Nikon 24mm f/2.8D AF Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras Reviews
61 of 62 people found the following review helpful: By Christo "montxsuz" (Vancouver, Canada) - See all my reviews This review is from: Nikon 24mm f/2.8D AF Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras (Electronics) It is sharp, it is light, it is wide-angle.24mm is a ideal compromise (between 20mm and 28mm). Wider than this becomes quite distorted, longer than this limits your view. It is ideal for landscapes if you want to include an interesting foreground. It is also a solid lens, and I am happy with the built-quality. The lens is certainly fast enough for me. On top of that, the optical quality is excellent - perfect for enlargements or slide projection. Good contrast, good colour. Apart from that, the lens is small and lightweight, which again makes it fantastic for outdoor photographers. I love mine. 58 of 59 people found the following review helpful: By This review is from: Nikon 24mm f/2.8D AF Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras (Electronics) This autofocusing 24mm f2.8 Nikkor lens is optically unchanged from the manual focusing 24mm f2.8 Nikkor lens that I once owned. This speaks rather well for this design, which was the first ever made with Nikon's CRC (floating element) feature. It certainly is one of the best 24mm lenses available, with fine contrast and resolution. Its performance is almost as good as the venerable Contax Carl Zeiss T* 25mm f2.8 Distagon which I own now; itself another excellent lens design which also dates from the late 1960s. If you tend to photograph a lot of landscapes or need to cover a moderate amount of interior space without excessive distortion, then this will be an excellent lens to add to your Nikon autofocus SLR system. Since this is a Nikon AI-S lens, it will also work too with any manual focusing Nikon camera dating as far back as the venerable Nikon F2A and Nikkormat FT3. 48 of 49 people found the following review helpful: By This review is from: Nikon 24mm f/2.8D AF Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras (Electronics) The 24mm f/2.8 is an outstanding performer. Sharp, good contrast, fast autofocus.On a digital SLR such as the D70 or D2x, the 24mm lens gives you the same degree of coverage as a 35mm lens on a film camera. This makes the 24mm a ideal "normal" lens and great for walk-abouts. Why not use a zoom for a walk-about? Size and complexity, that's why. The 24mm is quite compact and keeps the bulk and weight of the D70 at a minimum, perfect for carrying all day while shopping, sight-seeing, or visiting the zoo with the kids. I have been a Nikon user for 40 years and have always chosen smaller bodies to keep the bulk at a minimum. Trust me, you will love this lens. |
