PhotoZone have reviewed the new AF-S DX NIKKOR 16-85mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR, a wideangle 5.3x zoom lens with built-in vibration-reduction.

“Despite some shortcomings the Nikkor AF-S 16-85mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR DX is probably still the best DX standard zoom lens in Nikon mount to date. It is very sharp throughout the range although there could be a little less field curvature (curved focus field) at 16mm. The level of distortions and lateral CAs is comparatively moderate for such a lens (still a bit high in absolute terms).”
