Cons:The yield on D600, cumbersome remove the macro function.
Opinion:It's amazing how the same lens mounted on two different machines changes its performance so radically. On the D3S it is flawless, to always have with you!!! On the discreet D600, often left at home.. How do I make a truthful review with two such different yields? if I have to do an average, I would buy it again... It's always an old lens made Japan.
Cons:Nothing perhaps the hood a bit bulky but you get used to it
Opinion:to an exceptional yield a bit 'soft, in PP 5 seconds and is engraved, really many satisfactions is giving me, unique colors combined with d750 or d800 is magnificent, as all the objectives you need to know them to appreciate them, if you expect that after a day of tests you are surprised, you are wrong, after a day I wanted to make it, then over the days it became the inseparable friend. I advise you to try it given the price and have a little patience and you will be amazed, my sample was like new I think one of the last products from a green reflection the front glass and unlike others has very low trees also excellent in macro with a good magnification ratio.
Cons:Vignette a little especially at 28mm, not constant opening
Opinion:In the past I had the 28-70 and 70-210 of the same series, this lens seems decidedly superior to the first 2 at a more than honest price, it is about € 100 and is worth them all, indeed I would say even more: the colors are natural and types of the af-d series, honest backlight hold, not excessive contrast and right micro contrast, what is surprising is the sharpness also at TA on the entire focal range in the center with a more marked tendency towards the telephoto focal lengths to generate coma (already in the immediate out of focus), it improves a lot aperture at 5.6 on the whole excursion even if the vignetting remains present up to f8 and disappears only at F11 (it is particularly noticeable also at 5.6 at 28mm); The sharpness is also right on my d3x, while on 12mpx the coma is less evident and it is the d3, d3s and d700 that I think are the ideal machines for this lens, where even get to shoot at 12800 ISO does not involve major problems of transmittance or similar; Another interesting aspect is the almost parafocal behavior on the entire focal range, with the exception of a range between 50 and 28mm where probably the internal movements change the focus, this allows in video (still aspect to be verified if usable for the ring a little hard) to make zoom in-out up to 2x (type 105/50mm) with a difference of half a stop of light, at least I'm testing a7s and full HD; Regarding the build quality it is acceptable but not comparable to the fixed of the AF-D series, a lot of good quality plastic that make it a fairly slim and compact optics, with the exception of the elongation of the barrel to 105mm but which holds the inclined positions ... In short, today you take home between 100 and 150 € and it is a more than honest price considering performance and construction, difficult I think to find something better at this price for Nikon with this excursion; finally macro... It is not an apo and suffers especially at aperturte and in the out of focus even here of aberrations (coma) as it is not excessively micro contrasted ... but it is an all-round and non-specialist optics but as far as I'm concerned it's more than good for some non-demanding still life shots; last bokeh aspect... It is not a portrait lens with an important bokeh, but very progressive keeps the subject cohesive with what is around, as described by other users you from what you see and a travel and every day perspective really comfortable, undemanding and versatile; Note the lens is sharp throughout the excursion, in reality climbed the 50mm in the out of focus forward the spherical aberration is very noticeable that in the back focus with a more evident coma and a bit of purple fringing on the blue, especially then on the focal tele eye to focus even if it is enough to already close 5.6 and the lens improves.
Pros:Versatility, quality/price, sharpness, macro function
Cons:Nobody
Opinion:Found at a pawnshop for the insane sum of £70, it became my only accompanying target. I use it on an equally old D700 for family photos and landscapes; he does everything he has to do and he does it well, on the 12 megapixels of the D700 then he goes right to the wedding. Excellent sharpness but not cruel (my specimen yields slightly only to 105 mm, however very usable), decent autofocus even continuously, blurred not annoying, distortion contained at 28 mm, macro-like function very convenient for close-up shots on the fly. It does not weigh and does not clutter. As said by another user, it is an "honest" perspective, and for this reason it is loved.
Pros:colors, sharpness at 28 up to 50, then drops, light and robust, price
Cons:lens hood
Opinion:This humble zoom is the lens I use the most, this is enough to have a place of honor among the fixed emblazoned that I own. I got there after testing a bit of Nikon zoom, from 24-85 G, a super contrasted crap and closed shadows, the 24-120 G a little better but always too hard in yield, to 28-70 D beautiful but heavy and bulky. that I appreciate are the classic colors of the D that here are best expressed without too saturated reds typical of the latest Nikon. Sharpness for my standards excellent at 28mm, then it begins to fade as it stretches, but it is not a problem the sharpness there is where needed and at 105 centrally and still good for portraits, closing obviously improves. an optic that I recommend to those looking for a light and versatile zoom, and that appreciates the yields of past lenses, made of soft contrasts, open shadows, pastel colors without anyone exaggerating, the price and within the reach of anyone, if you can try it and it could surprise you.
