Revainrating 4 out of 5

I'm satisfied with it, there are only some small flaws.

Satisfied of course. It's better to have several lenses if you have a lot of money, I don't have much. Only one wife should be. Got pros: Easy to use, very easy to turn the focus ring, literally with one finger, quiet motor, fast autofocus, bright enough, zoom accordingly. I didn’t feel the price, I took it from my hands in a kit with a Nikon D90 carcass. In general, satisfied, if not to compare. And if you compare, then there will never be joy, because there will always be better. Its cons…

Good product at a good price, I recommend to try it.

I have it, because I was with a whale, the same camera in the form of a body was sold as much as 2022. cheaper. I decided to take it with a whale, so that in which case I can use it when traveling around the world. I eventually exchanged for 18-200, but this is a different price category. Pros: Sufficient range of distances, the difference from 18-200 is actually not as great as it seems. As a travel zoom, very much so. Light. In direct hands it is capable of decent shots. The price tag is…

Very high quality product, it's not the first time I bought it.

I bought it as a replacement for the whale 18-55 VR. Very, very satisfied. I repeat - subjectively - it is more pleasant in terms of color reproduction and the amount of light. Now you do not need to think about buying 55+. I join the opinion of others - this is a super-successful glass from Nikon ! Pros: Excellent travel zoom. I am in awe of the versatility of FR. Even impromptu indoor portraits come out good. The impression is that it collects more light than stated. I didn't notice the…

Best thing for the money, glad I did it.

I bought it from my hands to the Nikon D3100 camera, I am satisfied with the purchase. There is a hood included. Value for money - just super, the photos are good (you can go to my page :) ) I am satisfied with the purchase. I advise to buy novice photographers, like me, to master photography Got pros: Universal zoom allows you to shoot both in a limited space and in the open with the use of approximation. Image stabilization works on a solid five. Minimum chromatic aberration. Autofocus…

Great value for the money, definitely recommended!

I think the lens is more than worthy for its money. The rest is either "unlucky", or chatter . There were canons with a fleet of optics . I refused because the lenses simply did not become (f. F., B. F.) It turned out soap. I took D 90 from 18-105 - I enjoy life . Then I bought more: 70-300; 50(1.4), 24-70(2.8). And all from NIKON. I'm glad, and I wish you all the same. Got pros: Focal lengths, focusing speed and volume, Stabilizer, X. A., sharpness, equipment . With its cons. Desire for more…

I definitely recommend buying, I didnt notice any disadvantages.

Before that, I used the old version of Nikkor 18-55 as a whale. The difference is noticeable. The new Nikon 18-55 (for example, with the D60) is something in between. With its pros. Good whale. Bought to replace the old 18-55. The range of focal lengths is almost always enough. I think that another category of focal lengths starts from 80-90 mm. If something needs to be removed far away, I hook Sigma 70-300. Sharpness, saturation, contrast are good. I like the drawing very much. Internal…

I like the product, the quality did not disappoint.

It was supposed to suit everyone, but it will not completely suit anyone. Sheer half measures. I do not advise taking it except in a whale. For "non-artistic" shooting, enough for a lifetime. Got pros: Price, maximum versatility for such money, "whale". After a couple of months of use, it will give you a 100% understanding of which lens to take next. Its cons: A bit dark, soapy, narrow for architecture, landscapes, a little short for telephoto shooting (high zoom), a bit soft for macro. The

The price/quality ratio is great, I will buy again.

The best result can be achieved only for much more money. So as a transitional option, that's it. Got pros: Versatility. A lens for all occasions. Good value for money. The presence of a stabilizer allows you to shoot at slow shutter speeds in the dark and indoors. Considering the price, it fully lived up to expectations. The focal range will allow you to do without a telephoto for some time. Cons: Quite bulky in terms of size and weight. For travel you will need something wider, like 18-200 at

Great product, a pleasure to use.

I think for the first lens it is one of the best in its category. Compared to 18-55 and 18-200, it is more interesting in the picture and sharper, only macro shots from it are not so hot. For the first time, aperture can be compensated by an external flash in the room. Has pros: Sharp, versatile range 18-105, light, stabilization, color reproduction. With its cons. Yes, they are not available when buying with a whale, not counting the plastic mount.

Everything about the product satisfied me, the price is perfect.

VR is a "magic" thing! How did you take pictures before without it? In a "calm state", "handheld", at 18mm it is possible to remove for 1/2 second without lubrication. When focusing, the outer parts of the lens do not move. Personally, I have enough FR range in 99% of situations. Pros below: Universal FR range, high resolution across the entire FR and aperture range, VR, focus ring. Some cons: Geometric distortions on the DF <24mm<, XA on the entire range, with increasing DF slightly decrease…

What you need, a cool purchase, I advise you.

It came with my d7100. In principle, it’s a good workhorse, for a price of 5-6 thousand it’s a good option. It doesn’t make sense to take a new one. 140; or 70-300 vr if ed dx, which again on the secondary is very tasty for the price Pros: -universal fr range -the weight - cost in the secondary market - good sharpness even at the long end -practically absent x / a - good stabilizer Cons below: -Autofocus cannot be called slow, but you can’t call it super fast either. On the Nikon 7100, it…

I am not disappointed, the quality is satisfying.

