On a DX-format camera, it’s zoom range is equivalent to Nikon’s 24-120mm FX lens (35mm format), a staple in many pro camera bags. Level of DX-format performance – Unleash the power of your high-resolution Nikon DSLR. Nano Crystal Coat virtually eliminates glare, while Extra-low Dispersion Glass and Aspherical elements reduce color aberration and enhance sharpness and contrast. Capture vibrant colors, rich tonality and a level of detail that’s staggering. 4 stops of Vibration Reduction – In low light situations, the 16-80mm’s VR image stabilization lets you shoot handheld up to 4 shutter speeds slower to gather more of the available light without causing blur. There’s even a specialized Tripod VR mode, a first for this zoom range*, that eliminates the effects of tripod vibration. High-speed electromagnetic diaphragm – Nikon’s DX and FX DSLRs can freeze action with fast continuous shooting speeds; this lens can keep up. A specialized electromagnetic diaphragm mechanism operates in precise sync with the camera’s shutter for reliable exposure control during high-speed sequences. Nikon’s innovative protective fluorine coat – Making it easier to wipe off water, dirt and smudges, the front and rear lens elements have Nikon’s exclusive fluorine coat. This extraordinary protective coating technology has to be seen to be believed.

Superb travel/walk around zoom lens I purchased this lens from Amazon to go with my D7200. I have mostly been an FX user the last 4 years and currently also own a D750 and D800. My interest in going back to the DX camera and lenses started with using the D7200 as a way to get extra reach for my telephoto lenses such as the Nikkor 80-400mm VR and the newest Nikkor 300mmF4 VR. I was enjoying how well the D7200 worked with these lenses but I no longer had any wide angle “walk around lens” to use with this camera.I did have the Nikkor 24-120mmF4 VR and the 24-85mmF3.5/5.6 VR but those lenses are best suited for the FX format.I purchased the 16-80mmF2.8/4 VR on a whim. Having previously owned the 16-85 version, I hoped that this lens would have the improvements necessary to make it a “keeper”.After a few days of testing and comparisons, I must admit that I will definitely keep this lens!My first test was to compare the 16-80 on my D7200 to the…
Exceptionally Great Lens I have this lens on my Nikon d 7100, and it performs beautifully. Most of my photos are of landscapes, interesting buildings, cities at night, nature (close up, not macro) and sunsets.Although I expected really nice performance from this lens, based on numerous reviews, I am astounded by the sharpness, contrast and wonderful VR. I previously owned the excellent Nikon 17-55 f2.8, but I like the extra reach of this new lens.If you are considering this lens, you might want to take a look at the Flickr group ‘Nikon 16-80’ for images.I’ve also included a few here that I took recently.
