Nikon announces new 16-35mm f/4 G ED VR wide angle zoom lens

Nikon has announced the new 16-35mm f/4 G ED VR wide angle zoom lens. It is the first ultra wide angle zoom lens with image stabilisation.
This new lens is great news for landscape and travel photographers. The f4 aperture make the lens a lot lighter than a possible lens with f2.8. Some might prefer 2.8 to shoot under low light situations but with the incredible high ISO performance of cameras like the Nikon D700 or D3s, f4 will be more than enough. Of course, an f4 lens is also cheaper than a f2.8 lens.
If this new lens is as good as the amazing Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8G ED AF-S and Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8G ED AF-S then Nikon has another winner here.

Beside this wide angle zoom lens, Nikon also announced a new AF-S Nikkor 24mm F/1.4G ED, which has an extremely wide aperture for a 24mm lens.
