Pros: Great all-rounder, AF fast, true in colors, sharpness

Cons: Nothing.

Opinion: I mounted it on the Nikon D500, replacing the Nikon 18-140. I immediately saw a marked improvement in everything, AF very fast, beautiful colors and better sharpness. It's a bit heavy and expensive (.1,100), but it's a fantastic lens that gives you great shots, it has never failed, even in the night photos. It is a very strong goal, always ready to give you magnificent results, which make you soon forget its weight and its cost!! For a photoamateur, it's an exceptional travel companion, and it allows you not to take other goals with you. If you are not a professional, I highly recommend it.

Pros: zoom range, construction

Cons: Contrast

Opinion: I have used extensively this goal in the most diverse situations. The weight made amends and becomes negligible for what you can do with a similar zoom range. The photos are "somewhat flat" in the sense that as contrast and sharpness is not to vote 10 (7.5 would give), but surely, with a bit of workflow concepts, postproduction and Photoshop, you can make up very well (as you will see flipping through my galleries). For the rest, those who buy this goal knows what he wants: a handyman. Therefore, contrast and sharpness are not obviously at a high level. But for those who started taking photographs and do not yet know the technique and which generally prefers to jump is great. I would defiantly recommend in this situation because, as my personal experience, the satisfactions, also big, with this aim, me are removed. It's all about weighing up the purchasing choices and being critical. There are people with thousands of Euros and equipment that make mediocre photos. So if you attempt a first serious approachto photography and with the desire to experiment and learn, with this objective went well for me because, as I repeat, the construction is really good and overall good performance.

Pros: Great goal, made good in all situations, natural colors, even the good brightness'

Cons: I have told everyone ... The rest is not true !!!

Opinion: By mistake I reviewed another 18-300 also wanted to strike a blow at this wonderful object indeed, many spears! I used it on the go and I 'comfortable result, I regret that my health condition I was not allowed to do a lot of photos were the first photos with il18-300 and I brought home good memories, has not failed even in night shots, combined with all Nikon D 7200 it has' proved a real monster! A bit 'bulky and heavy, but I soon got used to and still the game is worth the candle, if I had not taken an auction in the middle' price I would have bought even 1000 Euros. Faithful in the colors, sharpness, fast AF, good magnification, materials needless to say is' a bull. Not a professional but if someone asked me if I would tell him to take it should have because it is' 'a great traveling companion, sunset will be very birth' the first that I put in backpack

Pros: true all do color rendering clarity in any situation wonderful colors quality material feels great to the touch

Cons: weight ?? made amends for the results

Opinion: I'm really excited about this perspective on a D7100 is superb at last when I go out for a ride with the car port only one lens and I'm bringing home the shots is a wonderful little pesantuccio than competitors but made amends for yield and build quality to the touch from the feel of a professional optical

Pros: Sharpness in the center, blurred, robustness, versatility, af fast and quiet considering the midrange.

Cons: Loss of definition at the edges and the focal limit to TA and TC. Only body APSC.

Opinion: Purchased in place of the various kit 18-105 or 18-140 I must say that, as a handyman and optics as the beginning for those who want to try their hand in various fields of photography in general, without buying ($$$) specific targets blindly, is more than a great compromesso.rnLo use in 80% of the time and can give me back shots that do not seem the result of compromises with definition, sharpness, color rendition, contrast. Quite the contrary! RnUtilizzato with Nikon D7100, in my case, you have a telephoto 450mm, usable for sports photos and some photos naturalistic. Do not go into the details of construction or defects linked to aberrations, distortion, etc., However, because all solvable more than sufficiently in pp. However for the zoom range that could not not have them. rnIl weight personally I have no problem. rnLo advice to those who want to experience like me without fainting immediately with most optical, expensive and heavy. I do not know his brother 3.5-6.3, but honestly for several tens of Euros of difference, I prefer a 5.6 to 300m and 9-blade diaphragm that a 6.3 and7 lamelle.rn

Pros: nice contrast, sharp, true all-rounder, very practical, space x x who does not have other objectives and wants to have a good yield is great!

Cons: weighs, and is not quite as small as the others on the market 18-300

Opinion: I state, are the initial enthusiasm! ... I do motorcycle touring and wanting to carry a DSLR with a single goal, after having tried the nikon 18-105 kit, Sigma 70-300, and Tamron 18-270 .. . nikon 18-300 that I have found the best "all-rounder", recommend it to all those who do not want or can not carry around more 'goals, great compromise money-Check availability' plurifocale! ... very happy with the choice!

Pros: Contrast and sharpness. Ease of use

Cons: Heaviness

Opinion: Hello I want to express my comment on this goal. Honestly a bit 'skeptical at first because' we speak of a wide zoom with that implies in terms of sharpness and more .. I have to think again! Money well spent! I own a Nikon D300s with a large optical kit. I was missing a "wide zoom" for convenience 'and use and now I have to say I'm happy with the choice. Photo high contrast and good sharpness! Really recommended at all.

Pros: Objective handyman, sharp, high output quality and chromatic.

Cons: Obviously the weight, but you quickly get used then when you realize that you can safely start a day with a single goal.

Opinion: Provendo a 18-200 VR II, great lens, to whom I had recently associated with a Tamron 70-300 VC Usd.rnAvevo need more practicality and a goal-rounder with which to address different solutions scatto.rnIl 18-300 was soluzione.rnNonostante the weight and price, I did the best I could do. It 'a great lens, very sharp, with excellent color rendition.

Pros: Great lens, excellent sharpness in the center in some cases excellent, great strength and stabilizer. Chromaticity excellent and good contrast of the lens. Blurred thanks to the beautiful 9 blades diaphragm.

Cons: Loss of sharpness at the edges but for a zoom of this magnitude I think it's normal. A little heavy but because for years I've carried a 80/200 2.8 weight is there but does not bother most of the time, and certainly does not have the same quality.

Opinion: I bought this lens and I was honestly a bit 'hesitant to replace a part of my kit with only one objective seemed to be an impossible task. Boys (I call you guys even if signed in 56 years has little boy) after a few shots to the naked eye and to ascertain the ability to stabilize the lens, the quality of the results that can return makes me excited. After years of carrying pounds of equipment on his shoulder a perspective that does everything is wonderful, go out for a spot of photos with just one lens and be able to do almost everything, still can not believe. I saw the image below, produced, then postero some of my shots, confirm my impressions. I highly recommend. Good light at all.

Pros: The new lens also incorporates a nine blade rounded diaphragm to help achieve a natural looking dramatic separation between subject and background useful for nature photography and macro flora

Cons: a little heavy 830gr but made amends for the results

Opinion: The nice thing about the new 18-300mm DX lens is that you can go for a photo shoot for a day without carrying around a backpack full of accessori.Per Those who love traveling light this lens covers a lot of unexpected situations, even those not miss the moment to be seized , do not miss the zoom lock system that allows you to lock the lens elements so as not to slide the cylinders when transporting These lenses are designed to meet the needs of all types of photographers, from those looking to capture everything from family outings to the elusive wildlife and stunning scenery, excellent for reportage and street photography, and functional for all your needs
