Thank you for purchasing the AF-S DX NIKKOR 16-85mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR 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
By enabling vibration reduction, slower shutter
speeds (3.5 stops*) can be used, thus increasing
the range of usable shutter speeds and zoom
positions, particularly when hand-holding the
camera. (*The effects of VR on shutter speed are
measured according to Camera and Imaging
Products Association (CIPA) standards; FX-
format lenses are measured using FX-format
digital cameras, DX-format lenses using DX-
format cameras. Zoom lenses are measured at
maximum zoom.)
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 body.
The use of three aspherical and two extra-
low dispersion (ED) lens elements ensures
sharp pictures virtually free of color fringing.
Also, the seven-bladed diaphragm produces
a nearly-circular aperture, a feature which
causes out-of-focus areas of the picture to
become soft and unobtrusive.
