Nikon Camera Lens, Nikon Digital Camera Lens Reviews

Nikon is one of the top makers of both digital SLR cameras and compact digital cameras in all categories. They also had a huge history in film photography as well.

One thing that made their company stand out is the way they designed their lenses.

Even now in a world of digital photography, manufacturers continue to make all kinds of revolutionary lenses to suit different photographers for different occasions.

There is always a right lens for the right job and a few lenses that can do all kinds of jobs at a slightly lesser quality and a little heavier price tag.

Importance must be given to the lens quality, how it handles elements that affect the image such as distortion, chromatic aberration, as well as the overall build quality as these expensive lenses need to be well protected for them to last before any replacement is needed. Here are some of the most popular models that Nikon currently offers in the market.

Nikon Camera Lens #1: Nikon 200mm f/2G ED-IF AF-S VR

Nikon 200mm f/2G ED-IF AF-S VR.jpg Coming from the telephoto category, the Nikon 200mm f/2G ED-IF AF-S VR NIKKOR lens is a beast and it tops the other 5 telephoto lenses in focal length, speed, image stabilization, and price.

Currently priced at just above $4,000, the 200mm lens is primarily designed for sports photography and professional portrait shooting.

Low-light doesn't get in the way with this model and the f/2G specification shows that it can put subjects into focus very quickly and the Silent Wave Motor that is part of the lens makes it operate quietly.

Combined with the Internet Focusing design, focusing is much smoother as well. Quality is attained through the Super ED glass that corrections aberration and reduces dispersion. Overall, images look excellent and the performance is fast all at the cost of bulkiness and heaviness.
