Our take on the Nikon AF-S DX Zoom-NIKKOR 12-24mm f/4G IF-ED Lens Filter Kit

The AF-S DX Zoom-NIKKOR 12-24mm f/4G IF-ED was Nikon's first ultra-wide zoom built for DX-format DSLRs, giving a field of view close to 18-36mm on full frame. It holds a constant f/4 aperture, uses Silent Wave autofocus and extra-low dispersion glass, and takes 77mm filters. It is a solid choice for landscape, architecture and interior shooters on older DX bodies. Against later wide zooms it is outclassed on sharpness at the edges and lacks image stabilization, and it is not designed for full-frame sensors. This bundle adds a filter kit and a cap keeper to the lens.
