Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 18-35mm f/3.5-4.5G ED camera kit

Wide-angle zoom for FX DSLR

The Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 18-35mm f/3.5-4.5G ED is a versatile wide-angle to standard zoom lens designed for FX-format DSLR cameras. It covers focal lengths from 18 mm to 35 mm with a variable maximum aperture of f/3.5 to f/4.5. The lens weighs 385 grams and features Nikon's Silent Wave Motor for fast, quiet autofocus with seamless manual override. It includes extra-low dispersion and aspherical elements plus Super Integrated Coating to reduce aberrations and flare.

Suited to travel and architecture photographers

This lens suits photographers who need a lightweight wide-angle zoom for travel, architecture, landscape and everyday shooting on FX or DX DSLR bodies. Its compact design and quiet focusing also serve HD video work well. Buyers who need a faster constant aperture throughout the zoom range or who require telephoto reach beyond 35 mm should consider other options. Photographers using mirrorless Z-mount cameras without an adapter cannot use this F-mount lens directly.

18-35mm focal range decides fit

The 18 mm to 35 mm focal range is the single specification that determines whether this lens matches your needs. It defines the wide-angle to standard perspective available for FX sensors and the equivalent narrower field of view on DX bodies. If your subjects demand wider coverage than 18 mm or longer reach than 35 mm, this focal range will not cover those shooting scenarios.
