With the NIKKOR lens, you have access to the focusing mode. It can be used to switch from automatic to manual focus minus the lag time. All you have to do is turn the focus ring on the lens. As a result, one can switch from manual focusing while at the same time looking through the viewfinder.
Only the internal lens shifts when focusing. As a result, the Nikon Nikkor AF-S DX 12-24mm F4 G IF-ED does not change in size, while it is being operated. This makes it more compact and it can focus closely on distance. The lens is designed with the symbols IF on the barrel.

Nikon's 12-24mm has a constant maximum aperture of f/4 through the entire zoom range, stopping down to f/22. On a Nikon D-SLR with a 1.5x focal length multiplication, it has a 35mm equivalent of 18-36mm, offering plenty of wide-angle coverage.
Nikon 12-24mm f/4G DX AF-S
18-36mm lenses have long been many photographers' standard short zooms for full-frame shooting. Here's the equivalent of that range in a 1.5X 35mm lens factor for small-format digital Nikon SLRs only. Small DX image circle allows compact size with constant aperture.

Nikon AF-S 12-24mm f/4G ED-IF DX Review
This is a very nicely designed and comfortable lens to use. The zoom ring is furthest forward, has a reassuring high-grip surface and offers just the right amount of resistance so that the lens can be zoomed with a light fingertip touch.- Superb ergonomics
- Slight softness at times
Nikon 12-24 DX
The lens is a must if you use a Nikon DX camera as Nikon make no wide angle prime DX lenses, i've owned the 10.5 fisheye but its very hard to take a decent picture as the lens bends any straight lines,(which it is designed to do). The 12-24 used on my old D80 and now my D2x gives excellent results.

While I hope to create a full Nikon 12-24mm f/4G AF-S DX Lens, my first priority is to include results from this lens in the lens comparison tools available on the site.

I purchased this lens used and had problems with really unsharp corners. I did some testing and determined the lens was de-centered. Sent it in to Nikon for repair and it came back better, but I still think the corners are soft at the wide end, even when well stopped down.
- Very good resistance to flare
- great color and contrast
- sharp everywhere at long end and in center at short end
- Corners at short end are soft
- doesn't focus nearly close enough
