- Minimum Focal Length: 24 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: 70 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.)

- Owner's manual
A: Nikon operates factories all over the globe and each operates to the same high standard. However, the AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8G ED Standard Zoom Lens is only made in Japan. Therefore, the AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8G ED Standard Zoom Lens that you purchased today will be Japan made.
Q: is this lens compatible with d5300?
A: Yes all Nikon dslr's use the f mount. Since the 5300 is a crop sensor your focal length will be ~38-112mm
A: I don't know for sure but I think I would use it myself. It is Fast, sharp and has a good reach
Q: does it has VR (vibration reduction)?
A: No it doesn't, but you don't need it. It's not worth the extra money. It's an amazing lens!
Q: Will this work on a Nikon D810 camera?
A: The lens will work with any Nikon DX or FX-format DSLR camera with an F-bayonet mount.
Q: Do you have any idea when this lens might be available again online?
A: It's never a set rule, but my experience in the past has been this: If it's listed as "sold out online", it's rather temporary - maybe 1-2 weeks. However, if it gets the the point of "backordered", it could be 3-5 weeks. I have noticed a lot of great lenses will disappear entirely from the site too - sometimes they come back in a few months, or sometimes they never come back. I would guess in this case you have 1-2 weeks. You can go in store and see if someone can check their ability to order the lens in store too. In rare cases, I have been able to order a lens in store that was listed as sold out online.
Q: Does it work fine with D7000?
A: yes, it will work well. It will give you beautiful results, but keep in mind this is an FX lens, meaning it's built for full-frame. You can get the Nikon 17-55 f2.8 for significantly cheaper and it will give you similar results on your D7000. I would not pay extra for the 24-70 f2.8 unless you planned on upgrading to full-frame in the future (D700 or the new D800 for example)
