AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR Lens

This is standard lens; relatively small and pretty good quality. It is not all that robust so needs to be treated with care, but gives excellent definition even to the edges.

Pros:
-Price: for low price you get good lens for beginner.
-VR: this feature is very usefull when taking pictures in dark environment.
-Weight: light lens for traveling.

Cons:
-Dark at 55mm.
-Rotating end when focusing: problematic when using polarising filter.
-Variable lenght when zooming or focusing: sucks dust.
-Plastic bayonet: not very good, if frequently changing your lens.

Price/performance: very good.

The product arrived and was accurately described. The lens is as new. An excellent product and extremely resonably priced.

the lensae is very good,light, and easy to use.the only second thoughts i had about it was the colour, not the normal black lense, but what the hell even i can get trendy at my age.

I orginally had this lens as it came with the camera in a kit.

I knew nothing about photography, or how to use a DSLR, and here was one sitting in front of me, that I'd spent a fair amount of money on... Looking at it, it was a very daunting prospect of having to use this snazzy bit of technology. I looked as though there were so so many different settings I had to use...

But with this lens on automatic, I have been shooting photographs for 2 years now, with no problems!

I have several lenses, but always come down to using this one on a day to day basis, as it simply works itself.

It is perfect for shooting with the kids, as I can zoom in and out easily (the different range is very good!) allowing me to take perfect photographs of my three wild toddlers.

Its for this reason, that when I dropped my camera down the stairs with this lens on, and something snapped from it, I had to hop straight online and order a new one instantly.

This is my day to day lens, for just about anything!

This Lens is very average and ok for the beginner. I have found that it is very delicate and the auto-mechanism breaks very easily. not a lens i will be buying again.

I've never really had a poor Nikon lens, so that speaks for itself. I bought the lens as I needed a wider angle as I only had a Nikon G 70-300mm. I haven't used the lens very much yet but what use I've had I'm very satisfied. I did initially feel the Nikon G lens gave better results but it is a little early to really say, overall I'm certainly not disappointed.
