18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 XR Di II LENS (NIKON AF)

Easy to use and saves carrying tw lenses.

Saves taking 2 lenses everywhere.

Dont think its as sharp as Nikon leses.

Excellent value for money Great for holidays as it saves carrying more than one lens

Loose zoom - only locks when fully wound in

Versatility, size (it's smaller thean the Nikon 70 - 200 lens we have). Bought it for my wife as she was always having to swop lenses alll the time. She is very pleased wih it.

Bit Heavy

Goog quality in really cheap price. Perfect zoom.

Bit slow autofocus.

excellent value for money, this lens is of good build and auto focus is smooth. comes with lens hood too.

none.

it is in a very good price for a telo- lens

lack of vibration reduction

Once focused, good picture quality.

Exceptionally loose zoom - look up or down on e.g. a tripod & it'll "fall" in or out. There is a zoom lock, but it only works when fully wound in. I have talked to the retailer about it & apparently it's normal. It's terrible! It comes with a hood...

Saves weight and room. Very versatile zoom range. Good images but superb using a tripod. Excellent value. Good quality and build.

The only 'bad' thing for me is the lens creep where under gravity, the zoom opens to its fullest extent when hanging down from your neck. At 18mm there is a lock which prevents this but once the lock is off, the zoom can open up and take you by...

full 18 to 200 mm in a single lens, no need to swap lenses, light weight.

tendency for barrel to "creep" is the lense is help vertically. noisy autofocus compared to nikkor 18-55 or 55-200 . plastic feel to the build.
