I am satisfied, the purchase is quite successful.

I bought a dispersed D7000, but then I realized that with at least a slightly wide angle I would not be able to shoot so soon, and I had to buy more. If it were not for the ear that flew off, I would never regret buying it. There is no replacement for him with my funds. LIKE WRONG WHEN PURCHASING. I have the same one, but AF-S, when I first bought AF-P, he refused to focus on the D7000.

Pros
  • + Focusing is good (in relative twilight, the motor is also fast, in my opinion faster than a screwdriver in the D7000) + Relatively light + You can’t find other lenses with a focal length of <35mm for a human price, perhaps - this is the only option if you need people in an apartment to fit into the frame completely + Also a stabilizer for such a price! +Even some semblance of background blur is feasible +Built-in motor +Popular hood and filter/cap thread sizes
Cons
  • - noisy motor -The stabilizer beeps at high frequencies (almost no one hears except me) -Darkish -With filters on, it catches the inverted reflection reflected from the lens itself (can be seen in the attached night photo) -To be honest, I practically did not see the stabilizer work, it seems to be there, but it seems not -PLASTIC BAYONET! Damn him. A weak blow to the bag with the camera, with the lens put on it, and now: the fastening eye flew off, got into the shutter mechanism, because of which it jammed, the crumbs from all this plastic business poured onto the mirror, matrix , and God knows where else. Fortunately, the shutter mechanism itself was not damaged. Lens repair costs 1500r, Alik has a 700r interchangeable bayonet mount (the same poor, if not worse) . Without this eyelet, the lens is sometimes not detected or the image is just black. Miser pays twice. Although, if the bayonet was metal, the camera might have been damaged, who knows. In commission shops I see a bunch of such whales with their ears torn off.

Great quality, did not expect at all for the price.

As a normal lens, it is quite practical and produces a smooth image. I am happy with my purchase, I took it with the Nikon D5300 True, which strangely labels it as Nikkor 18-140: This lens has an outstanding stabilizer compared to the old AF-S 18-55, and in the evening I shoot handheld at slow shutter speeds. page=0 page=0 page=0 page=0

Pros
  • Excellent stabilizer, quick and silent autofocus, and good sharpness.
Cons
  • They are not for me.

A valuable purchase, some advantages!

I made a mistake when choosing a lens and I got a Nikon 18-55mm f / 3.5-5.6G AF-P VR DX in the kit, which I was very happy about. I like to shoot a child on video, in this regard it is indispensable, the first Nikon lens sharpened for video shooting, it's a pity that it's the only one. Got pros: Fast and quiet focusing, works great when shooting video. The design is well complicated, no backlash and jamming. The picture is at a normal, budget level, its money is definitely worth it. Got cons: A

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

I got it like a whale to 3300. I say right away, a stepper motor is a thing! Of course, in this regard, Nikon is in the role of catching up, but this is not about that now. Autofocus is very quiet, with good lighting, focusing is instantaneous, at dusk runs from beginning to end are possible, but this happens quite quickly. The focusing ring is not directly connected to the lenses, so it is unrealistic to accidentally roll it up and break the lens with it, the design will not allow it. The…

Pros
  • Quiet and fast autofocus, good stub. In general, all the advantages of a stepper motor.
Cons
  • Minor flaws in the assembly, but you don’t expect more from a whale object

I did not regret the purchase, everything is fine.

Goes like a whale. I have a kit with Nikon D5600. Usually whale lenses act as plugs, "if only it were", but then, suddenly, it turned out that the lens could very well show something decent. By itself, the D5600 carcass is a bit dark, and with this whale I rarely expose less than 800 ISO, but in good lighting it gives a very clear picture. Older cameras may require firmware to support AF-P lenses as there are no additional controls on this one, just the focus, zoom, and lens park buttons…

Pros
  • Very fast, grippy and silent autofocus (on supported cameras) thanks to new focus motor A very nice focus ring - it's a pleasure to twist it just like that))) Gives a good image, a head or two better than older whales No back/front focus (tested on D5600, D610, Df)
Cons
  • Dark but tolerable Aperture above f / 7.1 should be used with caution, because. can somewhat spoil the picture with aberrations. Operating range 3.5-7.1 But for this amount, it's already nit-picking.
