Great lens. Even without the VR it delivers on all front. If crisp images is what you are looking for, then this is certainly a lens worth considering. This is my work horse when shooting weddings and it has yet to let me down.

Given so many reviews for this “old” Nikon 17-55mm F2.8G AF-S DX IF-ED, I thought I should first explain that the one missing star is due to its being slightly inferior compared with a prime lens. Apart from that, it’s an excellent lens, and its practicality compensates some slight weaknesses. I bought this lens for my D500. The DX 1.5 factor makes its focal range nearly ideal for travel and street photography. I took it on my trip to Paris last week, bringing only my Nikon 70-200 F4G VR as backup. I took some pics indoor (e.g., the Opera Paris) and outdoor (no need to mention). Until finishing the trip, I didn’t touch the 70-200 and all the time this 17-55 was on my D500. The photo quality is totally satisfactory. It gives me peace in mind that when going on a trip I can just bring this 17-55mm with my D500 and I don’t have to bring with me different lenses unless it’s a trip with certain shooting plan. This is what I mean practicality. Recently, I used this 17-55mm for an indoor social dance event. This was one of my purposes to buy this lens, i.e., I do prefer the constant f2.8 for low light situations. This constant f/2.8 of 17-55mm was one of the main reasons I bought it. In most of the time in this dance event, this 17-55mm worked well for me except a few occasions when I had to switch to my Nikon 35mm f/1.4 (it worked as a standard lens on my DX camera) when the light was too low for some spots. The photo quality from this 17-55mm is very satisfactory. It may be worth mentioning that the first week after purchasing the 17-55mm, I shoot an outdoor portrait. I was so impressed by the sharpness of the subject’s eye lashes (used f/4). But later incidentally I used f/13 and the sharpness seems slightly lower. My view is that, no point to complain for its slight weaknesses, but I just need to explore and get to know this lens. A perfect lens does not exist in this world. It is known that Nikon’s quality slightly varies sometimes, meaning you may find some slight variance in the aspects of the quality across different copies of the same lens model. We have to know the lens in our hand and make the best out of it.Update: Its been over a year since my earlier post in July 2017. My experience of using this lens has convonced me that I must change my previous 4 star to 5 star for this lens. Its unfair to compare this zoom lens with a prime lens. Over the past year this lens proved to be really excellent.
