The Nikkor AF 24mm f/2.8D didn’t really convince during the tests due to various shortcomings. The resolution figures were generally very decent but otherwise the lens left something to be desired for a fix-focal with relatively high barrel distortions, very high vignetting at f/2.8 and very pronounced CAs. Spherical aberrations (focus shifts when stopping down) on top don’t make things any better. So despite the relatively ambitious design (floating elements) the lens doesn’t seem to be overly attractive anymore. This doesn’t mean that the AF 24mm f/2.8D is a bad lens, it’s not, but fix-focals should perform better than good zoom lenses. READ FULL REVIEW
