Model Reviewed:
Nikkor W 180mm f/5.6

Summary:

Excellent lens and very price competitive with Schenider and Rodenstock. Nikon glass quality continues to rank among the best in the world.

Strengths:

Beautifully made. Exceptional quality coatings on glass surfaces. Superb images

Weaknesses:

180mm is somewhat of an awkward focal length for landscape purposes. I use it less than my other focal lengths.

Similar Products Used:

Fujinon and Schneider

Customer Service:

Never have contacted Nikon for any reason with regard to this lens. Nikon is rumored to be getting out of the large format lens business which could affect long term repair and support.
