Crazy price for a crazy sharp lens.

Heck, I think my trade in price was around this price when I traded in this lens. And this is new btw from a legit dealer.

I had two of the earlier version of this lens. Sold them both for more than this price late last year.

A few errors here: "DX" is not the mount. That's the sensor. This is F-mount and will be the equivalent of a 16-24mm on a _DX_ body. It will be 11-16mm on _FX_. It can be used on Z-mount systems with an FTZ adapter. Bokeh on DX sensors will be limited to an f/4 equivalent, iirc

EDIT: Looks like I'm the one with it wrong. Aside from the correction that "DX" is the sensor and "F" is the mount, it does appear that this is a lens made for DX sensors. It will still for 16-24mm due to DX crop, but would NOT be 11-16 on full-frame. Been away from the DX game for too long. Sorry to anyone I mislead Frown

Also, I believe the ATX-I model had a screw drive autofocus system which works on older (and higher-end) F-mount bodies. The ATX-II has an internal focus motor which works on the mid-low range F-mount bodies and the mirrorless Z mount with the FTZ adapter.

Some errors here as well. This is designed for the DX "format", and is 16.5-24mm "35mm full frame equivalent". However it won't be 11-16 on an FX full frame body, because the image will vignette around all the edges (worst at 11). You could use it on a crop frame mirrorless camera with the ftz adapter, or some full frame mirrorless like the z8 can automatically shift to crop frame mode. This could be disengaged for special effects, or when merging frames with sufficient overlap.

I also had an earlier version of this lens, and I'm trying to sell that for more on Craigslist now. Don't tell everybody!

Great lens, but make sure your Nikon body has an internal focus motor.

Wow, I have the previous version of this that I got for $289 in 2019. I believe this has a different exterior shell and some different coatings (including a water repellent coating). The lens is so much fun, and I'm often stunned with how good the photos come out on both my D500 and old D5000. If you've got an F-Mount camera, this is a such a good deal.

On a nikon full frame, you will be limited to the dx mode and it will
Be a 16mm - 25mm lens. Not ideal but for this price might be worth it for some.
