AF-S DX NIKKOR LENSES
PHOTO - VIDEO - PRO AUDIO
The latest additions to Nikon’s world-class Nikkor lens line-up, the DX Nikkor series was developed in response to the
demands of professional and advanced amateur digital SLR users for higher optical performance. Nikon created the DX
Nikkor series to provide Nikon DX-format digital SLR users with greater wideangle covering power. Mounting a 35mm
format 14mm wideangle lens, for example, onto a digital camera would result in a picture angle of a 21mm lens—negating
the benefit of wideangle coverage. DX Nikkor, the first interchangeable lenses designed specifically for use with Nikon
DX-format digital SLRs, offer wideangle shooting capability in a compact, lightweight package.
Nikon offers ten DX Nikkor lenses—various zoom lenses and the 10.5mm Fisheye—to cover a range of shooting situations.
In addition to lenses with popular zoom ranges, the lineup includes zoom lenses with telephoto ranges that extend up to
200mm (equivalent to 300mm in 35mm format), including the 18-200mm with an astonishing 11x zoom power.
10.5mm f/2.8G ED Fisheye (NI10.528AF)
Fisheye lens developed exclusively for use with Nikon DX format, it is equivalent to 16mm focal
length on 35mm, providing an ultra wide picture angle of 180° wi th optimal image quality from
center-to edge-to-corner on the image. Minimum focus distance of 5.5˝, or 1.2˝ from the lens
front, makes extreme close-ups possible. Close-Range Correction (CRC) provides high
performance for sharper images when taking pictures up close Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass
element minimizes chromatic aberration. Nikon D-type design provides precise distance
information for flash and ambient light exposure processes. Built-in flower-type lens hood.
Includes soft lens case.................................................................................IMP. 569.95 / USA 589.95
12-24mm f/4G ED-IF (NI12244GAFS)
2x zoom ratio and variable angle-of-view from 99° at 12mm to 61° at 24mm (equivalent to an
18-36mm lens in 35mm). Exclusive Silent Wave Motor enables ultra-high-speed autofocusing
with exceptional accuracy and powerful super-quiet operation. M/A mode enables instant
switching from autofocus to manual with virtually no time lag even during AF servo
operation. Nikon D-type design provides precise distance information for flash and ambient
light exposure processes. Rounded diaphragm to make out-of-focus elements appear more
natural 11.8˝ close focusing distance throughout zoom range. It includes an HB-23 lens hood.

17-55mm f/2.8G IF-ED (NI175528GAF)
Fast, ultra-wide angle zoom lens with Silent Wave Motor, this G-type Nikkor lens has no aperture rings,
and offers easier, virtually mistake-free operation because the aperture does not need to be set to minimum.
Equivalent focal length in 35mm is 25.5-85.5mm. Three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements
minimize chromatic aberration, provide higher resolution and superior contrast. Three aspherical lens
elements minimize distortion, especially at the periphery, for superior optical performance. M/A mode
allows rapid switching between autofocus and manual even during AF servo operation, with virtually
no time lag. Internal Focusing (IF) design for smoother focusing and great body balance. Includes
HB-31 lens hood, CL-1120 soft lens case. Filter size is 77mm ........................IMP. 1179.95 / USA 1199.95

to a 27-82.5mm lens in 35mm format). Silent Wave Motor (SWM) with compact rod-type design enables
ultra-high speed autofocusing with exceptional accuracy and super-quiet operation. Hybrid aspherical
element ensures high resolution and contrast. Focus Mode switch enables quick-switching between A
(Autofocus) and M (Manual Focus). 7-blade rounded diaphragm for more natural out-of-focus highlights.
Nikon Super Integrated Coating minimizes ghosting and flare to provide even higher contrast and
more vivid images, even in challenging light conditions. Filter size is 52mm....IMP. 149.95 / USA 169.95
