A+, spectacular wide angle lens = stunning images
As a professional photographer I carry a wide array of lenses with me, but this one is truly one of my favorites! I love wide angle zoom lenses because of their ability to capture the overall scene and give the viewer an overview of what is happening and this one does exactly that.
Pros:
- Durability
- f 2.8 aperture
- Quiet AF
- Ease of use
- Allows for great pictures on virtually any camera
Cons:
- Price

Great for interior architectural and landscapes
I've been using this lens with my D200, D300, D300S, D3 and now my D850 for a total of 11 years and remain satisfied with its performance. This camera has produced some of my favorite landscape photos as well as making some photos for an interior decorator possible. It's high quality and versatile.

Welded to my DSLR
To me the mark of a great lens is a lens that you wind up using a lot. The AF-S 17-35mm is such a lens. I bought mine in 1999--19 years ago! I moved to it from the fine 20-35, looking to it for a wider angle and a closer close focus. I have never been disappointed with those features.

good product
This lens has replaced my 18-70 DX lens (which is smaller and lighter) from my starter kit. This beast is quite big and heavy: have to search for a bigger photo bag. However, quality of image, focusing and build quality is excellent.
Pros:
- good product
Cons:
- nothing

Love my new lens
I love this lense because I can get the whole picture. I use to try and back up but sometimes you can only back up so much then you are cropping things out of the pictures that you really want there. That wont happen any more with this lense.
Pros:
- Quick Focus
- Rugged
- Sharp Focus
- Strong Construction
- Wide Angle
Cons:
- Heavy

Nikon Wide Angle Zoom - Nikon AF-S Zoom Nikkor 17-35mm f/2.8D IF-ED
The center sharpness of this lens is amazing and performs well at all apertures. It is a fantastic wide angle zoom option for full frame shooters but also a popular option for wedding photographers who shoot with crop sensor cameras (with autofocus motors).

almost new but dust particle inside
Used item described as clean almost new, in fact looks and feels like new, but there is a big pet-hair-like particle inside rear element. Too bad because it really seems to work like new.

Okay so I've never had the real money to actually buy it so each time I've rented the lens. Perhaps the fact that it was a rental could have effected the outcome of my images, but at this point, lets assume that I had actually bought it.
Pros:
- Produces good image quality, Contrary to what other people believe, I think the weight is really nice
- Gives my camera a center of mass and balance
Cons:
- Terrible auto focus
- I don't know what 17-35 you're using because this one's auto focus is horrendous
