Covering a versatile array of wide-angle focal lengths, the Nikon AF-S 16-35mm f/4G ED VR Lens is a flexible zoom ideal for landscape, cityscape, and interior photography. Its constant f/4 maximum aperture maintains consistent illumination throughout the zoom range and suits working in a variety of lighting conditions. The optical design contains three aspherical elements and two extra-low dispersion elements, which greatly reduce distortion and aberrations for a high degree of sharpness, clarity, and accurate rendering. A Nano Crystal Coat has also been applied to control flare and ghosting for greater contrast and colour accuracy in harsh lighting and backlit conditions. Additionally, this lens also sports a Silent Wave Motor for fast and accurate autofocus along with VR II image stabilization to minimize the appearance of camera shake by 2.5 stops.
Key Features of the Nikon AF-S 16-35mm f/4G ED VR Lens
Mount Lens/FX Format
Aperture Range: f/4 to f/22
Three Aspherical and Two ED Elements
Nano Crystal Coat
Silent Wave Motor AF System
VR II Image Stabilization
Rounded 9-Blade Diaphragm
Constant f/4 maximum aperture
Constant f/4 maximum aperture offers consistent performance and light transmission throughout the zoom range
Three aspherical elements
Three aspherical elements are used to reduce spherical aberrations and distortion in order to realize sharp imagery with accurate rendering
Two extra-low dispersion elements
Two extra-low dispersion elements greatly reduce colour fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to produce greater clarity and colour accuracy
Wide-angle zoom designed for FX-format sensors
Wide-angle zoom designed for FX-format sensors, this 16-35mm lens can also be used with DX models where it provides a 24-52.5mm equivalent focal length range
Nano Crystal Coat
A Nano Crystal Coat has been applied to individual elements to suppress internal reflections, flare, and ghosting for improved contrast and colour accuracy when working in strong lighting conditions
Silent Wave Motor
Silent Wave Motor affords quick, quiet, and precise autofocus performance along with full-time manual focus override. An internal focusing design is also used, where only the internal lens groups are moved during focusing, to maintain the overall length of the lens during use and to promote faster-focusing speeds
VR II (Vibration Reduction) image stabilization
VR II (Vibration Reduction) image stabilization helps to minimize the appearance of camera shake by 2.5 stops to benefit shooting handheld in difficult lighting conditions
Rounded nine-blade diaphragm
Rounded nine-blade diaphragm promotes a pleasing out of focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field techniques
