Handling and Features Performance Verdict Specification There was a time when a 35mm lens was considered wide. Then the wide angle of choice became the 28mm. Our tastes have clearly continued to widen, as now the 24mm is taking prime position as one of our favourite wide angle focal lengths.

It has a bright aperture for depth of field control and low-light shooting, works with both FX (full-frame) and DX (APS-C) cameras, and covers a very wide-angle field of view. It's an excellent lens in terms of sharpness and distortion control, but corners are noticeably dimmer than the center at wide apertures. That's also true of our favorite 24mm lens, the Sigma 24mm F1.4 DG HSM Art ($791.37 at Amazon) , but the Sigma captures fifty percent more light than the Nikkor when shot wide open, and is also quite sharp, so it remains our Editors' Choice. DesignThe Nikkor 24mm ($746.95 at Amazon)  measures 3.3 by 3.1 inches (HD), weighs 12.5 ounces, and supports 72mm front filters. A reversible lens hood is included, and a gasket surrounds the lens mount, so you can feel comfortable using it inclement weather, assuming that your camera is protected from dust and moisture ...

The Nikkor 1.8G series of lenses offer some really nice performance for the money, but it's safe to say that 3rd party lenses have come a long way in terms of performance over the past few years. Sigma is no exception to this; in fact one could say that it's led the charge.

The lens offers smooth and fast autofocus and a solid amount of light gathering ability with an F1.8 maximum aperture, which makes it one of Nikon's most affordable and best performing wide-angle primes.

The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 24mm f/1.8G ED is a high-quality, compact and affordable wide-angle lens for full-frame Nikon DSLR users. Centre sharpness is good at the maximum aperture, and excellent from f/2.8 onwards, although you need to stop down to f/4 to get acceptable results at the edges of the...

What can you say: shes a gem. Hands down the sharpest lens Ive ever put on a Nikon. Used it with an f100, a D7100 (for a 36mm equiv), and a D810. I always suspected that it had more to offer than crop sensor or 35mm frame are able to resolve. Sure enough, it simply sings on FF.

This is a lens for all seasons. The contrast and resolution is extremely high as compared to other lenses I use, and the color correction is at "top of its class". No purple fringing was noted when shooting into the sun or around backlit highlights, and the contrast wide open is extraordinary.

decent lens. not sharp or that impressive as some claims. I used it with Nikon D7100. maybe if I use it with a full frame camera my opinion might change.
