NIKON AF-S NIKKOR 16-35mm f/4 G ED VR — Optical Cross-Section & Ray Tracing

Home / Lenses / Nikon / NIKON AF-S NIKKOR 16-35mm f/4 G ED VRNIKON AF-S NIKKOR 16-35mm f/4 G ED VRUS 2010/0238560 A1↗, Example 1 — Makoto Fujimoto
17 ELEMENTS / 11 GROUPS (+ RESIN LAYER)
f = 16.48–33.94 mm
F/4.1 CONSTANT
2ω = 108°–63°
4 ASPHERICAL SURFACES / 3 ELEMENTS
2 ED-CLASS ELEMENTS (νd 82.5)
Focus MechanismInternal focusing by axial movement of cemented lens CL21 (L21+L22) inside G2 (¶0060). The patent tabulates no close-focus gaps, so focus travel is not modeled; 0.29 m is Nikon's published minimum focus distance.
