AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8E ED VR

  • AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8E ED VR

Overview

  • 2.9x normal zoom with 24-70 mm* focal-length range and f/2.8 maximum aperture that delivers improved resolution and natural blurring.
    • *When attached to a DX-format digital SLR, the angle of view is equivalent to that of a lens with a focal length of 36-105 mm in FX/35mm format.
  • Aspherical ED glass, aspherical lens, ED glass and HRI lens elements plus Nano Crystal Coat are employed to achieve high optical performance with minimal ghost effect and chromatic aberration.
  • Newly developed aspherical ED glass element provides superior rendering capability by maximizing the advantages of both ED glass and aspherical lens - effectively correcting various lens aberrations.
  • Vibration Reduction (VR) provides an effect equivalent to a shutter speed 4.0 stops faster in NORMAL mode.
    • *Based on CIPA Standard. This value is achieved when attached to an FX-format digital SLR camera, with zoom set at the maximum telephoto position.
  • Highly durable body withstands the severest shooting environments of professionals.
  • Even during high-speed continuous shooting, accurate AF tracking is achieved, while exposure is stably controlled with the adoption of an electromagnetic diaphragm mechanism.
  • Lens barrel designed for improved operability and comfortable holding.
  • Fluorine coat is applied to the extreme front and rear lens surfaces for enhanced durability and dust prevention.
