Excellent Lens for So Many Applications - It has earned a special spot in my camera bag, and I always take it with me.
Every photograph is a compromise (e.g., shutter speed, ISO, f/stop), every piece of equipment is a compromise (e.g., cost, weight, capabilities). For what I like to do, this lens is perfection. Nikon offers quite a few similar lenses, so you might want to shop carefully.
Excellent for the price
I debated on this versus the 14-28. This is considerably smaller and lighter which appealed to me. I took this on a recent vacation to Ireland and was expecting major distortion and some softness at the longer end based on some (not all) reviews.

Nikon AF-S Nikkor 16-35mm 1:4G ED VR review
Nikon's 16-35mm F4 VR is the first true wide zoom to sport optical stabilization, but thankfully doesn't compromise imaging performance to do so. It's an excellent choice particularly for full frame users, but you do need to be aware of its pronounced barrel distortion at wide angle.- Users of full frame Nikon SLRs looking for a wideangle zoom that's less expensive and more portable than the existing F2.8 options.
- Architecture and interiors (due to distortion at 16mm), DX users (due to limited range)
Love this lens, not too big, travel grea
Great for travel, not too big, great for landscape photos.- Durable
- Easily Interchangeable
- Fast / accurate auto-focus
Excellent sharpness, VR makes a huge difference for low ligh
Pros: On my D800 this lens is as sharp as my nikon 20 and 35 mm primes. In a zoom that is a spectacular achievement. It is obviously much slower but for the landscape shooting I do with it the VR lets me hand hold down to half a second easily and a second if I brace myself on something.
Overall A Great, Flexible Lens
- Fast / accurate auto-focus
- Flexible
- High contrast
- Sharp
- VR
- Lacks 'brilliance
- Poor in Low Light
