User Ratings & Reviews:

The 12-24mm f/4G ED-IF AF-S DX is an aultra-wide angle zoom lens for exclusive use with Nikon DX-format Digital SLRs.

  • Designed for Nikon D-Series digital SLR
  • Design enables a combination of wider angle-of-view with optical characteristics that are optimized for Nikon digital SLR camera sensors
  • 2x Zoom ratio and variable angle-of-view from 99 degrees at 12mm to 61 degrees at 24mm. Comparable to that of an 18-36mm lens on 35mm size sensor format
  • Nikon design that produces a smaller image circle (the size of the image that is projected by the lens on to the sensor) enabling smaller lens diameter, and optimal image quality from center-to-edge-to-corner on the image
  • Exclusive Silent Wave Motor enables ultra-high-speed autofocusing with exceptional accuracy and powerful super-quiet operation
  • 2 Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass elements for minimized chromatic aberration
  • 3 Aspherical lens element for low distortion
  • Internal Focusing (IF) design for smoother focusing and great body balance
  • M/A mode enables instant switching from autofocus to manual with virtually no time lag even during AF servo operation
  • Nikon D-type design provides precise distance information for flash and ambient light exposure processes
  • Rounded diaphragm to make out-of-focus elements appear more natural
