So wonderful to have this lens in its original box after 3 days. Great service and delivery.

Brand new & original as ads

Great lens for scenics and shooting in cramped interiors. Focal length range is a short, but still very useful. Allows for very short camera to subject distance with distortion very well-controlled at all apertures and focal lengths. Great depth-of-field.

Purchased this lens last year and recently took it with me to Vietnam, Cambodia . I was very impressed with the quality of the images produced It is a superb street camera.

I used this lens with my Nikon D750, and I found the pictures not very sharp. I returned the lens to Amazon.

The most obvious thing about this lens, however, is its quietness: it really is virtually silent in AF mode. It is also very quick and focuses both accurately and reliably. Manual intervention can be used in AF mode but there was no occasion when it was needed during testing.

Stunning optical quality

Slippery barrel finish

Being the first of its kind, Nikon's new 16-35mm f/4 ultra-wide zoom, selling for ￡879, has garnered quite a lot of interest, especially from those who wish to use filters for landscape work, as Nikon's current top-line ultra-wide, the 14-24mm F/2.8 can't accept filters.

Good all-round resolution performance; Lighter than f/2.8 lenses; Accepts 77mm filters; Vibration Reduction

Barrel distortion at 16mm; Vignetting at 16mm

The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 16-35mm 1:4G ED VR, announced in February 2010, has the distinction of being the world's first ultra-wideangle lens to feature optical image stabilization. It's designed primarily for use on full-frame DSLRs, as a less-expensive alternative to the likes of the 17-35mm 1:2.8D or...

Very high image quality on both DX and FX formats; Excellent build quality with dust and moisture sealing; Highly effective optical image stabilization; Fast; silent autofocus with manual override

Huge barrel distortion at 16mm on FX cameras; Relatively big and heavy for its class (larger than many F2.8 wideangle zooms; Slightly inelegant flare handling

While I hope to create a full Nikon 16-35mm f/4G AF-S VR Lens, my first priority is to include results from this lens in the lens comparison tools available on the site. This page currently exists because it is required by the database and content management systems for me to post information and...

When you talk about lenses these days you always have to bring in the multiplication factor, especially when you have a lens that fits comfortably on both so-called full-frame and APS-C sensor cameras.

I preordered this lens when it was announced, something I don't ever do, but I wanted an ultra wide for FX to go the the Grand Tetons with. I read the initial reviews posted by the internet forum nay-sayers and felt a bit discouraged. Then I got the lens and actually used it.

Very sharp; fairly light weight; perfect ultra wide range; balances nicely
