I was a bit skeptical for buying a refurbished lens, I have bought a few new Nikon lenses in the past. Have not had a problem with either. And for this price, if I break it I can buy a new one without being too upset!

Consistent Output; Easily Interchangeable; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Lightweight

Short Zoom

I bought this to replace my old lens that came with my D50. I had bought a new D5000 body and my old lens was acting up. This one has the added VR feature. Very happy with it.

Fast / accurate auto-focus; Lightweight; Vibration Reduction

What a delightful little zoom lens for my D7200! Light weight, plus having VR makes it a great walk-around lens for outdoor (or indoor with very good ambient light) shooting. The VR is giving me blur-free images even with shutter speeds as slow as 1/20 if I don't mind an ISO up to 3200 (my preferred...

This is an excellent little walkaround lens that gives good performance and sharpness plus VR. It all plastic but seems reasonably put together but I don't really like plastic mounts but for the price of this one I can forgive it. Recommended...

Sharp; fast focus,lightweight

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Lightweight; Not enough wide angle; Quick Focus

Blurry Focus; Made in thailand; Weak Casing

I bought this camera after drooling after it for months. It has lived up to almost all of my expectations. The pictures I take look more professional than with any other camera I've used.

Picture quality is very good; Functionality and settings are very good; It's slightly smaller than the average Digital SLR so it's easier to tote around town

I wish more of the Nikon lenses worked with this camera body; I wish there was an image stabilization feature, especially when using the longer lenses

Despite Amazon telling me that it fitted my camera, the D3100 and the fact that it attached to the camera the lens will not work with all but the latest Nikon cameras. The leaflet you get with the camera tells you that.

this lens is super sharp and arguably sharper than the very expensive 17-55mm 2.8.but not of the same build quality.the little click on HB-45 lens hood is great but not included.the down side is the plastic lens mount.

very sharp and vr

plastic lens mount

This is an upgrade I made to my new camera package. I don't really know much about photography yet but my friend strongerly recommended that I get the VR lens and I'm assuming that is one of the reasons why but my photos turn out beautifully.

Really helps novice photographer

None; yet

I purchased this lens back in October and have been meaning to write to say that 1 Stop Camera actually called and left a message on our machine to let us know that they sent the lens to us. I was very surprised to get such personalized service and wanted to commend them for that.
