Nikon AF-S Nikkor 17-35mm f/2.8D ED-IF review at momentcorp

"The good got better, the Nikon 17-35 AF-S f/2.8D ED-IF is one of the sharpest AF zoom lenses ever built. Nikon certainly did their job well when they upgrade this lens from the AF 20-35mm f/2.8D. This is one of my favorite lenses, and its always in my bag. I`ve always been a sucker for wide angle lenses, the wider the better.

For a working pro this is a must have lens. This lens handles everything you throw at it, good contrast, excellent sharpness, and it
