Title: One of the best fast wide angle lenses Nikon ever made
Review: The manual focus 24mm f2 Nikkor AI-S lens remains one of the best fast wide angle lenses Nikon ever made. Wide open, its performance is better at f2 than its slower 24mm f 2.8 sibling at f2.8. Optically, I believe that this lens is also better wide open than Nikon's celebrated 28mm f2 Nikkor and 35mm f1.4 Nikkor lenses. Like the 24mm f2.8 Nikkor lens, this 24mm lens has floating elements to ensure optimal performance up close. This is a splendid lens for landscape as well as indoor photography. If I still owned Nikon equipment, I would have eventually acquired this superb lens to replace my 24mm f2.8 Nikkor. Like all AI-S Nikkor lenses, the 24mm f2 Nikkor can be used on virtually every Nikon camera ever made from the original Nikon F to most of the current Nikon autofocus SLRs, but in manual focusing mode only.
