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.

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.
Constant f/4 maximum aperture offers consistent performance and light transmission throughout the zoom range.
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 greatly reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to produce greater clarity and color accuracy.
A Nano Crystal Coat has been applied to individual elements to suppress internal reflections, flare, and ghosting for improved contrast and color accuracy when working in strong lighting conditions.
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 helps to minimize the appearance of camera shake by 2.5 stops to benefit shooting handheld in difficult lighting conditions.
Rounded nine-blade diaphragm promotes a pleasing out of focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field techniques.

question

I take interior shots of furniture I produce, will this lens make the edges round zoomed in all the way
Asked by: Anonymous
The Nikon 16-35mm f/4 VR will have barrel distortion at 16mm. but this is fairly easy to fix in photoshop, and isnt an issue at other focal lengths. It is an excellent lens, and would be a great option for shooting interiors.

This or the 24-70mm ? Which is better

This or the 24-70mm ? Which is better
Asked by: chauna
This really depends on the application as these cover different usage scenarios. The Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 16-35mm f/4G ED VR Lens is a great wide angle lens for landscape, architecture and other similar applications. A 24-70mm lens would cover more of what one generally photographs on a day to day basis. If only getting a single lens, a 24-70mm is generally the better option.

question

Will this lens work on a D3300?
Asked by: Anonymous
Yes, this lens will work with a D3300 because it is an AF-S lens. However, because the D3300 has an APS-C sensor the equivalent focal lengths will be 24-52mm but should you move into a full frame camera in the future you are ready to go with this lens. Personally, I use this lens on my D300 and my D800 and it performs great on both.

question

how is this in low light
Asked by: Anonymous
Low light taking photos of what? If you shoot low light interiors and static scenes this lens is great. I am doing 1/8 on my D800 and getting stellar results due to VR feature. Note: VR drains battery a lot faster than non-VR lens. But if your objects are moving the VR won't help. You should go with larger F-stop prime (!) lens such as Nikon 20mm f/1.8 ED
