Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8G AF-S ED NIKKOR
Lightbulb Rentals offers the AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8G ED from Nikon, a versatile standard zoom lens renowned for its bright and sophisticated optical design. Designed for FX-format F-mount cameras, it also provides a 36-105mm equivalent focal length range on DX-format models.
Key features include a constant f/2.8 maximum aperture, which ensures consistent performance and illumination across the zoom range. This aperture is beneficial for low-light conditions and enables precise control over depth of field, making it ideal for selective focus techniques. The lens incorporates three precision glass molded aspherical elements and three extra-low dispersion elements, effectively minimizing spherical and chromatic aberrations to deliver high sharpness and clarity.
For enhanced image quality, Nikon has applied both Nano Crystal Coat and Super Integrated Coating technologies to reduce flare, ghosting, and internal reflections, thereby improving contrast and color accuracy, especially in challenging lighting situations. The lens features a Silent Wave Motor for fast, precise autofocus performance, complemented by full-time manual focus override, catering to both still photography and video applications.
The internal focusing mechanism ensures that only the internal lens groups move during focusing, maintaining the lens’s overall length and promoting faster autofocus speeds. A rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to smooth bokeh, enhancing the aesthetic quality of out-of-focus backgrounds and supporting shallow depth of field techniques.
