Review on New Nikon 18-105mm Vibration Reduction πŸ“· Zoom Lens with Auto Focus for Nikon DSLRs by Seo Jun ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A high-quality product, the price corresponds to the quality.

It is very good in its price category, I liked night shooting, background blur, landscapes, color rendition. Definitely a tripod at night. A few tips for beginners: 1-Before buying, make a table: here is my example-natural landscape=60% cityscape=10% night shot=10% macro=5% portrait=5% street photo=5% rest=5 %. Based on this, 18-105 is the best option for me. For portrait and macro (sometimes) I will buy an inexpensive fix 50mm 1.8d with a set of macro rings. 3-Do not read comparisons of zooms with other categories of glasses - it's not correct, it's the same as comparing a UAZ with a Mercedes and it's not even about the price - different purposes. 3- A lot of marriage - hence the different reviews, if there is no experience, invite an experienced one to the store photographer to test the lens, and even for money, I wonder why there is still no such service - I would have used it myself. At least you will come home with a lens, and not with a bar of soap for 10-20 thousand or more, so that later you can change or wander around services wasting time and nerves, and not every city has one. Good luck!

Pros
  • Good focal lengths, stabilizer, manual fine-tuning of the focus, comfortable to hold in your hands, solidly assembled, the price in a whale of 8.5 thousand is very good.
Cons
  • Small distortions at the short end - it's not critical for me, I shoot starting from 24, maybe the plastic bayonet mount will also teach me to use it carefully.

Different pros: Not particularly heavy, especially good at night photos. Its cons: Small aperture, the image is not very saturated, the sharpness is not enough, but all this can be fixed in Photoshop.
