Notes on Safety Operations
CAUTION
Do not disassemble
Touching the internal parts of the camera or lens could
result in injury. Repairs should be performed only by
qualified technicians. Should the camera or lens break
open as the result of a fall or other accident, take the
product to a Nikon-authorized service representative for
inspection after unplugging the product and/or removing
the battery.
Turn off immediately in the event of
malfunction
Should you notice smoke or an unusual smell coming
from the camera or lens, remove the battery immediately,
taking care to avoid burns. Continued operation could
result in injury.
After removing or disconnecting the power source, take
the product to a Nikon-authorized service representative
for inspection.
Do not use the camera or lens in the
presence of flammable gas
Operating electronic equipment in the presence of
flammable gas could result in an explosion or fire.
Do not look at the sun through the lens
or viewfinder
Viewing the sun or other strong light sources through the
lens or viewfinder could cause permanent visual
impairment.
Keep out of reach of children
Particular care should be taken to prevent infants from
putting the batteries or other small parts into their mouths.
Observe the following precautions when
handling the camera and lens
• Keep the camera and lens unit dry. Failure to do so
could result in fire or electric shock.
• Do not handle or touch the camera or lens unit with
wet hands. Failure to do so could result in electric

Thank you for purchasing the AF-S NIKKOR 16-35mm f/4G ED VR lens. Before using this lens,
please read these instructions and refer to your camera's User's Manual.
Major features
• The Nano Crystal Coat deposited on some of the
lens elements ensures that fine, clear images can be
reproduced under various shooting conditions, from
the sunny outdoors to spotlighted interior scenes.
• By enabling vibration reduction ( VR Ⅱ ), slower
shutter speeds (approximately four stops*) can be
used, thus increasing the range of usable shutter
speeds and zoom positions, particularly when hand-
holding the camera. (*Based on results achieved
under Nikon measurement conditions. The effects of
vibration reduction may vary according to shooting
conditions and use.)
• Superior optical performance and rendering
characteristics are maximized with the use of three
aspherical lens elements and two extra-low
dispersion (ED) glass elements, which ensure
correction of chromatic aberration. In addition, the
rounded aperture produces soft and pleasing blur
characteristics in portions of pictures that are out-of-
focus.
Important
• When mounted on Nikon DX format digital SLR
cameras, such as the D300-Series and D90, the lens’
picture angle becomes 83°-44° and its 35mm
equivalent focal length is approx. 24-52.5 mm.

Vibration reduction mode (Fig. B)
Setting the vibration reduction ON/OFF
switch
ON: The effects of camera shake are reduced
while the shutter-release button is pressed
halfway and also at the instant the shutter is
released. Because vibration is reduced in the
viewfinder, auto/manual focusing and exact
framing of the subject are easier.
OFF: The effects of camera shake are not reduced.
Notes on using vibration reduction
• After pressing the shutter-release button halfway,
wait until the image in the viewfinder stabilizes
before pressing the shutter-release button the
rest of the way down.
• Due to the characteristics of the vibration
reduction mechanism, the image in the
viewfinder may be blurred after the shutter is
released. This is not a malfunction.
• If the camera is panned in a wide arc,
compensation for camera shake in the panning
direction is not performed. For example, only the
effects of vertical camera shake is reduced with
horizontal panning.
• Do not turn the camera off or remove the lens
from the camera while vibration reduction is
operating. Failure to observe this note could
result in the lens sounding and feeling as if an
internal component is loose or broken when it is
shaken. This is not a malfunction. Turn the
camera on again to correct this.
• With cameras featuring a built-in flash, vibration
reduction does not function while the built-in
flash is charging.
• With autofocus cameras featuring an AF-ON
button, vibration reduction does not function
when the AF-ON button is pressed.
• When the camera is mounted on a tripod, set the
vibration reduction ON/OFF switch to OFF.
However, it is recommended that the switch be
set to ON when using the camera on an
unsecured tripod head or with monopod.
• If this lens is used with cameras that do not have
the vibration reduction function (P.16), set the
vibration reduction ON/OFF switch to OFF. With
the Pronea 600i/6i camera, in particular, battery
power may become quickly depleted if this switch
is left ON.

