Your D5000 and superb NIKKOR lenses.
A match made in heaven.
Treat yourself to the wonders of the world through NIKKOR lenses. Incorporating Nikon’s renowned optical technologies,
the NIKKOR series includes a full complement of lenses for most any photographic application. Whether you are an
aspiring pro or the casual point-and-shoot type, you’ll appreciate the difference NIKKOR makes.
Note: The D5000 is exclusively designed for use with NIKKOR AF-S and AF-I lenses that are equipped with an autofocus motor.
Blur caused by camera shake can turn a great shot into a fuzzy mess. Nikon’s VR (Vibration Reduction) lenses solve this,
allowing you to shoot handheld photos up to four stops slower* than when using lenses without VR. The results are crisp, sharp
images under conditions that would normally require use of a tripod. Additionally, unlike in-camera vibration reduction systems,
Nikon’s VR is in the lens — a fact that significantly improves viewfinder imaging.

Nikon VR system — Lending a steady hand for sharper images
What does “f” mean in
lens descriptions?
This refers to the maximum aperture of the lens. The
aperture is an adjustable opening in the lens that
determines how much light reaches the image sensor.
The smaller the “f” number, the larger the opening and
brighter the viewfinder.
What does “mm” mean in
lens descriptions?
This refers to the focal length of the lens in millimeters
(mm). Focal length determines the amount of
magnification. The larger the “mm” value, the greater the
magnification. Telephoto lenses have large “mm” values
while wide-angle lenses have smaller ones.
The unsurpassed reliability and ultra-precision of Nikon cameras and NIKKOR lenses earned them a place
in NASA’s famed Apollo lunar landing and Space Shuttle projects. To this day, Nikon continues to be the
photographic instrument of choice for explorers both on earth, and in the vastness of outer space. Every
NIKKOR embodies this tradition, delivering peerless performance for photographers who demand only
the best.
