Review on Nikon 17-55mm f/2.8G IF-ED Zoom Lens with Auto Focus - Ideal for Nikon DSLR Cameras by Cam Vi ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Full compliance with the manufacturers assurances, high quality.

We are waiting for a new version with a new optical design. Do not forget about moving the flash from the camera to a stand / tripod, especially by 17mm and with a lens hood, otherwise there will be a shadow at the bottom of the frame - this goes without saying, I just remind you, saving your shutter. Some pros: Decent lens. Solves many problems. It warms the soul that this is the only 17-55 in the world and generally the only one among zoom models with a range from 16 (172022) to 50 (52, 55, 60) that has true weather protection ▬ all movements either inside the case or under the hood. A competitor could not reproduce this. In extreme cases, you can use it on FX (not at all focal lengths) - it gives some vignetting that is easy to remove. The tasks of reporting, filming in bad weather, and even a good macro lens (with a 3D lens) solve perfectly. • solid construction • strong good and practical lens hood • 9 petals - but you can not write it, because we have a completely professional model • Gives a "large zoom" - more viewing angles than the 24-70 set on the FX, while delivering the same high-quality picture. Let this be due to the slightly less sharp 55mm - but it is ideal to use them for some portraits just because of the "softness". • FX 17-55 can also work. Has some cons Pleases everyone - but there is no new version for a long time. Even sharper yet lighter.

Having tried a bunch of fixes and zooms (Nikkor of course) it surpasses 17-55 / 2.8 / 2,8 17-55 / 2,8 I don't regret buying.