It's just a good starting glass. With him, after leaving Canon, I shot several thousand frames and naturally moved to the next step. Changed to Sigma 17-70. But if you do not have the financial ability, then purely technically the 18-105 remains a worthy lens in its niche. Different pros: The advantages of this lens, in my opinion, are comparative. If we take the functional and price analog of Canon'a, ie. 18-135, which also goes like a whale to some cameras, then the Nikon lens is…

Nice price, good quality.

In terms of the combination of characteristics, the lens is ideal for an undemanding user. The low price and good optical performance have done their job - the lens is very popular. Its pros: Relatively small weight and dimensions, normal design, excellent range of focal lengths. Very good sharpness throughout the range and color reproduction for such an inexpensive zoom. Chromatic aberrations are minimal. Internal quiet focus. Some cons: What immediately catches the eye when using this lens is

Perfect product for any user!

I sold this one, I bought 50 / 1,4G I was waiting for a miracle, but my former whale turned out to be faster, more accurate and quieter than the new one, more expensive! Each of these two has its own merits, but the 18-105vr is a hassle-free, really cool lens, and it's also inexpensive. I regret selling it. Pros below: Very fast and accurate! Very quiet, very sharp lens! The build quality and materials are excellent! The stabilizer knows his stuff. PRICE! Universal in focal length! Cons: A bit…

I didnt expect the quality to be so high.

For such money - a good lens, IMHO. I took it as a staffer - I'm satisfied. There are practically no problems with it. I recommend. Some pros: Good picture, good build quality (although the sharpening ring is a little loose). It is quickly aimed even in low light. Convenient focus. Different cons: Luminosity, of course. Retractable trunk. Filmed one evening - could not focus on infinity (although there was poor contrast, so goodbye)

The price/quality ratio is great, I will buy again.

I am an amateur, I bought this lens a year ago on the d60, to replace my whale 18-55, and I have never regretted it ! The most optimal price, you feel the difference after 18-55, even something resembling bokeh appears) I advise everyone who has not yet realized how much the photo dragged them -) Some pros: An excellent lens for daily use, for amateurs - what you need ! especially if you take 18-55 to replace Different cons: I don't think they are! personally for me) although the only thing I…

All is well, liked the product, didn't buy it for nothing.

A good alternative to the regular 18-55. The 105th Zoom draws portraits well, only the cool bokeh is missing to put 5. It is rather weak for wedding shooting and all kinds of reports. If you really want versatility, then it is better to take a lens with a maximum focal length of 120,135,200. Be sure to buy a protective filter . :)) With its pros. Fast focus, built-in motor, good stabilization (VR), sharpness. "presentable" appearance - especially with a hood . :))) Its cons: Weak bokeh, tight…

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

I bought it for work together with the D5000, it turned out that even a couple. I immediately protected it with an ultraviolet filter, now it remains to buy a polarizing one. For hiking in the mountains the best option. In a word, I recommend! On February 22, I went to Beshtau, the weather was terrible: wind, -10-15C, snow, a camera with a lens all the time in my hands, but they survived and focusing and VR worked perfectly. Having slipped the support several times, I found it with the lens, I…

Pros
  • Fast autofocus, excellent ergonomics, powerful vibration compensator. Good value for money. Versatility with small size and weight. I got Thai. Comes with lens hood and semi-hard case. The front lens does not rotate - makes it possible to install gradient and other filters that do not allow rotation thereof. Convenient zoom ring - rubberized, tight, wide. The hood gives vignetting only at 18mm. Under its own weight, it does not fold and does not leave. Good close protection.
Cons
  • The plastic mount is not as scary as it is painted. It is extremely weak for indoors, but for these purposes you need to buy a flash or . another lens. Gives a large shadow when using the built-in flash. Blocks the half of the frame when autofocus is illuminated with the standard camera illumination. Chromatic aberrations, back focus after impact due to a loose bolt on a poor quality tripod with poor quality hands. Pincushion distortion.

One of the best offers, glad I bought it.

they write a lot about soap - it’s not accuracy in focusing and they immediately sin on the lens, or maybe the carcass itself is not aligned, everyone who tries the fix immediately puts it away, but zoom is primarily efficiency in work, while you run around with your legs doing cropping - the moment will pass, I saw photos taken at a wedding by one pro who used an autofocus fifty dollars with an aperture of 1,4, almost 75% of the marriage due to the fact that, without having time to crop the…

Pros
  • price, light, focal, quite sharp
Cons
  • compared to other budget zooms, the difference in focal length

I am amazed at how well made the product is, just magical!

I bought a d7000 kit along with this lens. The difference for a carcass and a whale was about 5,000. Of course, 50mm is better than fixed, 18 wide, and 105 telephoto, but as long as you save money and understand what you need, it will allow you to take very good photos. Judging by the reviews, there are not very high-quality copies - check. If you need something of a higher quality, and you don’t need such a range of fr, then look towards the tamron 17-50 2.8 without a stub (about 13t. R.). He

Pros
  • 1) Sharp 2) Universal FR (focal lengths) 3) Well focused 4) Stabilizer
Cons
  • It would be easier to shoot at night if it were 1.4)) Probably not the most durable.
