## Questions & Answers

**Q: What filter are you using for this lens, is a thin filter necessary?  Would appreciate some recommendations, thanks!**
A: I use a thin uv filter mainly for protection of the front element. It works fine! This is a great lens and I think you will enjoy it!  Take care, Doc

**Q: Why is the D700 not listed with the bodies this lens will work on?**
A: I have used it with a D800 and it is one of my all time favorite lenses. The D700 is also a full frame camera and this lens should be stellar. I don't thinik there is a better Nikon WA for the money than the 16-35.

**Q: how good is this len in low light and fast focus?**
A: Any lens is good at low light provided you can obtain focus and leave the shutter open long enough. Focusing speed depends more on the camera body in my opinion and if you have any high contrast areas to focus on. In my experience, this lens focuses more snappily than my large-aperture prime lenses.  I don't know if you're shooting FX or DX, but if you're DX, also consider the 10-24 DX 3.5-4.5 or the 12-24 f/4 DX.  I have the 10-24 for my DX body and it's an excellent lens for a lot less than the FX 16-35 f/4

**Q: hi! I have a nikon D 60 I want to get something of this nature! will this nikon 16-35 mm will this lens work on this camera,, thank you!  J.R.**
A: It depends on your definition of work--it will fit on the D60 and take sharp pictures. But if you are looking for what is considered true wide angle for your DX (crop sensor) D60 camera, a 12-24mm or 10-24mm might be better choices for you. Because of the D60's crop factor, the 10-24 will give approximately the same view on a DX camera as the 16-35 does on an FX (full sensor) camera.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An excellent lens
*by A***A on 10 February 2014*

I spent a long time wondering if buying the Nikon 16-35mm was going to be a wise choice.I had intended going for the Nikon 14-24mm f2.8, I already own the Nikon 24-70mm f2.8 so it seemed at first to be a no brainer given the 14-24mm's reputation for image quality.Then I did some online research, a whole day in the end, and the choice became increasingly less obvious. Opinion was pretty much divided, no one argued the quality of the 14-24mm but in other areas the choice was less clear cut.I decided to go back to the drawing board and re-evaluate how I would be using the lens.The lens was for intended for landscape so the 16-35mm on an FX body was a good focal length for this.I like to shoot in inclement weather, the Nikon 14-24mm's inability to accept filters so having the front element exposed to wind, sand, sea spray and rain without the protection of a UV filter would have been a major concern.The 16-35mm is an f4, so down a stop on the 14-24mm, and unlike many landscape photographers I rarely use a tripod as I find it gets in the way. Photographing whilst standing on slippery wet boulders can be tricky enough without a tripod to send you flying, so I tend to opt for a monopod or hand hold. So the Vibration Reduction had appeal.Also the for me focal length had an advantage, 16-35mm covers a good spectrum of wide angle use. I try to plan for the lens I need before I go out and shoot. Changing lenses in rough weather is not a good idea to me, not only the risk of unwanted debris entering the camera or rear of the lens, but also the risk of dropping it.On this basis I opted for the 16-35mm f4. So how have I found performance?I ran some tests as far as I was able against my Nikon 24-70 f2.8, I took some shots at 24mm and 35mm on both lenses at the same f-stops, f4 and f8 with my Nikon D800 mounted on a tripod. I then blew these up to 300% in PhotoshopCC on a 27 inch monitor. This way exceeded what I would require of the lens.At 35mm the Nikon 24-70mm appeared to have the advantage in terms of edge to edge sharpness, also for some unknown reason the the 16-35mm seemed to loose colour saturation compared to the 24-70mm. At f8 the 16-35mm was better though not the colour. This was simply adjusted in Photoshop.At 24mm the situation reversed and the results were very noticeably better than those from the 24-70mm at both f stops. The colour saturation problem also disappeared.I also ran some tests at 16mm, though I could not make any direct comparisons, the shots were taken in a conservatory with white chairs that had a wicker pattern on them. At f4 there was no real detail on the chairs at the image edges, at f8 the image improved very dramatically with good detail across the entire frame. This improved still further at f11.All images taken at on the Nikon 16-35mm at f8 and viewed at 100% in Photoshop were impeccable.In the field.If I was still having doubts about my choice these did disappear once out in the wilds. This is a lovely lens to use. At first I thought it felt bit light and plastic for a pro Nikon lens, but once on the D800 it felt very well balanced and a very comfortable weight. It is fully weather sealed and suffered no mishaps when shooting close up to water falls despite getting fairly wet.The quality of the images has not disappointed in any way. I think what counts are the results you get in the field, and this lens really delivers, also I experienced no issues at 35mm.Also there is a significant price difference between the 14-24mm and the 16-35mm, large enough in fact to buy another piece of kit.Perhaps if I ever take up interior photography I will take another look at the 14-24mm.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The hype is all true
*by P***D on 16 September 2012*

