Nikon Nikkor 28mm f2.8D AF Lens 1:2.8 D Wide Angle Prime Lens (Pre-owned)
| Availability: | In stock |
the Nikon AF NIKKOR 28mm f/2.8D lens works on digital cameras, but its level of functionality depends entirely on the specific digital camera body you mount it on.
Autofocus Compatibility
- DSLRs with a Built-in Focus Motor: On higher-end Nikon DSLRs (such as the D7000, D700, D850, D500, or older D1/D2/D100/D200/D300 series) that feature an internal "screwdriver" autofocus motor, the lens will autofocus automatically.
- DSLRs without a Built-in Focus Motor: On entry-level Nikon DSLRs (such as the D40, D40x, D60, D3000-series, and D5000-series), the camera body lacks a mechanical AF motor. On these bodies, the lens will mount and meter fine, but you must focus manually using the focus ring.
- Mirrorless Cameras (Nikon Z Series): You can use this lens on Nikon Z mirrorless cameras using an FTZ adapter, but it will be manual focus only because the FTZ adapter does not add a mechanical autofocus drive.
Exposure and Metering Compatibility
- DSLRs and Mirrorless with CPU Contacts: Because this is a "D" (Distance) type AF Nikkor lens, it has built-in electronic CPU contacts. It fully supports automatic exposure modes (Program, Shutter Priority, Aperture Priority, and Manual) and communicates precise focus/distance information to the camera's 3D matrix metering system.
- Aperture Ring: You must lock the physical aperture ring to its highest setting (f/22, usually marked in orange) on most modern digital bodies so you can control the aperture electronically from the camera dial
