## Description

Product Description               The AF-S DX NIKKOR f/3.5–5.6G VR II from Nikon has just become even more attractive to D-SLR enthusiasts. More compact and portable than its predecessor, this multi-purpose retractable lens is the easy way to capture the moment. The 3x zoom combined with advanced Nikon technology offers optical quality and versatility, delivering high-contrast photos and movies. Suited to everything from flattering portraits to action-packed events, this is the ideal lens to accompany you on your travels. Featuring Nikon’s second-generation Vibration Reduction system (VR II), this lightweight lens can provide images free of blur due to camera shake at all focal lengths. Designed to enable stable hand-held shooting, Nikon’s VR technology allows you to use shutter speeds up to 4 stops slower than would otherwise be possible, resulting in sharp images, even in low light. Being an optical system, the viewfinder image is also stabilised, enabling more accurate autofocus acquisition and framing. So whether you are zooming in to capture faraway subjects or shooting wide-angle group portraits in low light, the AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR II will deliver crisp, clear shots. The lens comprises eleven elements in eight groups, in a design including one aspherical lens element. For a soft rendering effect, the iris diaphragm has seven rounded blades, producing high-quality natural backgrounds. The aspherical lens element helps eliminate problems of distortion and other types of lens aberrations to ensure high-resolution, contrast and deliver required image quality.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this compatible with a D3100?**
A: I have a D5100 and the lens works perfectly with my camera.  You should check this but my understanding is that our cameras are extremely similar and take the same lenses.The lens is excellent and perfect if you want crystal clear images without the hassle of changing lenses continuously.  It is very well made, focuses quickly and is quite compact when set to 18mm.  The lens is heavier than the cheaper 'Kit' lenses but this does not bother me.  The advantages greatly outweigh this minor issue in my mind.I hope this helps.

**Q: The one I have recieved is making a noise when it focuses is this normal?**
A: Use mine on a D500, which focuses very quickly.  There is a small amount of noise associated with the lens engaging focus, but no more than what you get with all the other lenses I use.  Suggest you compare with other lenses.

**Q: Why us there no Amazon protect available for the 18-105 lens from amazon . Could amazon sales team look into it ?**
A: Pass, don't know.

**Q: Hi, i'm looking for a not too expensive lens for my Nikon D3000 to use on indoor horse jumping. Has anybody used it for this.**
A: Use bright lenses for indoor movement. 70-200 / 2.8 for example.
