The Nikon 24-70mm is a professional zoom lens of the very best overall quality and represents everything that a first rate DSLR lens should.

Its all metal structure and pleasurable damping of the zoom ring make it a pleasure to use for photographers who appreciate the finer aspects of a nicely made lens.

This lens is ideally cut out for to full frame Nikon FX bodies like the D3, however those photographers making use of DX bodies would also be able to use this lens. Certainly, DX body users would observe the focal length improve by 60% which has both good as well as bad points.

I say bad because the wide end of the lens becomes 36mm as opposed to 24mm which is not actually that wide if you think about it. Then again, the 70mm end becomes 105mm which is a useful, if not telephoto, focal length.

Maybe the very best things about the Nikon 24 70 lens are the excellent picture sharpness through the range and wide open aperture. Be cautioned however - you would pay for this excellent optical performance.

A few Nikon fanatics have complained that the 24-70mm doesn't have a vibration reduction (VR) component, but it should be said that vibration reduction is not really significant in a 24-70mm lens and the highest aperture of f/2.8 makes it effortless to hand hold frequently.

One other thing I have to point out in this Nikon 24 70mm lens review is that the positions of the zoom ring as well as the manual focus ring. The manual focus ring has been positioned in a rather odd position - possibly since Nikon thinks that most photographers would use the lightning quick auto focus system and not even bother with the manual function.

As a result and in the event you like making use of manual focus, you might find that the placement of the manual focus ring needs some getting used to.
