Nikon 17-35 tragically underrated Incredible lens for the price if you understand it's limitations. This is my favorite lens to leave on my camera and I love wide angle shots. If you shoot it wide open at night for astrophotography or in bright light then check the corners you will find falloff and softness. However, for half the price of a used 16-35 the compromise is worth it. It's so well made it's a work of art. You can find morons on YouTube babbling about how bad this lens is all day long but if you actually like to take pictures you'll love this lens. There's a reason why nikon still makes it today.

nikon nikkor 17-35mm lens enter the beast! if you are looking for something cheap, small and built poorly, there are many offerings from other lens manufacturers in this configuration. but none, like this one. the 17-35 brilliantly merely doubles its focal length and thus allows the intelligent use of optic configuration to make this the lens that every nikon user, from film cameras to digital bodies, the one to use. fast af focusing, large zoom and manual focusing rings. aperture control on the lens, as it is a D model make this an exceptional optical performer. the performance, at all apertures is sharp, from edge to edge. excellent contrast and something you never want to drop on your foot! this is one of the few lenses that will serve 99% of all photo applications.

Incredible lens I use the Nikon 17-35 f2.8 lens on both my d810 and d500. This is s great lens! Nikon still makes them new, due to demand and they sell them for almost $2,000.00 dollars! I like the ability to use 77mm filters, unlike with the Nikon 14-24 f2.8. Even just to be able to put a clear protection filter. I would buy this lens again. I also own the Nikon 20-35 f2.8, the predecessor to the 17-35. The 17-35 is much better than the 20-35 in range, focus speed and sharpness.
