Nikon AF NIKKOR 24mm Pro Reviews

photozone‘s review Edit

The Nikkor AF-D 24mm f/2.8 shows good sharpness in the center wide open with rather soft borders. Stopped down to f/8 however the sharpness is on a very high level across the whole FX image. Unfortunately vignetting is on a rather high level, especially for larger apertures. CAs are also quite pronounced, however they are easy to correct in post processing. Bokeh is not stellar either. Nonetheless, the lens is quite compact and leight-weight and as such a possible option to consider for those who prefer to travel light. As a landscape lens that is used around its sweet spot aperture setting mostly (f/8) the lens delivers very good results (at least after CAs have been removed).

slrgear‘s review Edit

Optically, the lens holds its own, despite showing some signs of age: wide open it shows some corner softness, and chromatic aberration is a problem for Nikon bodies which don't automatically remove it. Nikon bodies which do remove it automatically however, breath new life into the lens, and when stopped down to ƒ/5.6, the lens is extremely sharp.
