Pros: Good autofocus, great extension

Cons: Not high second-hand price

Opinion: Test thoroughly on the D700, I consider it an honest lens that does its job as long as you close it at f8, below it remains soft like all those of the film era and on FF it has an obvious vignetting. I have not tested it on apsc, surely with the crop factor according to my point of view it should be sharper at the edges unlike the FF. For portraiture remains an excellent lens as it returns a soft and creamy file, for the price that is used I recommend it, certainly do not expect miracles.

Pros: Weight; price; macro;

Cons: I don't see any

Opinion: There is no objective and absolute way to evaluate optics, so it depends on what are the expectations and the use that is made of them. I take pictures of landscapes, I use filters, easel, and I need a bag that is not very heavy, I am not a professional, I also make audio recordings in the field, so I ride with double equipment. In addition to a fixed 20mm f1.8, which is my favorite, I needed a zoom with which to have different possibilities both for landscapes, framing details, and to be able to capture even some non-human animal that presented itself to me in my travels in nature. This lens is a perfect travel companion, which contains all the features I was looking for. Obviously the difference is made by those who photograph, so I also recommend viewing the many examples of shots that are below, to understand the remarkable potential of this lens with a single price.

Pros: Value for money. Good optical quality, macro function.

Cons: Some flare problem in the backlight

Opinion: Recently purchased on the bay, winning an auction for only 150€. Used on the D700 I find it great as a handyman. On the d700 it is very balanced and I do not find any contraindications. Sharp, engraved images. Highly recommended if you find a used in good condition. Some complain about the weight but a zoom starting at f/2.8 cannot have "minimal" dimensions. A little soft to TA and extreme focal points, but it resolves by diaphragm a little.

Pros: Optical Quality, Macro

Cons: It weighs a lot

Opinion: As I said for the 3.5-4.5 model review: you do a lot of talking about Nikon's 35mm/full frame average zooms, there are vague videos, articles, sites etc. to understand the differences between the versions above, that date in fullframe kit some have ago with filters from 67 and the latest version, the one with VR. I read everything about these 3 lenses and used them together and tested them for a long time both on fullframe and aps-c (dx). Leaving aside the technical speeches, I will come only to the hard, the only real usable lens is the 2.8-4 IF, the other 2 I found simply useless. Of course if you don't even have a lens it will help you to make generic photos but other than that you do little. The real difference is the version 2.8-4 IF Macro, the autofocus is not very fast but the colors are beautiful, the portraits have the right gap between subject and background, the glass of which it is composed feels that they are "old school". It has the usual problem of being more oxen and cartoonfrom 70mm onwards but at 85 you make us a really nice portrait. Before changing system was the last Nikon zoom I held. Bought today at 180 degrees will disfigure any other zoom. If you are looking for absolute performance you have to buy a fixed optics.

Pros: small and versatile

Cons: full-open quality

Opinion: It is an optic that can give good results on APS if you do not climb too much with mpix. This is my first 'digital' optic that at the time I paired with a D70, but it must be considered that it was born as a lens for use on film; comparing it to other 'standard' zooms of other brands, then it proved much superior to the contrast and the general sharpness of the image, and allowed me to capture beautiful images. As the number of machine bodies grows, to get to the 12 mpix of the D300, unfortunately began to show all its limits and from my comparative tests with the -bistracted- AFS VR 24-120 3.5/5.6 at full opening is much more kneaded at the edges, and then gradually improve closing the diaphragm, but without ever exceeding the 24-120 and I must say that this result surprised me not a little, but t'a. Suitable for machines no more than 10 mpix, it is useless to think of using it on 24 mpix APS machines, there are around newer optics (type 18-55) and much better. vote 7
