Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 16-35mm f/4G ED VR Ultra Wide Angle Zoom Lens

The Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 16-35mm f/4G ED VR Lens is an advanced ultra-wide-angle zoom lens. Its combination of coverage and light weight makes this lens a favorite of photojournalists all over the world. While designed for FX-format cameras, on DX format DSLRs it provides the 35mm focal length equivalence of 24-52.5mm.  This NIKKOR lens is loaded with features such as 7 lens elements in 12 groups with 2 Extra-low Dispersion (ED) and 3 aspherical elements. This works to reduce chromatic aberrations and distortion and create high contrast images.

High-Quality Images

Packed with features such as Silent Wave Motor, Internal Focusing, Manual focus, and VR II image stabilization system, this lens is sure to produce high-quality clean and sharp images in all the conditions. This lens is the ideal choice for a professional as well as an enthusiast. Its Nano Crystal Coating virtually eliminates internal lens element reflections across a wide range of wavelengths and reduces flare and ghosting. This lens is specifically engineered with no aperture ring enabling easier operation and leads to less mistakes because the aperture does not need to be set to a minimum. 

VR Image Stabilization

From daylight to low light, inside or out, near or far, your creative bases are covered with the astonishing versatility of the AF-S NIKKOR 16-35mm f/4G ED VR. Nikon VR image stabilization provides 2.5 stops of blur free handheld shooting. You can leave the tripod at home and create with spontaneity and confidence, even when lighting is less than ideal.

M/A Mode

This NIKKOR lens has a focusing mode which allows switching from automatic to manual focusing with virtually no lag time by simply turning the focusing ring on the lens. This makes it possible to seamlessly switch to fine manual focusing while looking through the viewfinder. 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

The 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. 

Extra Low Dispersion Glass (ED)

The Low Dispersion technology is engineered to reduce chromatic aberrations, eliminating the tendency of light of different colors to focus to different points at the image plane. This means your images will come out crisp and clear, with less of a chance of defracting light into an unwanted rainbow of colors. Take shots exactly like you want, without any flare-up or blurring.

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.

Nano Crystal Coat 

The Nikon anti-reflective coating is an optical design feature which ensures superior clarity and image brilliance, even in poor or unfavorable lighting conditions. It virtually eliminates internal lens element reflections across a wide range of wavelengths. Nano Crystal Coat solves ghost effects caused by red light and effectively reduces ghost and flare caused by light entering the lens diagonally. This process helps to ensure incredibly rich image contrast and true color fidelity.

Silent Wave Motor (SWM)

This AF-S NIKKOR lens feature Silent Wave Motor (SWM). This technology converts traveling waves into rotational energy to focus the optics. This enables high-speed autofocusing that is extremely accurate and super quiet.
