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

Nikon's AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8G ED is an advanced standard zoom lens ideally suited for general photography, thanks to its wide-angle to portrait perspectives. While specially designed for incredible edge-to-edge sharpness on the Nikon full-frame FX format, it provides the 35mm focal length equivalence of 36-105mm on DX-format cameras. The f/2.8 maximum aperture means you can capture stunning images even in challenging low light situations. You can create artistic shallow depth of field and pleasing out-of-focus highlights enhanced by a rounded 9-blade diaphragm. Nikon packed this lens with features including three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) elements and Precision Glass Mold (PGM) aspherical lenses that help control chromatic aberrations while enhancing sharpness and contrast, even at the widest aperture settings. Nano Crystal and Super Integrated lens coatings enhance light transmission, reducing flare and ghosting. There is internal focusing paired with a Silent Wave Motor for smooth and quiet focusing action. three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) elements and Precision Glass Mold (PGM) aspherical lenses that help control chromatic aberrations while enhancing sharpness and contrast, even at the widest aperture settings.

Super Integrated Coating

The Nikon anti-reflective coating is an optical design feature which ensures superior clarity and image brilliance, even in poor or unfavorable lighting conditions. Nikon applies the anti-reflective coating through a special process, layering the lens surface in order to substantially reduce unwanted flare or ghosting. This process helps to ensure incredibly rich image contrast and true color fidelity.

Silent Wave Motor (SWM)

Nikon's Silent Wave Motor technology provides rapid auto-focusing while remaining exceedingly quiet and accurate.

M/A Mode

AF-S NIKKOR lenses include Nikon's proprietary M/A mode. This feature allows you to effortlessly switch from autofocus to manual operation with virtually no time lag. Regardless of the AF mode, you can simply and conveniently switch to manual focus even during AF servo operation.

Aspherical Design

Nikon's aspherical lens design creates a more complex surface profile. This helps to greatly reduce spherical and other optical aberrations. The design further ensures consistent imaging performance throughout the entire focal range, while delivering incredible sharpness up to the periphery of the image.

Internal Focusing (IF)

Nikon's Internal Focusing feature allows you to focus a lens without changing its size. With IF Lenses all optical movement is restricted to the interior of the lens barrel, providing for a lighter, more efficient design. Faster focusing is produced by a lighter and compact focusing lens group.
