Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 28mm f/1.4E ED Review

Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 28mm f/1.4E ED Verdict

It's big, it's relatively heavy, it's expensive. But the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 28mm f/1.4E ED is also excellent in every respect. Handling is beautiful, construction quality flawless and the optical performance universally excellent. There is no doubt that Nikon have presented us with a very desirable optic, albeit it at a price. Although the tendency over the years has been for tastes to alter, favouring wider and wider lenses as they began to fall into affordable price brackets, 28mm remains a very useful length. Given the bright maximum aperture of this lens and its fairly wide field of view, in use it actually proves to be very useful for a wide variety of applications.
