p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Nikon 16-35mm f/4 shines!


After owning this lens for a week, I just wanted to say it rocks. It really is crazy sharp and I am using it on a D7000. Below are a few images ive shot with it and im amazed everytime i use it. Anyone else feel the same way?

Those are some amazing photos!!.. Though I wish not to go off topic, I must ask. Have you had any experience with the 20/2.8d? I'm looking for a wide angle lens for an fx camera and am stuck between 17-35, 16-35 and the small and light 20/2.8. Just wanted to hear your experience leading up to you finding and loving the 16-35.

Thank you! Never tried the 20mm lens...I searched around for a lot of wide angles lenses and I wanted to get one that would be FX compatible. I use to own the tokina 11-16mm but I sold it to fund this lens. I will be upgrading to fx soon and the 16-35mm was an easy choice. I didnt care too much for the 17-35mm being 2.8 bc I mostly always use my tripod for landscapes. And so now if i dont have it, I have the VR of the 16-35mm to assist. Hope that helps!

I went from the 17-35 to the 16-35 and have no regrets....
Both are excellent pieces of glass..

Is that a submarine periscope in the third picture? It sure looks unreal. If it's a pipe, why isn't water flowing from it?

Meanwhile, I'm really happy with my 17-50. Those are nice shots.

Lol no its just a local forest preserve where it has a small waterfall by a bridge. There's not much water pouring from it but there is some. Thanks for the comments

You should probably post on web in sRGB, not ProPhoto RGB (thats actually intended for post-processing/printing only), except for FireFox with enabled color profiles it looks really wierd.

Btw. it looks really sharp, seems as good lens (and VR is always handy).

Yes it does, those JPEGs you posted are tagged with ProPhoto RGB.

Scroll a bit down "ICCProfile Name ProPhoto RGB".

Any ideas on how I would change that? lol All I do is upload it to flickr....I wonder if it's their website that changes that aspect.

Well, you must saved it like that. After export from Photoshop/Lightroom or which kind SW you use. And no, flickr doesnt change this.

Im usually using "Save for web" in Photoshop and selecting sRGB, or saving just without ICC profile. You can convert profile there too, if you wish.
