 Nikon AF-S Nikkor 16-35mm lens : Nikon Europe announces the AF-S Nikkor 16-35mm F4G ED VR, the world’s first ultra-wide angle zoom lens with VR for FX-format cameras. The new lens offers an affordable and practical proposition for general photography with FX-format cameras such as the D700. The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 16-35MM F4G ED VR is the world’s first ultra-wide angle zoom lens to feature Vibration Reduction technology, providing the ability to shoot at shutter speeds up to four stops slower. The application of VR complements the f/4 maximum aperture when shooting in low light. The Nikon 16-35mm lens is scheduled to go on sale on February 19, 2010.
