Nikon AF-S Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8G ED

The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8G ED is the lens for Nikon event shooters, but its not a perfect performer.

Nikon Nikkor AF-S 24-70 mm f/2.8G ED

In August 2007 we saw one of the biggest offensives mounted by Nikon so far – two new reflex cameras, D300 and D3, based on new CMOS sensors were launched at the same time and also the whole armada of professional lenses. Among them there were two...

great quality of casing ; outstanding image quality in the frame centre at all combinations of focal lengths and apertures ; good image quality on the edge of the frame from f/4.0 upwards ; chromatic aberration quite well corrected ; moderate...

image quality on the edge of the frame at the maximum aperture should have been better ; transmission worse than that of competitors ; huge coma in the full frame corners ; average work against bright light for this class of equipment
