Nikkor’s autofocus, despite the lack of an SWM motor, didn’t cause any problems. We have to honestly admit that it is slow and very loud, but on the other hand, it didn’t result in any reduction of efficiency. The lens missed in only 2% of cases in our testing conditions. This is a terrific result.

We didn’t observe any tendencies towards front or back focusing.
