Nikon PC Nikkor 19mm F/4E ED Lens - BRAND NEW review
I would have a huge problem if I had to say why there are two Nikkors 18-300 mm present on the market. Perhaps underestimating the rivals is one of the reasons. In 2012 Nikon, by offering an 18-300 mm model as the first, managed to beat Tamron when it comes to the focal range.
very useful focal range,, good resolution in the frame centre at all focal lengths,, proper correction of coma at longer focal lengths,, moderate vignetting at longer focal lengths,, slight astigmatism at longer focal lengths,, good performance against bright light,, quite silent and accurate...
weak image quality on the edge of the frame at all focal lengths,, high lateral chromatic aberration near the maximum relative aperture of 200-300 mm focal lengths,, significant barrel distortion at the wide angle and distinct pincushion in the 35-100 mm focal range,, modest standard accessory kit.
