Nikon 12-24mm f/4 G DX AF-S ED-IF Zoom-Nikkor Lens with UV Filter + Accessory Kit

A versatile wide-angle zoom perspective.

This Nikkor 12-24mm f/4G DX AF-S autofocus zoom lens, designed exclusively for use with Nikon's DX-format, provides a versatile wide-angle zoom perspective. Its design enables a combination of wider angle-of-view with optical characteristics that are optimized for Nikon digital SLR camera sensors.

This DX Nikkor lens features a variety of Nikon's highly regarded technologies such as Silent Wave Motor (AF-S) for super fast and quiet autofocus operation, Extra-Low Dispersion glass (ED) for minimized chromatic aberrations, and Internal Focusing (IF) for convenient and balanced handling.

The Nikon D-type design provides precise distance information for flash and ambient light exposure processes. Manual/Auto mode enables instant switching from auto focus to manual with virtually no time lag even during AF servo operation. In addition, this lens features a rounded diaphragm to make out-of-focus elements appear more natural, and an 11.8-inch close focusing distance throughout zoom range.

Key Features:

Silent Wave Motor (SWM)
Enables high-speed autofocusing that's extremely accurate and super quiet.

Extra-low Dispersion (ED) Elements
Offers superior sharpness and color correction by effectively minimizing chromatic aberration, even at the widest aperture settings.

Three aspherical lens elements
Aspherical lens elements virtually eliminate coma and other types of lens aberration, even when used at the widest aperture.

M/A Focus Mode Switch
Enables quick response to changing situations between manual and autofocus operation.

Internal Focusing (IF)
Provides fast and quiet autofocusing without changing the length of the lens, retaining subject working distance throughout the focus range.

Protect your lens and enhance your photos

The Hoya HMC Ultraviolet UV Filter is a multi-purpose filter that is designed to optimize the photography experience of the digital SLR user. UV filters absorb ultraviolet rays that often make outdoor photographs hazy and indistinct, and should be constantly fitted to a lens to provide improved clarity and color balance, as well as to provide protection to your lens.

Hoya Digital HMC filters are optimized for use with digital SLR cameras, but they are also perfect for traditional 35mm SLR applications, including black and white photography.

In addition, this HMC (Hoya Multi-Coated) filter minimizes reflections at the filter surface which reduces flare and ghosting. The result is an average light transmission of over 97%, providing sharp contrast and well-balanced color. Hoya HMC filters are recommended for enhancing the performance of today's multi-coated lenses.

Key Features:

• Multi-coating greatly reduces lens flare and ghosting
• Slim filter frame helps avoid vignetting on super wide angle lenses
• Improves clarity and color balance
• Protects your lens surface from dust and scratches

Essential items for the proper maintenance of your equipment

It's obvious that the cleaner the lens and camera sensor, the sharper your pictures will be. Dirt, dust, and fingerprints will degrade the image quality of even the finest optics. However, it's equally important to avoid using incorrect cleaning materials which can permanently damage your photo equipment.

This 6-piece cleaning kit contains everything you'll ever need to properly clean your lenses and digital SLR camera, including an air blower, soft brush, cleaning solution, lens tissues, cotton swabs, and a microfiber cloth. Also includes a soft carrying pouch.
