Pros: very light, sharp, excellent focal range, colors, price

Cons: nobody

Opinion: Bought for 35 € on the bay, mounted on my d610 to travel, when I'm around I never detach it unless I need a canvas or a wide angle pushed for some more studied photos. As for me sharp at all focal lengths, distorts and vignettes a little at 28mm but it corrects itself quietly in post, it really gave me some interesting travel photos even in low light conditions, if you are interested you can look at my travel gallery to get a direct idea. At this price find silly flaws, of course it has, the plastic bayonet terrifies me for example, or the fact that it is super plastic in general, but otherwise how would it be possible to find it at that price? And in any case, the optical quality remains fantastic so plastic is welcome to have it at that figure.

Pros: Lightweight and very cheap

Cons: Well it's not a blade

Opinion: I found it in kit with the f70 given to me by a relative, having an apsc (d7100) I did not find the focal lengths adequate to my needs so I sold it, I'm sorry to keep what I do not use.... From what little I tried I can say that if I had had an FF (maybe the d700) I would have kept it, at the level of sharpness it does not seem evil and given the low weight and the good focal excursion on such a car can have its say, if you then consider that you can also find it at about 50/60 euros in good condition for me it is a bargain ... Among the cons the noisy and slow autofocus typical of the D series (compared to today's) ..... In short, considering the price you know that you do not take a top lens but on machines like d700 can safely say his without spending unnecessary money for overcostous and heavy goals to take pictures in Sunday picnics .....

Pros: good, light, good focal hike, balanced contrast

Cons: plasticose

Opinion: great for doing almost anything, except if you want to blur the background.. otherwise at f 8 is quite sharp. Even at f 5.6 it's not bad. It does slightly barrel distortion but at 28 mm for a zoom is normal. otherwise go like a train! Even for the very light holidays and you bring it very well. The only drawback is the economic construction with plastic grafting.

Pros: Interesting focal excursion, sharpness even too honest for price, size.

Cons: At 28 mm tends a coat to vignette

Opinion: I use this lens on d810 and sanctually. It gave me natural greens and not bad, the sharpness that has for the ridiculous price at which you find it is also too much so it is a classic small lens to take with the reflex in a walk. In the long exposures he gets away with it and I can not complain even if he vignettes a little at 28 and f 3.5. In essence, in my opinion, it is a good versatile and comfortable lens with which you can do more things than you think.

Pros: Cost, weight, focal excursion, autofocus

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: Bought on Ebay at a ridiculous cost to have a lighter optics when I go out on my bike and backpack, I rarely use it but mounted on the D750 surprised me by the quality of the images it returns. Only at 28 mm is less efficient, however acceptable. I tried to make some shots comparing it to 24-120 N and the difference you notice, I would like to see, but it's just thin. I showed the shots to a friend who delights in taking pictures like me unpretentious as a professional and it didn't seem possible. A lens that given its lightness advice for excursions.
