Not super good, but not bad at all. It’s a perfect first lens in price and performance.
Comes in original, new box. Shipped well, very secure and safe. No dust or anything, fit perfectly, autofocus is quick.
Pretty great deal!

I found this Nikon lens online and the price was about $40 less than repairing the old lens or buying a new lens at the camera shops I checked in 2 states. I’m very satisfied with the new lens. It has provided me with excellent pictures in the short time I’ve had this particular lens. I’ve even had someone borrow my Nikon camera to use for a wedding over her cannon camera because of the way it performs better than her Cannon.

We have had a chance to use this lens on our new D5100 and are quite happy with the combination. One of the shortfalls with the camera is that the flash is a bit weak. This lens more than compensates for this because it’s so much “shorter,” thereby allowing us to be closer to the subject which offsets the flash issue. We think this is a near perfect match for indoor and flash type settings and suggest you seriously consider this combination.

I recommend this to anyone who is just starting to get into DSLR cameras it is a realty good product. As for the seller they did a good job packaging it and getting it to me when it was supposed to
I love the compact size and the affordable price. Its unfortunate that I couldn’t find the same lenses that I had for my N65 file camera or be able to interchange the lenses between the two cameras but that’s planned obsolescense for you.

The lens is just what he hoped for..clear, professional..wonderful. we will continue to purchase photography accessories through Amazon

I took several photos of them as they worked to get ready for the upcoming High School season. I took several closeups shots of the young ladies as they batted, pitched, and fielding the ball. All were action shots and they came out very good.

I tried it and first impressions are awesome. This thing is a wide zoom lens with macro ability. I can get as close as 3 inches from the subject. Very crisp clear images. It might be little slow focusing but I don’t care. I am planing use this lens for portraits only

My first DSLR, and my first lens. I bought a second-hand D200 and ordered this lens. I am very happy with the quality, and the focus speed is amazing. The VR function on the lens is worth its weight in gold while shooting free-hand. I am going to order the 55-300 Nikkor VR next as a companion to this lens. To anyone purchasing a lens, I seriously recommend this as a starter lens.
