Enjoy a wider angle of view with the Nikon 12-24mm autofocus
zoom lens, which is optimized for Nikon digital SLR cameras. The
lens offers such features as a 2x zoom ratio, an exclusive Silent
Wave Monitor that allows for accurate and quiet high-speed
autofocusing, two Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass elements for
minimized chromatic aberration, and three aspherical lens
elements for low distortion. Nikon's D-type design, meanwhile,
provides precise distant information for the flash and ambient
light exposure processes. Perhaps the nicest feature, however, is
the small image circle--the size of the image that's projected by
the lens onto the sensor--which produces an optimal image from
the center to the edge to the corner. Other details include a
variable angle of view from 99 degrees (at 12mm) to 61 degrees
(at 24mm), a rounded diaphragm that makes out-of-focus elements
appear more natural, and an 11.8-inch close focus distance
throughout the zoom range. All Nikon lenses carry a five-year
warranty.

From the Manufacturer
---------------------
Lens making is an art Nikon artisans craft Nikkor optics from
the finest materials, taking pride in adding their intellect and
technique to bring the world's finest lenses to life. They push
the leading edge of lens making, harder and harder, in their
effort to provide the "glass" that makes the world's greatest
pictures.
Features include:
* Designed for Nikon D-Series digital SLR
* Design enables a combination of wider angle-of-view with
optical characteristics that are optimized for Nikon digital SLR
camera sensors
* 2x Zoom ratio and variable angle-of-view from 99 degrees at
12mm to 61 degrees at 24mm. Comparable to that of an 18-36mm lens
on 35mm size sensor format
* Nikon design that produces a smaller image circle (the size of
the image that is projected by the lens on to the sensor)
enabling smaller lens diameter, and optimal image quality from
center-to-edge-to-corner on the image
* Exclusive Silent Wave Motor enables ultra-high-speed
autofocusing with exceptional accuracy and powerful super-quiet
operation
* 2 Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass elements for minimized
chromatic aberration
* 3 Aspherical lens element for low distortion
* Internal Focusing (IF) design for smoother focusing and great
body balance
* M/A mode enables instant sw from autofocus to manual
with virtually no time lag even during AF servo operation
* Nikon D-type design provides precise distance information for
flash and ambient light exposure processes
* Rounded diaphragm to make out-of-focus elements appear more
natural
* DX Nikkor is designed exclusively for use with Nikon Digital
SLR models
* 11.8 close focusing distance throughout zoom range
