"as many people by now have discovered, the 25-50 f/4 Nikkor is a true optical gem. it has a degree of colour vividness that only is matched or surpassed by the recent and hugely expensive AFS Nikkor 17-35/2.8 and AFS 28-70/2.8. there is very little colour fringing in this lens and it has remarkably good image rendition when stopped well down, a feat that very few modern zooms can match.
the design of the 25-50 makes it low in flare and ghosting. however, this is contingent upon two factors; viz. the internal glass surfaces must be clean, and the front and rear elements must be kept immaculately clean.
until the arrival of the two AFS Nikkors mentioned above, the 25-50/4 was one of my favourite Nikkor lenses and my preferred choice for landscape photography. I still use it on my F2 Titan, but no longer on either F5 or D1.
