Nikkor AF 28mm f/2.8D

 

Released back in 1994 the Nikkor AF 28mm f/2.8D is one of the older AF lensesin Nikon's lens lineup. On classic full frame SLRs it is a wide- to ultra-wide-anglelens whereas its field-of-view is equivalent to 42mm on today's Nikon APS-C DSLRs soit...

The principal design of the Nikkor AF 28mm f/2.8D is obviously closely related tothe AF 24mm f/2.8D so it shares some of its characteristics. The resolution figuresare very good but otherwise the lens left something to be desired for a fix-focal.The...

Nikon 28mm f/2.8D AF Nikkor review by lightknight

 

This lens is a bit of a sleeper as its quite cheap but does give quite good image quality once past F4.

small, light, very sharp centre resolution

some distortion, not particularly robust

Nikon 28mm f/2.8D AF Nikkor review by sgnirts

 

A simple classic. This lens is easy to carry, performs in low light, classic handling. Primes always bring out creativity because you are not overwhelmed with options and over thinking, sure, some zooms match this lenses performance today, but who...

fairly wide, smooth focus, reasonably sharp, bright and fast at f2.8, great color and contrast. Very light

Not "extra tack sharp", a little distortion...get over it

Nikon 28mm f/2.8D Nikkor AF

 

I was hoping that this lens would be the perfect, slightly wide "normal" lens for my D200. I was not thrilled with the image quality - it seemed to focus properly and sharply at very close distances, but was not sharp at normal distances. The problems...

Compact, fairly fast, not terribly expensive.

My sample did not focus properly (exhibited back focus) on my D200.

Nikon 28mm f/2.8D AF Nikkor review by tommy

 

Small, light, fast, sharp... but I've been really disappointed with the chromatic aberration (colour fringing) on this lens in high-contrast areas of images. Fringing around trees against bright skies have been bad enough to cause a stock library to to...

small, light, sharp, fast

bad chromatic aberration

Nikon 28mm f/2.8D AF Nikkor review by Turk182

 

I purchased this lens used on e-bay, the lens sold new for around $351.00, but can be purchased used between $115.00 to $150.00 U.S. dollars. It is small, and light weight and is a good walk around lens. Since I purchased a AF-S 17-35mm f2.8 zoom, I...

This is a very nice compact lens to carry. Fast to auto focus

Little on the plastic feel

Nikon 28mm f/2.8D AF Nikkor review by TeoK

 

Great lens. tiny, fast and super easy to use. Great color rendition. On film cameras produces very natural perspective. On digital bodies it becomes 42mm lens - should be very pleasing.

Nikon 28mm f/2.8D AF Nikkor review by julioalperi

 

Resolution is very good ( excelent at F:5,6)in center, but only good in corners. With med- high barrel distortion, high vignetting (at f/2.8) and pronounced CAs. the AF 28mm f/2.8D is not a bad lens, but as a fix-focal I expected a better performance.
