Very satisfied
By Ted Gocal
I ordered this on 4/24/14 and received it on 4/26. I used it that day and the next and so far I am very impressed. I'm using it on a D300. There are purists that will say that all super zooms are garbage, but I've been shooting as a hobbyist since the 60's and this is the best zoom lens I've ever had. Very sharp, with fast and accurate focusing. I was trying to decide between the previous (heavier) Nikkor 18-300 and the forthcoming Tamron 16-300, then this lens came along. I think I made the right decision.

I like this lens
By Richard
First thing you notice when you open the Amazon box is the small size of the Nikon product box. It just doesn't look like it would house a telephoto lens - especially an 18-300mm lens. Upon opening the box, it is indeed a small lens for what it is. It's weight is 550 grams compared to the hefty 828 grams of the original 18-300mm lens it replaces. 550 grams is also about the same weight of the 18-200mm lens. This newer lens is lighter, smaller and less expensive than the lens it replaces.

I replaced and sold my 18-200mm, and my 55-300mm for this one.

It is true, and I was a bit mystified, that this lens does not come with a lens bag or a lens hood. But on the other hand, the Nikon lens bags do nothing to protect the lens in any way. So I always buy my own. And as far as the lens hood goes, ken Rockwell recommends you leave it home anyways when using this lens.

I've taken a few shots and the images are impressive to my non-technical eyes. I believe, as my research concludes, that this lens is just as good if not better than the lens it replaces,

If my review was helpful, and I hope it was, please choose the yes option in the comments section below. Thank you. Richard

Great lens as always from Nikon
By islandsound
I wanted this for a trip that is coming up so I don't have to change lenses constantly. I do like to limit myself to fixed focal length lenses but when you want an all in one as your go to lens this is the best one to get. This is almost the exact same size and weight of the 18-140 that is also an awesome lens but I personally wanted something with a longer focal length and was an all in one solution. Nice and balanced, fast accurate focus, great zoom and all around if this is the only lens you have I can't see how you will be disappointed. This is a nice addition to my ever growing assortment of lenses. I often contemplate going with something off brand but always come back to Nikon lens for my D7100.
