Introducing the Nikon DX AF-S 16-85mm F3.5-5.6 G
The Nikon DX AF-S 16-85mm F3.5-5.6 G features a 5.3 X zoom and a focal length range from 16 to 85 mm. This highly versatile lens covers a wide variety of shooting situations. This powerful 5.3x zoom lens with a focal length range of 16-85 mm (24×36 equivalent: 24-127.5 mm) is ideal for successful photos on every occasion, from portraits and interiors to architecture and landscapes.
Equipped with second-generation Vibration Reduction (VR II) and Nikon's exclusive Silent Wave Motor (SWM), it delivers outstanding low-light performance, providing both sensor and viewfinder with stable images, and guarantees fast, silent autofocus. Allowing sharper handheld shots and shutter speeds up to 4 times slower, it's the ideal lens for today's high-definition SLRs.
The JAA-800-DA zoom lens, designed specifically for Nikon DX-format digital SLRs, offers outstanding optical performance. ED (extra-low dispersion) and aspherical glass lenses minimize distortion phenomena such as chromatic aberration and astigmatism. The result: ultra-high definition and perfect contrast. Nikon's anti-reflective coating (SIC) considerably reduces spurious scattering and delivers impeccable color reproduction. Compatible with 67 mm diameter filter mounts.
