There is nothing wrong with any of your lenses, this has been said here already!
I don\'t get it.....
These silver particles are not particles of any kind attached to your glass. There\'s nothing inside!
If Nikon reps are reading these posts I bet they\'re having a lot of fun.
Do you really think that such huge and respectful company would messed these expensive lenses up to this extend?
Just \"load\" them with dirt, silver particles, dust or whatever you think it may be?
These \"things\" you\'re seeing are just reflections of internal wall coatings - black with some kind of glitter in there. That\'s Nikon\'s proprietary coating so they won\'t tell you what these little things are.
That\'s all it is! There\'s presence of it in 24-70mm f/2.8 and 14-24 f/2.8 lenses, just like in case of 70-200mm lens.
They are below the glass on the wall! They reflect the light you try to shine inside with a flash light or or something.
Here are a few samples of 24-70 and 70-200mm lenses I own. (the pic of 70-200mm isn\'t the best but I can see a million of these little \"silver particles\" when shine the flash light inside.)
But I have absolutely no problems with any of my pics I take with this lens. I just bought too, about 3 weeks ago so it is a brand new lens I was about to return thinking it\'s broken, or I should say Dirty! No it\'s not. Just look below men.
