographers and videographers alike. This innovative lens is designed to deliver exceptional performance across a wide range of photography styles, from sweeping landscapes to intimate portraits.
Capture Every Scene with Precision:
The Nikon 24-85mm lens offers a flexible FX-format zoom with a 3.6x zoom ratio that is perfect for a diverse array of shots. Its wide-angle to medium telephoto range makes it an indispensable tool for capturing everything from expansive vistas to fine details.
Advanced Image Stabilization Technology:
Equipped with Nikon's advanced VR II (Vibration Reduction) technology, this lens provides up to 4.0 stops of blur-free handheld shooting, ensuring sharp images and steady HD video capture even in low-light conditions or when shooting at longer focal lengths.
Intelligent Auto Tripod Detection:
The lens features a sophisticated auto tripod detection system that automatically optimizes VR performance for tripod shooting, delivering high-contrast results and stability for HD video recording and long-exposure photography.
A Lens for Every Occasion:
At the wide end, the 24mm focal length (36mm on DX-format cameras) is ideal for travel, architecture, and group photos, while the 85mm end (equivalent to 136.5mm on DX-format cameras) is perfect for close-ups, portraits, and interviews, making it a versatile choice for any shooting scenario.
Optical Excellence:
The lens construction includes three aspherical elements and one extra-low dispersion (ED) element, which significantly reduce spherical and chromatic aberrations, ensuring high resolution and contrast while minimizing distortion across the entire zoom range. Nikon's Super Integrated Coating enhances light transmission efficiency, improves color consistency, and reduces lens flare and ghosting.
Silent and Precise Autofocus:
Nikon's Silent Wave Motor (SWM) provides fast, accurate, and quiet autofocus, which is essential for capturing fleeting moments and for video recording where noise can be intrusive. The M/A Focus Mode Switch allows for seamless switching between manual and autofocus modes, giving photographers the flexibility to adjust focus to suit the creative demands of the moment.
Additional Features for Exceptional Imagery:
- Internal Focusing (IF) design maintains the compact size of the lens and prevents the front element from rotating, which is especially useful when using polarizing filters.
- The rounded 7-blade diaphragm creates a pleasing bokeh effect, softly blurring the background and making the subject stand out.
The Nikon 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED AF-S NIKKOR VR Lens is a testament to Nikon's commitment to optical innovation and precision engineering. It is a must-have for both enthusiastic hobbyists and professional photographers who demand clarity, detail, and versatility in their work.
