Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 14-24mm f/2.8G ED Lens

Ultimate wide-angle nikon lens. This super wide-angle, FX-compatible lens is considered by many to be the best wide-angle lens -- ever -- from any manufacturer. Ever. If you're shooting on a full-frame sensor and want a wide angle, this is the lens for you; end of discussion. It's sharp edge-to-edge, has fast and silent auto focus, and features every Nikon acronym in the book including ED low dispersion glass, AF-S Silent Wave auto-focus, Nano Crystal coating and it's a G-type lens too, so there is no aperture ring. It's also part of the Nikon Holy Trinity that includes the 24-70mm f/2.8G and the 70-200mm f/2.8 VR II. Are there any downsides? Well, its front element is approximately the size of a small mammal and it does not accept filters due to the curvature of the glass. And....um... It's big and heavy? We're at a loss here. In fact, this lens is so good Canon shooters are mounting it on their bodies via a third-party adapter!

Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II

One of my favorites. The original Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8G AF-S VR is generally regarded as a fantastic piece of glass, but it has just one problem -- it vignettes on full-frame sensor bodies like the D700 and D3. Nikon has remedied this issue with the new VR II version you see here, and also added an improved Vibration Reduction system that bumps up the number of stops that you can handhold the lens from three to four stops. One other big change is the snazzy gold N badge on the barrel; it signifies Nikon has applied its top-secret Nano Crystal Coating to help control ghosting and flare.

Nikon 85mm f/1.4G AF-S

The ultimate portrait lens. Nikon shooters have been waiting for this lens for a very long time, and it is considered to be the ultimate protrait lens due to its semi-long focal length and fast 1.4 aperture for buttery smooth "bokeh." This is a serious piece of kit and includes all the latest Nikon technology, including Nano-crystal coating to reduce flare and a big gold band indicating its a pro lens. Also, since it uses Nikon's AF-S Silent Wave Motor auto-focus, it'll work on the D40 and D60 bodies.

Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm F2.8G ED

A must have The Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8G AF-S ED Lens is a fast mid-length zoom that sports a Silent Wave Motor for quiet operation. The 2.8 aperture is suitable for most low-light situations and the rugged construction means this lens can be used in inclement weather and dusty environments. The optical glass used in this lens controls chromatic aberrations and produces pleasing contrast. The anti-reflective coating virtually eliminates internal lens flare. This lens covers a large range of focal lengths that are suitable for event and travel photography - from wide angle to short telephoto. It is also an ideal portrait zoom lens, especially when paired with a crop sensor camera body making it an effective 36-105mm - great lengths for photographing people.

Nikon 85mm f/2.8D PC-E Tilt-Shift

So beautiful. Great manual control. Bokeh out of this world. This is a medium-telephoto lens with special "Perspective Control" tilt and shift functions, making it ideal for architectural, portrait, product, and nature photography. Using tilt and shift correction will help obtain a natural-looking perspective in a distortion-free architectural image. The PC-E 85mm lens is compatible with all digital and 35mm film SLR cameras (in manual mode). With the latest digital cameras (i.e. D3, D700, D300, and later models), auto-aperture control is possible directly from the camera itself. Nikon's Nano Crystal Coat virtually eliminates internal reflections for greater image quality. The Super Integrated Coating (SIC) offers outstanding color performance and substantially reduced ghosting and flare.
