Summary: Unfortunately, two previous reviewers are wronf about the format, this is an FX lens that works well on my DX camera. I am taking shots that I could never have accomplished before -- 300mm at 1/30 second across a poorly lighted indoor pool is just the beginning. I have experienced NO LENS CREEP with a smooth yet firm zoom. I especially like that I can true up my focus without changing to manual mode. This is the best zoom lense for the money -- hands down.

reasonable utility lens, lens creep is an understatement
by sschifrin on July 28, 2008
Pros: wide usable range in focal length and speed
Cons: zoom tension is so loose, the barrel jumps out as the camera faces down
Summary: With the DX-format factor, it may be just a little too much lens, but the tension on the zoom is so loose that the barrel quickly and fully extends as ...

Summary: With the DX-format factor, it may be just a little too much lens, but the tension on the zoom is so loose that the barrel quickly and fully extends as the camera hangs over my shoulder. It makes me hesitate to keep it on the camera as my first utility lens.

- Manufacturer: Nikon Inc.
- Part number: 2161
- Description: High-power 4.3x Telephoto Zoom-Nikkor lens (Approximates the picture angle performance of a 105-450mm lens on 35mm SLR). Vibration Reduction (VRII) minimizes the effects of camera shake allowing photographers to shoot handheld at as many as 4 shutter speeds slower than would otherwise be possible, assuring dramatically sharper images. When used on Nikon DX format DSLR Two Nikon Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass elements deliver superior optical performance for both digital and 35mm photography. ED glass minimizes chromatic aberrations, contributing to superb contrast and resolution performance. Internal Focus (IF) provides fast and quiet auto focusing without changing the length of the lens, retaining subject-working distance through the focus range. Focus as close as 4.9 ft throughout entire zoom range. Non-Rotating front element provides for convenient use of circular polarizing filters and the Nikon Wireless Close-Up Speedlight System. A Silent Wave Motor (SWM) enables fast and quiet autofocusing, along with quick switching between autofocus and manual operation (M/A and M). A nine-blade rounded diaphragm opening, out-of-focus elements appear more natural.
