Nikon 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5G ED IF AF-S DX Nikkor Zoom Lens - White Box(Bulk Packaging)

The lens arrived in good condition and worked perfectly with my D300. It is a great walk-around lens for general use. I primarily shoot fan conventions and this lens allowed me to get in close to the subject but still capture wide shots which is nice. The image quality is good, but requires a flash (or really good light) when shooting indoors to keep this lens happy. However, this lens really shines when used to take photographs outdoors, making it perfect to take on vacation!

Muy buena óptica, funcionamiento correcto. Me gusto.

I bought this lens for an IR converted Nikon. The lens arrived well packaged, looking like a new lens.I would not hesitate to buy from this seller again.

This is a fine lens - the pictures are sharp, it's relatively small and light. The construction quality is decent. It does show vignetting when shot wide open and zoomed to 18mm, but you can either Photoshop that out, along with the barrel distortion, or set the camera to remove the distortion. Photoshop does a better job, but the in-camera processing (on a D5000) works well enough if you want out-of-the-camera JPEGs.The lens hood on mine shows at 18mm - a bit of a disappointment for a lens of this cost and overall quality. I had to file off the corners to get it right.With no VR, I'm going to use it more at the wide end than the telephoto. If you're dead set on VR, don't want the cheesy 18-55 and have more money to spend, go for the 18-105 or the 16-85.

Definitely worth every penny and effort as UPS delivered it to someone else house! Lol but my neighbor was kind enough to track my house down and bring it to me!!!! Yay

Having purchased a D40 Kit, I got to look at the 18-55 lens. Certainly a bargain priced Nikkor to compete with the Canons. The 18-70 new style ED IF lens is far and away the heavy duty superior. I ordered one and immediately noticed the differences. The optical quality of the little lens isn't really bad at all, but the 18-70 is certainly better. The greater reach also helps keep it on the camera most of the time.It's heftier construction and feel is more steady and sharper. While there is some distortion at the low end under certain conditions, like most DSLR zoom lenses, it is not readily noticeable, and only occurs under certain conditions. Certainly not a deal killer!This 18-70 is the one you will have on the camera most of the time, and can take the job and do the work. Overall a heavy duty Nikkor with a reasonable price, and tack sharp results. You'll like it!

I can only say WoW. Yeah some will say this is a "nice mid price lens". I say it is a super quality product. Yes, it is a kit lens, yes it has a plastic body, but it's a kit lens with some real quality construction. First, unlike many kit lenses, this lens has a metal mount. It's no ordinary kit lens. It produces razor sharp images. I've been using it with extension tubes. I have to tell you this lens produces much better images then my 18-105. The 18-105 tends to fall off around the edges, but not this baby, it has precision and makes some great images. I'm using it on a Nikon D70. It uses the same size filters as the 18-105.I am so... so glad I bought it. You should buy one too. You'll love it. It's outstanding.

Decent lenses to start off with, definetely had a lot of dust. The zoom ring is rather sticky. The focus ring is amazing.
