The Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8E ED VR is a professional-grade standard zoom lens engineered for full-frame FX-format DSLR cameras. Featuring a constant f/2.8 maximum aperture across the entire 24-70mm focal range, this versatile lens delivers exceptional optical performance for everything from environmental portraits and studio work to weddings, press events and landscape photography. Built with 20 precision glass elements in 16 groups, including unique aspherical extra-low dispersion elements, the lens minimises chromatic aberrations and distortions whilst achieving outstanding sharpness and clarity throughout the zoom range. Vibration Reduction technology provides up to 4 stops of image stabilisation, enabling handheld shooting in low light and at slower shutter speeds without compromising image quality. Engineered for durability and fast performance, the lens features an electromagnetic aperture mechanism for consistent exposure control during high-speed burst shooting, Nano Crystal and Super Integrated Coatings to reduce flare and ghosting, and fluorine treatments on front and rear elements to resist dust, moisture and fingerprints. With an 82mm filter diameter and sophisticated optical architecture refined over decades of professional use, this is the ultimate workhorse zoom for demanding photographers who need one lens to handle any assignment.
