Nikon AF-S Nikkor 28mm f/1.8G - Nikon F Mount

The AF-S Nikkor 28mm f/1.8G is a high-performance wide-angle prime featuring Nikon’s Nano Crystal Coat to reduce ghosting and flare. It is designed for full-frame F-mount cameras but functions equally well on DX bodies. The f/1.8 aperture makes it a strong choice for environmental portraits and low-light landscape photography. Despite its wide aperture, the lens remains relatively lightweight and portable, using a combination of high-quality plastics and a metal mount. When buying second-hand, pay attention to the focus ring's travel; it should be dampened and consistent. The Nano Crystal Coat is durable, but the front element should still be checked for any micro-scratches that could affect contrast. SDS technicians verify the Silent Wave Motor's operation and check for any internal dust. Ensure the rear baffle is intact and that the bayonet mount shows no signs of excessive wear or misalignment from heavy use.
