Photozone reviews the Nikon AF-S 14-24/2.8: a phenomenal lens

Klaus Schroiff has posted a review of the new Nikon AF-S 14-24/2.8 lens on his respected Photozone site – and it looks good.

“The Nikkor AF-S 14-24mm f/2.8G ED N is a phenomenal lens. It is the sharpest ultra-wide angle lens tested to date. The resolution figures are simply stunning and unprecedented specifically at 14mm and that’s straight from the maximum aperture setting.”

Michael Weber’s review of the new AF-S 400/2.8 VR

Michael Weber has posted his review of the new Nikkor AF-S 400/2.8 VR, the only flaw he could find was the tripod mount, but that’s nothing really new at Nikon 🙂

D3 and 14-24mm sample images

There are some new D3 pictures, most interesting is that they are made with the new 14-24 Nikkor

Nikon AF-S 200mm f/2 G IF-ED

I have to begin my list of Nikons best lenses with the one I personally like the most, the famous Nikkor 200/2 lens. Compared to other tele primes it’s rather small and light (at least at 2,9 kg it’s lighter than other primes) and it’s bokeh is gorgeous. And the fast f/2.0 really help’s a lot when you are an available light fan like I am. Even with teleconverts the lens delivers good results. While far from cheap it’s worth every penny.
