    Overview

    The Nikon AF Nikkor 35-70mm f/2.8 is a compact, pro-built lens with excellent sharpness and contrast, especially at 35mm. Its main weaknesses are flare proneness and corner softness wide open. The rotating front element complicates filter use. It suits photographers wanting a durable, affordable f/2.8 zoom for film or FX digital bodies, but not those needing wide coverage or flare resistance.
