Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8G ED Lens
Professional Standard Zoom – Constant f/2.8 Aperture, Silent Wave Motor (SWM), Nano Crystal Coat & ED Optics (Includes Caps & Hood / Excellent Condition with Minor Internal Dust)

The Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8G ED is a professional standard zoom lens engineered for full-frame FX-format and DX-format Nikon F-mount cameras. Featuring a bright, constant f/2.8 maximum aperture across its entire focal range, this optic offers subject isolation, shallow depth-of-field control, and reliable low-light performance for photojournalism, portraiture, events, and everyday shooting.

Optically, the lens incorporates three Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass elements alongside three precision Glass Molded Aspherical (GMA) elements to minimize chromatic aberrations, color fringing, spherical distortion, and field curvature. A combination of Nano Crystal Coat and Super Integrated Coating (SIC) suppresses internal reflections, flare, and ghosting under harsh overhead or backlit lighting. Powered by a Silent Wave Motor (SWM) and an Internal Focus (IF) mechanism, it delivers fast, quiet, and precise autofocus with full-time manual focus override while keeping the overall lens length fixed during focusing. A rounded 9-blade diaphragm produces smooth, natural background blur.

CONDITION DIAGNOSTICS & PHYSICAL NOTES

Physical & Cosmetic Status: EXCELLENT CONDITION. The metallic lens barrel, rubber grip rings, and bayonet mount exhibit minimal cosmetic surface wear, reflecting light care and handling.

Internal Optics: MINOR INTERNAL DUST. Light internal dust specks are present within the optical housing, which is typical for pre-owned zoom lenses; practical testing confirms zero impact on optical resolution, contrast, or image capture.

Mechanical & Electronic Status: FULLY FUNCTIONAL. Silent Wave Motor autofocus tracking, zoom ring torque, aperture control, and manual focus override function properly.

Included Accessories: INCLUDES CAPS & HOOD. Comes equipped with the front lens cap, rear lens cap, and dedicated lens hood.
