Best of the Best : A not-too-serious compilation of the best Nikkor lenses

Compiled by Bjørn Rørslett


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The most common question I receive from all you people out there is simply this:

Which is the best performing Nikkor of them all?

Of course, this is a nonsensical question. You cannot legitimately compare a wide-angle with a telephoto lens. Still, the public demand a clear-cut answer. So, without further ado, here is the compiled list you all have been asking for,


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wide-angle lenses
35 mm f/1.4 Nikkor
28 mm f/2 Nikkor
28 mm f/2.8 Nikkor (AIS, close focus to 0.2 m)

Normal lenses
50 mm f/2 Nikkor-H (AI)
50 mm f/1.8 Nikkor
58 mm f/1.2 Noct-Nikkor
50 mm f/1.4 Nikkor (latest versions, including AF D)

Medium short ("portrait") lenses
AF 85 mm f/1.4 Nikkor
AF 105 mm f/2 DC Nikkor
105 mm f/2.5 Nikkor (Gauss design)
85 mm f/1.4 Nikkor (MF, AIS)

Short telephoto lenses
AFS 200 mm f/2 ED IF VR G
AF 180 mm f/2.8 ED-IF Nikkor
200 mm f/2 ED-IF Nikkor (AIS)
180 mm f/2.8 ED Nikkor (AIS)

Long telephoto lenses
AFS 300 mm f/2.8 ED-IF Nikkor (Mk. I only)
300 mm f/2.8 ED-IF Nikkor (AIS)
AFS 500 mm f/4 ED-IF Nikkor

Lenses for close-up photography
55 mm f/3.5 Micro-Nikkor (non-AI, old, compensating type, mid-to-late 1960's)
AF 200 mm f/4 ED-IF Micro-Nikkor
85 mm f/2.8 PC-Micro-Nikkor

Zoom lenses
AFS 200-400 mm f/4 ED-IF VR G Nikkor
AFS 28-70 mm f/2.8 ED-IF Nikkor
AFS 70-200 mm f/2.8 G VR ED-IF Nikkor (a long march but leading to revolution)
AFS 17-35 mm f/2.8 ED-IF Nikkor

Special applications
105 mm f/4.5 UV-Nikkor [discontinued]
55 mm f/1.2 Oscilloscope-Nikkor [discontinued]
Any of the many Ultra-Micro-Nikkors or Macro-Nikkors [discontinued]
(if there is a trend here, I don't like it...)

Late-breaking entries, too good not to be mentioned here
 
(we'll see to that ...)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some of these groups should be populated with additional lenses of similar quality, this in particular applies to the 85-200 mm and long lens areas. Or, the zoom lenses could be split into more sub-entries. However, a cut-off had to be set somewhere. It isn't easy to deal with an array of quality products. So be it.

The position of a lens in each category is mainly a matter of taste or needs and should not be taken as set in stone. To avoid the wide-spread misconception that the list implies a ranking within each group, I now have removed the numbering of the entries. Treat them as peers. Thus, each candidate is a top-notch, professional-quality performer. Your own shooting habits dictate which one is the better for you: for example, the 17-35 Nikkor is my favourite lens for the D1X, whilst the AFS 28-70 Nikkor suits me better on an F5. Use them for taking splendid images, please don't let any of these lenses be stood on collector's shelves. They don't deserve such an ill fate.

The lens review pages will provide further details of all these lenses. Enjoy and remember, this list isn't for real. Being an Oracle isn't that easy either, but I perform better for every new day.

135mm f/2 AF-DC
