I have seen that.
Dangit, it's shame this is for DX. Certainly would buy one immediately for FX. What a near miss.

It is a shame that it has no VR.

Is it even "possible", "feasible" or "reasonable request" for such lens? Just asking, I don't know what would be the size difference with VR. Maybe DX bodies could get VR IBIS too, to solve this issue.

Maybe that lens was supposed to be launched with a DX body with IBIS.

Sony used to launch small DX primes with VR while their cameras did not have IBIS.

This little lens with a Zfc can give the Fuji (grossly overpriced) X100V a run for its money.

It would have made the Zfc kit a lot more interesting if it was ready in time for that launch - instead we got a FF lens that's now obsolete on DX

And how come is obsolete, and suddenly stop working because of this release?

There is a newer option that is smaller, lighter, and a stop and a half brighter - it's an upgrade over the 28mm in every way.

Sure. There is a one-year newer SUV than mine. But mine still works just fine!

I wish Nikon would release a DX body with IBIS

Rhetorical questions: Do we need them?

Not a DX user but IMO, it's small, it's light, it's a moderate focal length and people want it for the f/1.7 aperture to get narrower DOF. Given the use case, maybe VR isn't as necessary as you might first think.
