17-55mm

For reportage photos, portraits, and product photography we generally use the 17-55mm f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor. This lens allows us much creative freedom due to its wide focal length combined with the possibility for shooting at small f-numbers in the entire range. This 755 g superlens has a minimum focus distance of only 0.36 which results in a magnification ratio of 1:5.

Nikon specifications: 

• Professional class lens for Nikon dSLR cameras
• this lens delivers a picture angle equivalent to a 25-82mm 135 format zoom lens.
• Three ED glass elements minimise chromatic aberration with higher resolution and superior contrast
• Nikon exclusive SWM (Silent Wave Motor) for whisper quiet and fast Autofocus.
