Product Description
Advanced and versatile FX-format standard zoom with VR II image
stabilization.
Covering a versatile wide angle to medium telephoto zoom range, the new AF-S
NIKKOR 24"85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED VR delivers noticeably sharper photos and HD videos
thanks to Nikon's second-generation Vibration Reduction technology (VR II).
Shoot at shutter speeds up to 4-times slower than would otherwise be possible
for greater low-light capability, and enjoy the benefits of Vibration Reduction
during HD video recording"even when using a tripod.
A range of possibilities - Versatile 3.6x standard zoom for brilliant photos
and HD videos
The AF-S NIKKOR 24"85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED VR covers wide-angle and medium
telephoto perspectives, making it a great multipurpose lens for photography and
HD video recording. At its widest focal length (24mm on FX-format D-SLRs, 36mm
on DX-format D-SLRs) it's ideal for travel, landscapes, interiors, group shots
and more. At its longest focal length (85mm on FX-format D-SLRs, 136.5mm on
DX-format D-SLRs), it's ideal for close-ups, portraits, interviews and more.
Razor-sharp, high contrast results - Nikon's VR II Image Stabilization with
Tripod Auto Detect
Nikon's second generation Vibration Reduction technology (VR II) enables
handheld shooting at shutter speeds up to 4-times slower than would otherwise be
possible. That opens up new possibilities for low-light shooting. Slow down the
shutter speed to capture maximum natural light without sacrificing sharpness.
Nikon's VR II also includes tripod detection, which automatically recognizes
when your camera is mounted on a tripod and delivers a specialized VR correction
that is ideal for HD video recording.
Unwavering performance - Nikon innovations for consistent performance
Nikon's innovations in optical design and lens technology have brought forth
a remarkable new generation of NIKKOR lenses with unparalleled versatility. The
AF-S NIKKOR 24"85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED VR is no exception. From its Silent Wave Motor
(SWM) to its Super Integrated Coating (SIC), Extra-low Dispersion Glass Element
(ED) and Aspherical Lens Element Design (AS), the AF-S NIKKOR 24"85mm f/3.5-4.5G
ED VR is an advanced lens that draws peak performance from today's D-SLR and HD-SLR
cameras.
Vibration Reduction
A Nikon in-lens technology that improves image stability by automatically
compensating for camera shake. Lenses that offer VR will feature the
abbreviation VR on the lens barrel.
Silent Wave Motor
AF-S NIKKOR lenses feature Nikons Silent Wave Motor, which represents a
significant advance in AF lens technology.
M/A
Select NIKKOR lenses have a focusing mode which allows switching from
automatic to manual focusing with virtually no lag time by simply turning the
focusing ring on the lens.
AS
AS stands for Aspherical lens elements. This type of lens utilizes
non-spherical surfaces on either one or both sides of the glass in order to
eliminate certain types of lens aberration.
Super Integrated Coating
Nikon Super Integrated Coating is Nikon's term for its multilayer coating of
the optical elements in NIKKOR lenses.
ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) Glass
An optical glass developed by Nikon that is used with normal optical glass
in telephoto lenses to obtain optimum correction of chromatic aberrations.
IF Lens
A NIKKOR lens in which only the internal lens group shifts during focusing.
These lenses will be designated with the abbreviation IF on the lens barrel.
