Nikon Super Integrated Coating ensures exceptional performance
To improve the performance of its optical lenses, Nikon uses an exclusive lens coating that reduces multi-layer and flare to a negligible level. Nikon Super Integrated Coating achieves a number of objectives, including minimized reflection in the wider wavelength range and color balance and reproduction. Nikon Super Integrated Coating is especially effective for lenses with a large number of items, like our Zoom-Nikkor. In addition, Nikon, a multilayer coating process is tailored to the AO design of each particular lens. The number of coatings applied to each lens is carefully calculated to match the lens type and glass used, and also to ensure uniform color balance that characterizes Nikkor lenses. This results in lenses that meet much higher standards than the rest of the industry.

Back focus
With Nikon, rear focusing AOS (RF) system, all lenses are divided into specific lens groups, with only the rear lens group moving for focusing. This makes autofocusing operation smoother and faster.

Remote information

This lens normal full-frame ($ 220 street) is one of the cheapest food in the world of high speed Nikkor glass. As with all Nikon lenses G, diaphragm its parameters are processed electronically by the camera, there is no aperture ring. Nikon DX on the organs, with their APS-C size sensors, the new scale to the equivalent of 50mm to 75mm.

Less than 8 ounces and just over 2 inches long, the lens is compact, but big enough for the largest class-action full-frame 50mm f/1.8 lens from 1.5 to 1.75 inches. Aesthetically appealing, with marks of gold surfaces and easy to maneuver, it has a ring well damped manual focus that runs at 120 degrees for fully manual focus accurately. And you may find yourself using frequently, because the interface AF / MF is transparent: You can easily touch up focus manually while the lens is AF-ready. Thank you Silent Wave motor, AF is fast, accurate and virtually silent, well suited to video DSLRs, especially when using a microphone off camera.

On our optical bench, it has produced consistently excellent line sharpness and contrast for the number of outputs up to 11×14 inches, our benchmark. (Nikon 50mm f/1.8D lens introduced in the 1990s and again in the catalog, fell down into the Excellent range and good for larger openings.) In our tests using DxO Analyzer 4.0 distortion This target was rushing into the light-(0.26%). Although this may not seem like much, the comparable D Nikkor optics produced visible range barreling (0.50%) in our tests. Indeed, back in their heyday, the film-era glass 50mm f/1.8 for most manufacturers duly authorized Visible barrel distortion very visible.

Like all lenses in the 50mm full-frame body, Nikon offers a viewing angle that approximates that of the human eye. The result is imagery Free apparent perspective distortion that occurs with a broader and longer. For this reason alone, everyone needs a normal.

As a lens at high speed, it produces nicely defocused foreground and backgroud, high shutter speeds to stop action, and sends a lot of light for shooting dimly lit scenes and places. Its compact profile suits him to travel and street photography at prices unbelievable attractiveness.

The Easiest and surest way to save memories of your precious time is to take a snap Of That Particular time. And the best way to catch ‘em all in vivid detail Is To invest in a DSLR camera. Among the companies camera Nikon DSLRs have good IS have any to take great quality pictures at affordable prices. You can take a clear photograph with professional looks with your Nikon DSLR camera, all you do Have to just take care of simple thesis steps:

1. The autofocus option est disponible en Nikon DSLR camera Which Enables the camera to fine tune the focus of the camera Automatically. Goal You Should Have to take care That IS your camera Placed well and well Focusing on the subject. To your Nikon DSLR autofocus camera, you should “press the shutter button half after a time and press the button Which Will Completely automatic spot year focus on your subject.

2. Hold the camera with Both Your Hands Supporting the camera in the left palm and hold the trigger in your right hand. A lot of beginners upgrading from a point and shoot do not hold the DSLR Properly and this results in a lot of shake in the picture.

3. After focusing on the subject , resist camera shake as it will provide you a clearer image. This is especially true in night when the camera needs more time to capture the image. Improvise; look out for places around where you can place the camera in a steady place and use the timer to take the snap.

4. Avoid taking full body photograph of your object when not necessary. Move closer towards the subject and take a close up photograph using the Portrait mode. Try to capture unposed photos thereby capturing real emotions of people

5. Avoid using flash during day time and in the places where enough light is available to take a clear photograph. Flashes tend to wash out the skin and the subtle emotions of people. But do not forget to on the flash if you are taking an indoor photograph with low intensity of light.

Nikon DSLR has a lot more features which will be discussed in a later article. Once you buy a DSLR it is imperative that you upgrade from shooting in Auto mode to more complex modes such as Aperture Priority, Manual which gives one  better control over the photo being shot.

Nikon AF-S Nikkor 35mm 1:1.8G DX

The AF-S Nikkor 35mm F1.8G DX is Nikon’s latest lens, announced in February for PMA 2009. Its introduction came as something of a surprise to many observers, not because it’s an updated 35mm lens with a built-in autofocus motor, but because the ‘DX’ designation indicates that it’s designed for use on DX format bodies, and isn’t fully compatible with Nikon’s growing FX format camera range. According to Nikon, this has allowed the company to design a lens that is smaller, lighter and cheaper than it would have been had it offered full coverage of the FX image circle. In effect, the lens is primarily targeted as an inexpensive, large aperture option for users of the entry-level (D40 / D40X /D60) series of DSLRs.

The 35mm focal length is roughly equivalent to 50mm on an FX camera, and the lens therefore fits into the ‘standard’ category, with an angle of view offering none of the ‘perspective distortion’ associated with wideangle or telephoto lenses. The fast F1.8 maximum aperture admits more than four times as much light as the AF-S 18-55mm F3.5-5.6G VR DX kit lens, which is useful for shooting in low light while keeping shutter speeds reasonably high. The ‘Silent Wave Motor’ allows autofocus on all of Nikon’s DSLR bodies, with the added bonus of allowing the user to tweak focus manually in AF mode if desired.

The 35mm F1.8G features an optical design of 8 elements in 6 groups, including an aspherical element for the correction of aberrations usually associated with large aperture prime lenses. However unlike the typical 50mm standard prime for the full frame (FX) format, this lens’s focal length is rather shorter than the flange distance from the lens mount to the imager. This necessitates the use of a so-called ‘retrofocal’ design, which is more usually associated with wideangle lenses; unfortunately this often results in increased aberrations relative to traditional near-symmetric 50mm designs. So how does the 35mm F1.8 DX measure up?

Headline features

* 35mm focal length; fast F1.8 maximum aperture
* Silent Wave Motor allows autofocusing on all Nikon DSLRs
* Full-time manual focus override
* For DX format cameras
