nikon 16-80mm f2.8 3.5 vr

Nikon developed a new Nikon 16-80mm f/2.8-3.5 vr lens. This is a brighter version of the excellent older Nikon 16-85mm f/3.5-5.6 Vr lens.

The lens rumored to have a different hood than the original version. The new hood will be more square shape. The big improvement is the f/3.5 aperture is the long end, which can be f/4 as well I think in the end but still lot better than the f/5.6 of the older version which was the weakest part of the lens. The new f/3.5 or f/4 aperture helps to have a more blurred background as well as portraits indoors or dark lighting situations.
