 Nikon AF-S Nikkor 28mm f/1.8G lens : Nikon announces a new fast aperture wide-angle prime lens - the AF-S Nikkor 28mm f/1.8G. A welcome addition to Nikon’s range of FX-format prime lenses, the Nikon AF-S Nikkor 28mm f/1.8G boasts a new optical design that makes it a perfect match for today’s high-resolution D-SLRs. Its large (f/1.8) aperture delivers sharper shots in low light and enables wonderfully smooth bokeh. The new optical construction results in beautifully rendered images. Fast and compact, the Nikon AF-S Nikkor 28mm f/1.8G lens is a great choice for photographers who want to shoot wide-angle images, and get the best out of a high-resolution D-SLR. The 28mm focal length is ideal for shooting in confined spaces, capturing stunning vistas or photographing cityscapes and street scenes.

Hiromasa Sebata Product Manager, Professional Products at Nikon UK says “The new 28mm adds to Nikon’s growing line up of popular wide-angle lenses, bridging the gap between the 24mm and 35mm Nikkor lenses perfectly. The 28 mm focal length benefits from improved optical construction to control unwanted distortion. This highly anticipated lens is a practical choice for every kit bag.”
Nikon 28mm lens design
The large f/1.8 aperture delivers sharper shots in low light and achieves a perfect balance of sharpness and bokeh, singling out subjects beautifully. The fast aperture also provides a bright viewfinder image. Equipped with a brand new optical design, the Nikon AF-S Nikkor 28mm f/1.8G supports the increasing resolution of modern D-SLRs with sharp, beautifully rendered stills and movies. Two aspherical lens elements effectively minimize aberrations and correct the distortion that can occur with a wide angle of view. Nikon’s exclusive Nano Crystal Coat reduces ghost and flare, and Silent Wave Motor (SWM) ensures discreet but accurate autofocus.
Compact and durable Nikon 28mm lens
With a weather sealed mount and weighing just 330g, the AF-S Nikkor 28mm f/1.8G is a solid yet lightweight and compact option that will fit easily into any kit bag. Compatible with Nikon FX-format D-SLRs, it offers a 42 mm (equivalent) focal length when used with Nikon DX-format D-SLRs and is fully compatible with entry-level models that do not have a built-in autofocus motor.
