Nikon applies the anti-reflective coating through a special process, layering the lens surface in order to substantially reduce unwanted flare or ghosting. Super Integrated Coating Nikon's anti-reflective coating is an optical design feature which ensures superior clarity and image brilliance, even in poor or unfavorable lighting conditions.

This lens is also compatible with DX cameras and when used with a DX camera, the angle of view would be equivalent to a 75mm focal length lens. Nikon's Silent Wave Motor gives you smooth, silent, and precise autofocus operation, and the Manual/Auto (M/A) focus mode lets you quickly and easily override the autofocus system for fine manual focusing.
