Review on Nikon 28-80mm f/3.3-5.6G Autofocus Nikkor Zoom Lens - Black (Discontinued by the Manufacturer) - Enhanced SEO by Bruce Willam

One of Nikon's first autozooms. It would be an exaggeration to say that it's spartan, it certainly doesn't have all the features of Nikon's current Nikkor and it doesn't have a distance scale. It's just that the 28-80mm VR zoom range only uses a fast shutter speed. The zoom is quite odd, zooming out at one of the extreme ends of the scale (28 to 50 and 50 to 80). At 50mm it zooms in but it has a really nice lens aesthetic, I really like it. Rest assured it's not a 24-70mm f/2.8g, but neither is $1500 Just a nice little wide-angle to mid-range zoom I've heard Nikon has made a million of these. It's not hard to find filters, caps, boost rings and the like for the 58mm front, smaller Think Tank or Lowepro lens case if you want. As far as build quality goes, everything is plastic except for the glass, but I don't expect to pass it on.
