Thank you for purchasing the AF-S DX NIKKOR 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5G ED lens. DX NIKKOR lenses are specially designed
for use with Nikon digital-SLR (Nikon DX-format) cameras, such as the D300 and D90. When mounted on Nikon DX-
format cameras, the lens picture angle is equivalent to approximately 1.5× the focal length in 35mm format. Before
using this lens, please read these instructions and refer to your camera’s User’s Manual.
Major features
This lens employs a Silent Wave Motor to drive the
focusing mechanism, making autofocusing smooth,
silent and almost instantaneous. The focus mode
switch d is provided for simple selection of
autofocus (A) or manual focus (M) operation.
More accurate exposure control is possible when this
is mounted on a Nikon camera with 3D color matrix
metering capability, because subject distance
information is transferred from the lens to the camera.
Superior optical performance and rendering
characteristics are maximized with the use of three
aspherical lens elements and two extra-low
dispersion (ED) glass elements, which ensure
correction of chromatic aberration. In addition, the
rounded aperture produces soft and pleasing blur
characteristics in portions of pictures that are out-of-
focus.
Focusing, zooming, and depth of
field
Before focusing, rotate the zoom ring 5 to adjust the
focal length until the desired composition is framed.
If your camera has a depth-of-field preview (stop-
down) button or lever, depth of field can be previewed
through the camera viewfinder.
This lens is equipped with the Internal Focusing (IF)
system. As the shooting distance decreases, the focal
length also decreases.
The distance scale does not indicate the precise
distance between the subject and the camera. Values
are approximate and should be used only as a general
guide. When shooting distant landscapes, depth of
field may influence operation so that the camera may
focus at a position that is closer than infinity.
