Product Information

The Nikon AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 12-24mm f/4G IF-ED is designed specifically for use with Nikon DX format digital SLR cameras. It features ultra-wideangle zoom capability, ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass and Nikon's exclusive built-in SWM (Silent Wave Motor).

The lens is targeted at professional and advanced amateur Nikon D-SLR users who demand both the advantages of high optical performance and ultra-wideangle focal range.

This G-type Nikkor lens is designed with no aperture rings, and offers easier, virtually mistake-free operation because the aperture does not need to be set to minimum.

Note: Equivalent focal length in 35mm terms is 18-36mm.

Note: AF-S feature is not supported by certain camera models. Please click here for a list of compatible models.

Note! DX lenses are NOT recommended for use with 35mm, "full-frame" digital, or APS SLR cameras
Features

Fast, ultra-wideangle zoom lens with Silent Wave Motor

Two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements minimize chromatic aberration, provide higher resolution and superior contrast

Three aspherical lens elements minimize distortion, especially at the periphery, for superior optical performance

High-grade Nikon Super Integrated Coating (SIC) offers superior color reproduction and minimizes ghost and flare

"SWM" (Silent Wave Motor) for swift autofocusing with superior accuracy and ultra-quiet operation

The rounded diaphragm opening (7 blades) makes out-of-focus elements appear more natural

M/A mode allows rapid switching between autofocus and manual even during AF servo operation, with virtually no time lag

Internal Focusing (IF) design for smoother focusing and great body balance
