I thought that the " G " designation indicates there is No Aperture ring , Not country of Origin,..my 14 - 24 ....PC-E 24 and PC-E Micro 85 are G lenses and are made in Japan...
Recently have I aquired a Nikkor 70-210 f4.0 AF zoom for a mere sixty pounds,..I did Not expect too much , mainly to have something long for traveling, I was surprised how Fast Auto focus is as it " Flies into Focus " and Optical quality is Superb , a tad soft at 210mm , but just a tad...I had Not expected to get this much quality from this Old Timer , and it is the f4.0 Constant Aperture mentioned here..Morale is , them AF Lenses Can be Fast and Good...mounted on : D1 / D1x...D3s / D3X and Kodak SlrN.
You are correct G means, no aperture ring and aperture is controlled by camera (sub)command dial.