Hello there,As a full time professional photographer lens purchases are something I do after lots of research and after trying them out first. As a Nikon shooter I have owned 2 copies of the 14-24mm lens which is a truly stunning lens but very heavy and the bulbous end makes it a bit of a pain.A few weeks ago a friend of mine lent me the 16-35mm F4 Nikon Lens, I was dubious at first as its an F4 lens but with the VR I can easily hand hold this lens to around 1/5th of a second hand held, this means I can get amazing tac sharp images even in poor light (I am mainly a wedding photographer) and having used this lens for 3 weddings since owning it, I cant get over how great it is.I have also found that I use this lens a lot more than the 14-24. The 14-24 was great but I only ever used it during the church service or the occasional bridal preparation shot for speeches. The 16-35 stays one of my cameras and gets used throughout the whole day.Let me now address the doubters there, although this lens is an F4, which is in theory a lot slower than a 1.4 or 2.8 lens, at this focal length its not an issue, and at F4 the lens is super sharp, at 5.6 its amazing. The clarity and contrast of the images this lens produces is equal to at the very least my 24-70, 70-200 VR2 and my 85 1.4This is a truly beautiful lens, light compared to other pro lenses it produces really great images and has a more versatile range than the 14-24mmA great lens. I am trying to find something bad to say about the lens but in all honesty I cannot.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Versatile wide lens
*by S***N on 27 August 2015*

Date of purchase: 03/08/2015There are far more detailed reviews here as well as on the net; so I'll keep it simple:1) the 16-35mm is lighter (680g versus 1000g) than the 14-24mm. One can argue that if you're shooting landscape and the lens is mounted on a tripod, the weight doesn't matter. Well, who's going to carry it there? :)2) the 16-35mm is cheaper (£829 versus approx. £1200) than the 14-24mm. That's highly subjective to your budget, but £370 is a considerable sum which can be invested back in your photography gear.3) As if the 14-24mm isn't bulky enough, please Google pictures of the 14-24mm with the Lee filter system; it's an absolute behemoth.4) The 16-35mm range on this is far more practical allowing it to act as a landscape/street photography hybrid. The 2mm loss on the wide end is considerable but at 16mm you are already quite wide. If you are going to lose sleep over the 2mm, then get the 14-24mm, simple as.5) F2.8 to F4 is a full one stop reduction... that's definitely a big deal if you're considering this for night sky photography; if that's the primary use then by all means grab the 14-24mm! However my hypothesis is this is a primarily a landescape lens in which case you'll have a lot more in focus wide open at F4 than at F2.8. It terms of light loss, given that both are likely to be mounted on a tripod (see point above), then really the F2.8 is no longer as a big loss at it first appears (no pun intended).6)The addition of VR may encourage you to use this handheld, a far more enjoyable experience than a tripod/cable release combo.I hope I have convinced you to save yourself and your wallet some serious cash which you can spend on some filters, etcI'll be posting some sample photos following the bank holiday weekend so you can judge the lens sharpness, distortion for yourselves etc
