Video reviews

The lens was introduced in July 2015. It is positioned as a professional version of the Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 16-85mm f / 3.5-5.6G ED VR zoom, as indicated by a gold ring on the body near the front lens.

"Chips"

For the first time among the line of optics designed for Nikon cropped DSLRs, two significant “chips” from full-frame representatives migrated to the lens: an electromagnetic diaphragm and a nanocrystalline lens coating. The first update allows you to increase the speed of the 7-blade diaphragm through the built-in electromagnetic mechanism, and the second one minimizes light reflections from elements inside the lens.

Definition

In terms of focal lengths, the Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 16-80mm f/2.8-4E ED VR is a versatile glass that can perform in most scenes. The floating aperture does not cause inconvenience, as its values are enough even for shooting in low light conditions. The merit of the clarity of the frame is the built-in stabilizer, which allows you to compensate for up to 4 exposure steps.

Quality

The design of the lens has 17 elements in 13 groups. The whole thing is enclosed in a high-quality case. The front lens is additionally coated with a fluorine coating that repels dirt and prevents fingerprints from collecting. The total weight of the entire structure does not exceed half a kilogram, so after a day of filming, your neck and hands will thank you.

Peculiarities

But without a "fly in the ointment" still not done. When shooting at minimum focal lengths, users blame the distortion of the geometry of objects in the frame, at the maximum — for a slight "blurring" of the picture at the most open apertures. These shortcomings are insignificant and are corrected during post-processing of photographs.

Faithful comrade

The lens covers the most commonly used focal lengths. Therefore, he will become a faithful companion for those who are looking for a solution for all occasions.
