I have had this lens for about 4 months now, on the front of a D40 and more recently a D90 and have got to say its amazing. great, sharp, image quality, excellent build quality and the VR works really well. To be honest, if you are on the road or out and about shooting its really all you need. The only time I can think that you would want something else would be for serious macro work, ultrazoom or perhaps indoor portraits. This lens is pricey, that’s for sure, but it is worth every penny!

Hello, I purchased this lenses for my D5000 Nikon camera. I’m quite happy with them although the image quality looks exactly the same to me as the Nikkor 18-55 lens kit.This one is, of course, a more powerfull lens, a good superzoom, which means I can carry them in my travels without having to change lenses all the time.
It looks well built, it’s plastic made and a bit heavy but that’s ok to me since it’s the first lens I buy for my first DSLR camera, I’m still learning but I wanted a good quality lenses. When you move the ring it moves softly and firm.
Prior to this one I owned a Tamron 18-200 with no VR which I didn’t like much because the image quality wasn’t as good as the kit the camera came with. This ones are far better than the Tamron (and far more expensive too).
Some people say this lens creep, mine doesn’t, when I point the camera down with the lock in the Off position, nothing happens, lens not moving a bit. Maybe when they get old they will creep, but not now. Hopefully they won’t never creep.
So at the moment I’m very happy with them but I still think they are a bit overpriced, that’s why the 4 stars over 5.
