Nikon AF Zoom Nikkor 24-85mm f/2.8-4D IF Lens Review

slrlensreview.com has a review of the Nikon AF Zoom Nikkor 24-85mm f/2.8-4D IF Lens.

From the review:
The build quality of the lens is OK - the barrel and lens cams are plastic, the zoom and focusing rings are rubberized and are pretty smooth to operate. The aperture ring is plastic as well and clicks in into positions with a snap, although the ring itself is located right at the base of the mount and is somewhat hard to grasp comfortably when the lens is attached to a camera. The inner cams wobble a little bit, especially when the lens is fully extended. The lens is surprisingly compact when fully collapsed - it measures only 78 x 82mm (3.1 x 3.2in), but once the lens is zoomed towards the long end of the zoom, its length almost doubles. Weight-wise, it's average for standard zooms - at 545g (19.2oz) it is not going to break your neck.
