AF-S Nikkor 24-70mm F2.8E ED VR - $2399 in late August.Pricing and availability for the three lenses is as follows: It has a minimum focus distance of 2.2m/7.1ft throughout the entire focal range, uses 95mm filters and also supports 1.4X, 1.7X, and 2.0X teleconverters (that's up to 1500mm on DX bodies). Inside the lens are 3 ED elements and a 9-blade rounded aperture. As with the 24-70, this lens has electronic aperture control and Vibration Reduction (up to a claimed 4.5 stops). This compact and lightweight lens has ED and aspherical elements, Nano Crystal Coating, and a 7-blade rounded aperture.įinally we have the AF-S Nikkor 200-500mm F5.6E ED VR, which we suspect will become quickly popular with enthusiast airshow and outdoor sport photographers, thanks to its relatively low price. The second lens is the (relatively) inexpensive AF-S Nikkor 24mm F1.8G ED prime, which sits alongside the 20mm and 35mm F1.8 models Nikon introduced last year. At least for the first few years of its production, the older 24-70mm F2.8 was notorious for cracking rubber around the zoom ring, and for the zoom barrel jamming. The lens has a 9-blade rounded aperture and uses 82mm filters (up from 77mm on the old model).Īlthough we haven't had the chance to handle the new 24-70mm yet, we're hoping that as well as improved optical performance, it is mechanically more robust than its predecessor. As before, the lens is sealed against dust and moisture and now has a fluorine coating on the front and back elements to make cleaning moisture and other gunk off of the lens easier. Nikon has added an Aspherical Extra-Low Dispersion (ASP/ED) element along with regular aspherical, ED, and High-Refractive Index (HRI) elements and a Nano Crystal Coating. The new version, officially known as the AF-S Nikkor 24-70mm F2.8E ED VR, offers new optical construction, Vibration Reduction, and electromagnetic aperture control. The lens that will likely garner the most attention is the replacement for the venerable 24-70mm F2.8. Nikon has released three new full-frame lenses, including a prime and both standard and super telephoto zooms.
