The Nikon 28-50mm is Nikon's smallest f/3.5 constant aperture zoom. If you're in the mood to focus by hand, its a winner in every way. It's fast in both aperture and handling, and is small, very sharp and easy to use. It just goes.



It focuses to two feet (0.6m), and has an especially handy macro range to 1.1 feet (0.35m) at 50mm, right where you'd want a macro range. You don't need to fiddle with macro switches; it just focuses that close if you're zoomed to 50mm. Most other lenses stupidly give you the macro range at the wide end where you don't want it.



It is faster than almost every other amateur zoom. It has a constant aperture of f3.5, even at 50mm. By comparison, Nikon's latest 24-120mm VR is only f/5.3 at 50mm, or more than one-stop slower than this lens.



This lens is quite a performer, and is also a mechanical masterpiece. It was a "hefty" lens back in its era, but today, compared to modern f/2.8 midrange zooms, it is a featherweight.
