Nikon AF-S Nikkor 28mm f/1.8G
The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 28mm f/1.8G is a capable but quite pricey prime lens that will appeal most to landscape and architecture shooters who routinely stop their lenses down or those photographers looking for lovely out-of-focus bokeh effects from a wider-angle perspective.

Within the year 2010, Nikon added three very fast f1.4 AF-S lenses into its lineup: 24mm, 35mm, and 85mm. While two of them are fine wide angle lenses, they all cost $1600 and up.

Nikon Nikkor AF-S 28 mm f/1.8G
From some time now Nikon has been expanding its line of their different full frame fixed-focal lenses by presenting their new versions. Lately we've seen the launches of such instruments as: 1.4/24, 1.4/35, 1.4/50, 1.4/85, 1.8/50 and 1.8/85. Also the 28 mm instrument joined that wave.
Pros:
- very good image quality in the frame centre
- good or decent image quality on the edge of the frame
- slight lateral chromatic aberration
- well-corrected distortion
- negligible astigmatism
- low coma on the APS-C/DX sensor
- quick
- silent and accurate autofocus
Cons:
- slack on the focusing ring
- very high longitudinal chromatic aberration
- significant spherical aberration
- high coma in the corners of full frame
- significant vignetting on full frame
