Nikon lenses have dominated professional photography over the past few decades and many Nikkor lenses have become classics during that time such as the 105mm Micro Nikkor or the Nikon 180mm F2.8 lens which was favored by fashion photographers in the past.
Today's Nikon digital slr line up is dominated by cameras using the smaller APS-C size sensor although Nikon have released a few professional full frame digital SLR cameras in recent years.
Although the Nikon lens mount has remained consistent over the decades, allowing most Nikon lenses to be used on most Nikon SLR and DLSR bodies, Nikon DX lenses designed only for digital SLR cameras with smaller sensors cannot be used on full frame cameras as the image circle covered by the lens is inadequate. |
