Nikon AF-S Nikkor 24mm f/1.4G ED Review
The AF-S Nikkor 24mm f/1.4G ED is a fast wide-angle lens for Nikon SLRs, but it's expensive. The AF-S Nikkor 24mm f/1.4G ED ($1,999.95) is a fast wide-angle lens for Nikon SLRs. It's the widest f/1.4 prime in the Nikkor lens family, and can focus close so you can capture images with a shallow depth of field. If you're looking for a fast wide-angle lens, it's a solid choice, but one that comes with a premium price tag. If you're willing to sacrifice some light-gathering capability, the AF-S Nikkor 24mm f/1.8G ED ($676.95 at Amazon) is a solid alternative that's far less expensive. If you don't want to sacrifice the f/1.4 aperture, look at the Sigma 24mm F1.4 DG HSM Art ($849.00 at Amazon) , which earns Editors' Choice marks thanks to its mix of performance and price. DesignThe Nikkor 24mm ($1,796.95 at Amazon) measures 3.5 by 3.3 inches (HD), weighs about 1.4 pounds, and supports 77mm front filters. The barrel is finished in black polycarbonate with gold accents, with a rubberized manual focus ring and a single toggle switch that turns the autofocus system on or off. A re...
Pros:
- Wide f/1.4 maximum aperture
- Captures crisp images
- 9.8-inch close focus
- Full-frame coverage
Cons:
- Dim corners at wide aperture
- Edge softness at f/1.4
- Shows some barrel distortion
- Not stabilized
- Pricey

Nikkor AF-S 24mm f/1.4 G ED (DX) - Review / Lab Test Report
The Nikkor AF-S 24 f/1.4 is an impressive lens. At large apertures it produces very sharp images in the image center with somewhat soft corners wide open, but stopped down it shows very good to excellent sharpness across the whole (DX) frame. Distortion is very low and CAs are moderate.

Nikon 24mm 1.4
The Nikon 24mm F1.4 is a dream lens to use. Its centre sharpness is extraordinary with great edge sharpness from about F4 onwards. The build quality is typical Nikon pro level and the focus is swift and quiet.

Nikon AF-S 24mm f/1.4G
The most obvious reasons to buy this wideangle Nikon lens hinge on its ultra-fast f/1.4 maximum aperture, which offers unparalleled low-light capabilities and the ability to record a narrow depth-of-field despite the sweeping angle-of-view that a 24mm lens provides.

JUST GET IT!
It is about time Nikon gave us a pro quality 24mm lens. You can toss out your 28mm and 35mm lenses and just use the 24 f1.4! I love wide and this is the best Nikon has ever come up with. Clean, sharp, saturated color in low light, hand held! JUST GET IT!
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Fast / accurate auto-focus
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- Heavy

My favorite lens!
My lust for this lens began last spring, when I tested it at Nikon's Ginza showroom in Japan. I promised myself I would own this beauty in the not too distant future. Fast forward five months and I finally got the lens in hand. Honestly, I did run into some focus issues.
