Press Release - Tuesday, 14 April 2009
Nikon UK is pleased to announce the
introduction of the AF-S DX NIKKOR 10-24MM F/3.5-4.5G ED
lens, a NIKKOR DX-format ultra-wide-angle zoom lens that
boasts a focal range starting at 15mm equivalent in FX/35mm
format.
 At a very affordable price, this new lens offers a superior build quality making it a great addition to anyone’s Nikon system. It is perfect for users wanting to shoot scenes that require a wide angle perspective effect such as in a small room, or for shooting architecture and landscapes. Ludovic Drean, Product Manager for Lenses at Nikon Europe B.V says: “This great new lens is perfectly suited for Nikon D300 and D90 users and works very well with our other mid-class DSLRs too, including models without a built-in motor such as the D40 and the D60, for example. Its affordable price is no reflection on its superior quality, though, as its high-reproduction performance, minimum distortion and build quality are almost equivalent to those of the AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 12-24mm f/4G IF-ED.”
Superior quality build and
excellent reproduction capacity
The AF-S DX NIKKOR 10-24MM F/3.5-4.5G ED
offers a focal length between 10 to 24mm and a picture angle
equivalent to a focal length of 15 to 36 mm in FX/35mm
format. Thanks to its ring-type Silent Wave Motor (SWM), its
autofocus is quiet and fast. Housed in a compact and
lightweight body with Nikon’s unique high-quality exterior
design, the NIKKOR advanced build quality ensures smooth
operation and durability. The optical system features ED
glass and a-spherical lenses optimised for digital SLRs with
an excellent capacity for accurate image reproduction,
delivering high-resolution, high-contrast images whilst
minimising chromatic aberration. Using the internal focusing
(IF) system, the lens barrel length does not change whilst
focusing, giving it a more durable build and allowing for
the use of heavy attachments. The lens also has two focus
modes – M (Manual) and Manual-priority auto (M/A). M/A mode
enables a user to switch rapidly between autofocus and
manual focus by merely rotating the focus ring even during
AF operation. This allows precise focus adjustment without
taking your eye off of the viewfinder.
