Nikon 24mm f/2.8D AF Nikkor review by rcoder

I bought this lens used a few weeks ago specifically for street photography, and have been pretty happy with the results. On a cropped digital body like by D70, the 24mm focal length is only mildly "wide", works well for candid and from-the-hip shots.
Pros:
  • compact
  • good view angle on a digital body
  • perfect "street" lens
Cons:
  • prone to flare
  • f/2.8 aperture not as fast as many other primes

Nikon 24mm f/2.8D AF Lens

This page currently exists because it is required by the database and content management systems for me to post information and standard...

Nikon AF NIKKOR 24mm f/2.8D Lens JAA125DA review

Optically, the lens holds its own, despite showing some signs of age: wide open it shows some corner softness, and chromatic aberration is a problem for Nikon bodies which don't automatically remove it.

AF 24 mm f/2.8D

Originally posted 2006-12-27 on Optyczne.pl After the launch of cameras equipped with APS-C/DX class sensors, it got rather quiet around 24 mm devices. Perhaps the silence was a bit undeserved. On full frame such instruments provide a quite wide angle of view, equal of as many as 84 degrees.
Cons:
  • weak image quality on the edge of the frame
  • visible chromatic aberration
  • high coma

Nikkor AF 24mm f/2.8D - Review / Test Report

The Nikkor AF 24mm f/2.8D didn't really convince during the tests due to various shortcomings. The resolution figures were generally very decent and there's only a slight degree of barrel distortions. However, the lens shows very high vignetting at f/2.8 and very pronounced CAs.

Fast wide angle at a decent price This is your lens. I got this glass when I purchased my first modern film camera (Nikon F80), the salesperson who was helping me at the store said that this was the best for a 'normal' lens for the camera, and he was right.
Pros:
  • * Sharp Lens
  • * Great for a Film body
  • * Fast Autofocus
  • * Fast Wide Angle Lens
Cons:
  • * Doesn't do well on a digital body

  • Durable
  • Easily Interchangeable
  • Fast / accurate auto-focus
  • Lightweight
  • Nice Bokeh
  • Rugged
  • Strong Construction
Cons:
  • NONE

I think it was Foreigner that said 'I wanna know what love is' Well my amigo, love comes in the form of this small and lightweight 24mm lens! This sexy little mama produces a nectar so sweet and addictive that I will be forever faithful and think of Sinead O'Connor when she sang 'Nothing compares 2...
