    • Minimum Focal Length: 16 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
    • Maximum Focal Length: 85 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)

Lens Buying Guide

  • Compatible with Nikon DX DSLR cameras: Works with any Nikon DX camera with an F-Bayonet mount. Also compatible with FX cameras in DX crop mode.
  • Standard zoom lens for versatile use: Choose the shot you want with a flexible lens that offers a range of focal lengths to meet the majority of your photo needs.
  • 16–85mm focal length: Broad range from wide-angle to portrait-length telephoto for the best shot.
  • f/3.5 maximum aperture: Creates sharp, detailed images with a slightly blurred background at close range. Performs best in moderate-to-bright light settings or outdoors on overcast days.
  • Vibration Reduction image stabilization: Allows you to shoot at shutter speeds up to 3.5 stops slower without image blur. Ensures dramatically sharp still images and HD video capture, even for handheld shooting.
  • SWM (Silent Wave Motor) ensures smooth, precise focusing: Utilizes ultrasound vibrations to focus the lens, resulting in smooth, silent and precise autofocusing.
  • Aspherical lens corrects aberration: Precision-ground lens focuses the light rays into a single point to reduce aberration and produce high-quality images.
  • ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass for superior image quality: Effectively corrects chromatic aberration for optimum lens performance.
  • M/A focusing mode: Allows you to switch from manual to automatic with virtually no lag time, by simply turning the focusing ring on the lens.
  • Internal Focus for fast, smooth autofocusing: Allows for a more compact, lightweight construction and a closer focusing distance without changes in the lens barrel length.
  • Advanced lens coating for improved optics: Nikon Super Integrated Coating minimizes ghosting and flare and ensures consistent color balance for true-to-life images.
  • Accommodates 67mm filters: Compatible with screw-on filter types.
  • Accessories included: Comes with a hood, lens caps (front and rear) and case.