The built-in flash and vignetting
• The built-in flash cannot be used over distances
of less than 0.6 m (2.0 ft.).
•
To prevent vignetting, do not use the lens hood.
• Vignetting is the darkening of the corners around
the image that occurs when the light emitted by
the flash is obstructed by the lens barrel.
Cameras Supported focal length/Shooting distance
D700 (FX format) • 28 mm/3 m (9.8 ft.) or greater
• 35 mm/1 m (3.3 ft.) or greater
D700 (DX format) • 20 mm/1.5 m (4.9 ft.) or greater
• 24 mm or longer/No restriction
D300-Series,
D200, D100
• 24 mm/2 m (6.6 ft.) or greater
• 28 mm/1 m (3.3 ft.) or greater

D3000, D60, D50,
D40-Series
• 28 mm/1.5 m (4.9 ft.) or greater
• 35 mm/1 m (3.3 ft.) or greater
D70-Series • 28 mm/2 m (6.6 ft.) or greater
• 35 mm/1 m (3.3 ft.) or greater
Other cameras Vignetting occurs at any shooting
distance.
Focusing, zooming, and depth of
field
Before focusing, rotate the zoom ring to adjust the
focal length until the desired composition is
framed. If your camera has a depth-of-field
preview (stopdown) button or lever, depth of field
can be previewed through the camera viewfinder.
• This lens is equipped with the Internal Focusing
(IF) system. As the shooting distance decreases,
the focal length also decreases.
• The distance scale does not indicate the precise
distance between the subject and the camera.
Values are approximate and should be used only
as a general guide. When shooting distant
landscapes, depth of field may influence
operation and the subject may appear in focus
at a position that is closer than infinity.
• For more information, see p. 146.
Setting the aperture
Use the camera to adjust the aperture setting.

Using the lens hood
Lens hoods minimize stray light and protect the lens.
Attaching the hood
• Be sure that the lens
hood mounting
index ( ) is aligned
with the lens hood
setting index ( )
(3).
• To facilitate attachment or removal of the hood,
hold it by the base (near the lens hood attachment
index (
)) rather than its outer edge.
• If the lens hood is not correctly attached, vignetting
may occur.
• To store the lens hood, attach it in the reverse
position.
Recommended focusing screens
Various interchangeable focusing screens are
available for certain Nikon SLR cameras to suit any
picture-taking situation. The ones recommended

screen can be used for both macrophotography at
a magnification ratio of 1:1 or above and for
photomicrography, it has different applications
than other screens.
Important
• For F5 cameras, only EC-B, EC-E, B, E, J, A, L
focusing screens are usable in Matrix Metering.
Lens care
• Be careful not to allow the CPU contacts to
become dirty or damaged.
• If the lens mount rubber gasket is damaged, be
sure to visit the nearest Nikon-authorized service
representative for repair.
•
Clean lens surfaces with a blower brush. To remove
dirt and smudges, use a soft, clean cotton cloth or
lens tissue moistened with ethanol (alcohol) or lens
cleaner. Wipe in a circular motion from the center
to outer edge, taking care not to leave traces or
touch other parts of the lens.
• Never use organic solvent such as thinner or
benzene to clean the lens.
• NC filters are available to protect the front lens
element. The lens hood also helps to protect the
front of the lens.
• When storing the lens in its flexible lens pouch,
attach both the front and rear lens caps.
• When the lens is mounted on a camera, do not
pick up or hold the camera and lens by the lens
hood.
• When the lens will not be used for an extended
period of time, store it in a cool, dry place to
prevent mold and rust. Be sure to store the lens
away from direct sunlight or chemicals such as
camphor or naphthalene.
• Do not get water on the lens or drop it in water
as this will cause it to rust and malfunction.
• Reinforced plastic is used for certain parts of the
lens. To avoid damage, never leave the lens in an
excessively hot place.
