Nikon 180mm f/2.8 IF-ED AF Review Round-Up

 

It was a joy to test drive the AF 180mm f/2.8 IF-ED - it's one of those lenses that harmonized perfectly with the camera. The resolution is generally excellent. Distortions and vignetting are not field relevant. Lateral CAs are well controlled although...

Sharp, Sharp, Sharp!

 

Not quite long enough for a "real" wild life lens but a very handy length if the subject is close and also good for landscapes.

My favourite lens

 

I have a collection of about a dozen Nikkor lenses, ranging from 10.5mm to 300mm, and if I had to chose only one, it would be the 180mm. On my D90 it is effectively a 270mm f2.8 lens, at an astonishingly cheap price for the quality of its construction...

Nikon 180mm f/2.8D ED-IF AF Nikkor review by GregTheRotter

 

First off, I am using this lens on the D700.

Great Bokeh, really light, very nice build quality, pretty snappy AF

Not tack sharp. On DX it might be, on FX it isn't

Nikon 180mm f/2.8D ED-IF AF Nikkor review by HighSierra

 

Wow, what a lens! I really can't detect any increase in sharpness when stopping down, on a D200. Thus F/2.8 can be used with impunity and no remorse. Beyond sharpness though, this lens has great bokeh, and a very nice way of rendering tone. Though...

Extremely sharp straight from F2.8, very solid construction

Purple fringing around extreme contrast borders at F2.8
