Pros:IT DOES EVERYTHING!! Light and compact, lAF is very precise and fast, stabilization equally efficient, and sharpens above average for the type of optics that does everything !!
Cons:Slight chromatic aberration at 200mm, lack of tropicalization.
Opinion:Actually, after a long militancy, with satisfaction, with APS-C on my d-7200, I switched to FX with the D750 and D780, and so, wrongly, I sold this lens. But I missed it as a handyman's goal, even though I also had a 24-120 f/4 (fascinated as the 18-200), I needed something more extensive, and so I bought it back by associating it with a D5600 x just in case. What to say, it's really good with excellent sharpness up to 150 even at minimal diarammia, it drops slightly to 200mm, but then , frankly, there is no comparison with a certain average economic competition, I personally consider it one of the best superzooms still on the market, it has taken me in a lot of situations managing to take photos on the fly that I certainly would never have been able to do with a set of interchangeable optics, even if not very bright, always manages to give the best of itself in many situations where readiness and speed make the difference. Now, you find it at a very affordable price.. for me really great and definitely worth + how much it costs.
Pros:Lightweight, small, very large zoom range, precise AF, efficient stabilization, sharp F 8 from 18 to 170 mm, is solid even though it does not look like it.
Cons:Price, vignette, soft at full opening, a bit of AC at full aperture, cutting the maximum focal length at short distances of MaF, ridges ridiculous.
Opinion:Travel optics, lightweight, a handyman par excellence, I also use it on the D 810, where it is sharper than on the D 7000. If one uses it for what it is intended to do, it's a great optic, you are almost photographed everything is fine. On a pixellated camera, it's also a great back up optic, it puts a very decent piece on good optics in case of a breakdown, especially when traveling, and is small and light. Ever since I started photographing in digital in 2009 and never bothered, the shot I always do, I'm very happy.
Pros:Practicality, color rendering, image stabilization, fast AF
Cons:Recently called on the new 24 MP sensor, dim
Opinion:The best travel rounder for its enormous zoom range and precision AF. It allows you to never change the objective and has an excellent performance especially on DX bodies up to 12MP. On sensors to 24MP starting to be a bit 'soft but always it returns the beautiful images. There are countless situations where it is convenient to have such a wide range of focal lengths not to miss the moment of the shot! And 'better zoom 18-200 for the Nikon mount and much more lightweight and convenient to carry the new 18-300.
Pros:Versatility in practice on the go and just take this and fast and fairly quiet autofocus.
Cons:chromatic aberration, weight, soft construction, the zoom rubber comes off immediately.
Opinion:I mount on a D90 in practice for 6 years, a few times I preferred to others because it is versatile and covers large distances. Sometimes it leaves something to be desired in poor lighting conditions. I use it mostly for travel reasons. Not at all clear to TA but as optical handyman there may be. Price again maybe a bit 'high. However as the I exploited has paid for itself for years.
Pros:Zoom range, ease of use, ability to carry around a single lens while traveling
Cons:Expensive than the competition, distortion at extreme focal
Opinion:Bought a few months ago and used for a trip to America and Mexico has not given me any problems or constructive focus. The build quality as well as the sharpness of the picture is not maximum but could also be in a lens with a zoom range that was born to minimize the camera kit to take back. Slightly expensive if bought new, it introduces distortion and vignetting at wide apertures and / or focal extreme, easily fixed in post. Goal still very comfortable and '' all-rounder ''. Fully satisfied with my purchase while recognizing certain limits in the construction, the cost and the quality optics.
