Lens Testing - Nikon 24F2.8 AF-D - page 6
Non-scientific, seat-of-the-pants shots with a Nikon 24 F2.8 AF-D lens. When I got my D700 I took out several lenses one at a time to see how they performed on FX. I never used the 24 F2.8 much on film or digital DX, and I wanted to give it another chance on FX format.
