Manufacturer Description
Lens-making is an art--Nikon artisans craft Nikkor optics
from the finest materials, taking pride in adding their intellect and
technique to bring the world's finest lenses to life. They push the
leading edge of lens-making in their effort to provide the "glass" that
makes the world's greatest pictures.
AF Nikkor lenses work with Nikon SLRs for optimal performance, even the
very latest. The Nikon 28mm f2.8D AF Nikkor is a compact, lightweight
wide-angle lens constructed with superb optical design for
architecture, wedding and landscape photography. It features 74-degree
(53-degree with Nikon DX format) picture coverage with edge-to-edge
sharpness. It also weighs an exceptionally light 7.4 ounces and boasts
a 0.85-foot close focusing distance.
Nikon Super Integrated
Coating ensures exceptional performance
To enhance the performance of its optical lens elements,
Nikon employs an exclusive multilayer lens coating that helps reduce
ghost and flare to a negligible level. Nikon Super Integrated Coating
achieves a number of objectives, including minimized reflection in the
wider wavelength range and superior color balance and reproduction.
Nikon Super Integrated Coating is especially effective for lenses with
a large number of elements, like our Zoom-Nikkors. Also, Nikon's
multilayer coating process is tailored to the design of each particular
lens. The number of coatings applied to each lens element is carefully
calculated to match the lens type and glass used, and also to assure
the uniform color balance that characterizes Nikkor lenses. This
results in lenses that meet much higher standards than the rest of the
industry.
Distance information
D-type and G-type Nikkors relay subject-to-camera distance
information to AF Nikon camera bodies. This then makes possible
advances like 3D Matrix Metering and 3D Multi-Sensor Balanced
Fill-Flash. Note: D-type and G-type Nikkors provide distance
information to the following cameras: Auto exposure; F6, F5, F100,
F90X, F80, F75, F70, F65, F60, F55, F50, Pronea S, Pronea 600i, D2
series, D1 series, D100 and D70s/D70. Flash control; F6, F5, F100,
F90X, F80, F75, F70, D2 series, D1 series, D100, and D70s/D70 cameras.
