Features
Overview: The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 28mm f/1.8G
lens is a fixed focal length lens with a natural wide angle view, and a fast f/1.8
aperture. It is ideal for general close-ups, delicate flowers, detailed
collectibles, copy photography, portraits, and landscapes.
Rear Focusing System: This lens utilizes the Rear Focusing
System, a system in which only the rear lens group moves during focusing, thus
eliminating changes in the physical length of the lens. This allows for faster
focusing.
Super Integrated Coating: Nikon's Super Integrated Coating
enhances light transmission efficiency and offers superior color consistency and
reduced lens flare.
Nano Crystal Coating: The lens has a Nano Crystal Coating, a
coating that eliminates lens element reflections and reduces ghosting and flare
for even greater image clarity.
Silent Wave Motor (SWM): The exclusive Nikon Silent Wave
Motor (SWM) enables fast, accurate, and quiet auto focus.
Focus Mode Switch: The Focus Mode switch on the barrel of
the lens lets you easily switch between manual focus and auto focus. If you want
to enable auto focusing, the camera must be set to Auto Focus, and the switch on
the lens needs to be set to "M/A". With most Nikon D-SLRs, the lens gives you a
manual override option, allowing you to rotate the separate focus ring while
pressing the shutter release halfway.
Diaphragm: The lens is equipped with a rounded 7-blade
diaphragm.
Lens Hood: The lens comes with the HB-64 bayonet-type lens
hood. The hood adds approximately 1-1/2" to the overall length of the lens. You
can invert the hood and snap it onto the lens for storage, if desired.
