Nikon AF-S Nikkor 28mm f/1.4E ED - Nikon F Mount

The AF-S Nikkor 28mm f/1.4E ED is a premium wide-angle prime lens designed for high-resolution F-mount DSLRs. Part of Nikon's 'Gold Ring' series, it features an electromagnetic diaphragm for consistent exposures during high-speed bursts and two ED glass elements to control chromatic aberration. Its fast f/1.4 aperture allows for excellent subject separation and performance in low-light environments, making it a favourite for wedding and reportage photography. When purchasing a used 28mm f/1.4E, we verify the electronic aperture operation across the full range of f-stops. The focus ring should move smoothly without any mechanical resistance. We pay close attention to the rear mount and front element for signs of heavy professional use, and ensure the lens displays the expected sharpness wide open, as these complex optical designs must be perfectly aligned.
