Surprisingly, this $1,700 (street) lens is Nikon's first constant-aperture optic in the very popular, all-purpose, standard zoom category. Both of the company's previous pro and amateur 24-85mm lenses had variable apertures.

I searched a lot on internet for this product and found here that : Price point was very good. Fast delivery. Product condition was very good. Everything alright. thanks

Great FX lens for any event. This is my 2nd f2.8 24-70 mm . The first one stays on my D700 and the new one will be used when needed on my D3X. You will never go wrong with this lens. Another great lens I use that gets no ink is the Nikon f2.0 105 DC. All I can say about this lens is WOW![...

The Nikon 24-70mm 2.8 is a great all purpose lens. 1. Super Sharp and contrasty 2. Focuses very fast in all lighting conditions 3. Focuses Close to Subject 4. Has best Bokeh of mid range zoom 5. Built like a tank The only con is distortion at 24mm (however easily fixed in post processing).

This is one amazing lens. The prize tag is high but I find it to be worth every penny that I have to work to own it. The focus is fast and the shots are sharp even in low light and even without the long reach I can crop without much loss.

Since I have bought this lens in 2008, I have been just blown away by its autofocus speed. This remarkable lens is superb as an all around lens, a bit heavy but I compensated by getting a power grip to counteract its weight and its balance.

It's very sharp, plus its nano coating its a great bonus; For its price I recommend a lens filter to protect the front element

Please use a power grip to counter balance its weight and holdability

While I hope to create a full Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8G AF-S Lens, my first priority is to include results from this lens in the lens comparison tools available on the site.

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Heavy; High cost

This lens is awesome, it has become the lens that is on the camera most of the time because of it's "just right" range. It is pricey, but you know you get what you pay for. Best Buy is a good place to buy it because they are an Authorized Nikon Dealer so it comes with the USA warranty, they offer...

Well made; super fast; sharp; nice balance on pro dslr

expensive; but worth it
