This new lens lets photographers immerse viewers into landscapes, interiors and architecture with amazing clarity and minimal distortion, while a fast maximum aperture delivers superb bokeh and excellent low-light ability. Whether a photographer’s passion is capturing environmental portraits or the delicious details of a meal, this lens creates a dramatic separation between subject and background.
The new NIKKOR 24mm f/1.8 complements Nikon’s high-resolution DSLRs and provides amazing image quality thanks to Nikon lens technologies including Nikon’s exclusive Nano Crystal Coat. Additionally, this compact lens features ED and Aspherical lens elements for extreme sharpness while minimizing ghosting and flare.
The Nikon 24mm ƒ/1.8G performed very well in our sharpness testing. Mounted on the sub-frame D7000, the lens offers excellent performance at all apertures -- there's a hint of corner softness at ƒ/1.8, but at any other aperture, it's tack-sharp across the frame all the way through to ƒ/8.
The Nikkor 24mm f/1.8G ED performs very well. It is slightly soft wide open, but is sharpening up well from f/2.8 and reaches a very good standard by f/4, right through to the minimum aperture of f/16. The peak of central performance lies at f/11. The edges follow a similar pattern, also peaking at f/11, albeit it at a slightly lower level than the center.

Center sharpness is quite good wide open, very good at f/2.8, and nothing short of excellent between f/4 and f/11. At f/16, center sharpness is still very high, although lens contrast is lower than at the other settings. You need to stop down to f/4 to get acceptable results at the edges.
