The 12-24mm f/4G ED-IF AF-S DX is an aultra-wide angle zoom lens for exclusive use with Nikon DX-format Digital SLRs.
The 17-55mm range exceeds 3x zoom to broaden wide angle to medium telephoto photographic possibilities, and the lens maintains fast f/2.8 aperture throughout to make it practical and easy to use. When mounted on a Nikon DX-format digital SLR camera, the picture angle is the equivalent to 25.5 to 82.5mm on a 35mm [135] format camera.
Nikon's exclusive Silent Wave Motor (SWM) ensures fast, quiet autofocus. And the nine-blade rounded diaphragm opening provides a rich, natural look to out-of-focus elements.
With its useful wide range and high quality performance, this compact, lightweight lens will help win a warm place for the Nikon DX format in the hearts of Digital SLR users.
