Nikon AF Nikkor 28-80mm F3.3-5.6G Zoom Lens Nikon F Mount

Description

The Nikon AF Nikkor 28-80mm F3.3-5.6G is a lightweight, versatile standard zoom designed for Nikon F‑mount film and digital SLRs. Known for its surprisingly strong optical performance, it delivers sharp results across the zoom range with fast, reliable screw‑drive autofocus. Its compact all‑plastic construction keeps weight to a minimum, making it an ideal everyday lens for travel, walk‑around shooting or pairing with Nikon film bodies. A G‑type design means aperture is controlled via the camera body, ensuring full compatibility with modern Nikon DSLRs that support screw‑drive AF.

Collectors Notes

This lens is a well‑regarded “sleeper” from Nikon’s early‑2000s lineup, offering performance far above its kit‑lens reputation. Its extremely low weight and strong optical output make it a popular choice for collectors and film shooters looking to build period‑correct Nikon setups. Particularly well‑matched to bodies such as the F55, F65, F75, F80 and similar.
