he newest addition to
Nikon’s world-class NIKKOR
lens lineup, the DX NIKKOR
series was developed in
response to the demands of
professional and advanced
amateur digital SLR users for
higher optical performance.
The popularity of Nikon’s digital
SLRs has risen significantly,
and Nikon has answered with
the kind of innovation you’d
expect from a world leader in
optical technology.
N
ikon created the DX
NIKKOR series to provide
Nikon DX-format digital SLR
owners with
greater wideangle
covering power
. Mounting a
35mm format 14mm widean-
gle lens, for example, onto a
digital camera would result in a
picture angle equivalent to that
of a 21mm lens — negating the
benefit of wideangle coverage.
DX NIKKOR, the first inter-
changeable lenses designed
specifically for use with
Nikon DX-format digital
SLRs
, give owners wideangle
shooting capability in a com-
pact, lightweight package.
N
ikon offers eleven DX
NIKKOR lenses—
various
Zoom-NIKKOR lenses
and
the 10.5mm Fisheye
—to
cover a range of shooting situ-
ations. In addition to lenses with
popular zoom ranges, the line-
up includes newer zoom lens-
es with
telephoto ranges that
extend up to 200mm
(equiva-
lent to 300mm in 35mm for-
mat). The 18-200mm lens
offers an astonishing
11.1x
zoom power.
