One of the main attractions of this lens is an immensely useful and versatile focal range that goes from ultra-wideangle to true telephoto.

Tack sharp through out the range. It compliments my 16-35 for land and city scapes. Shooting D810 with this couple gives me stunning images.

Because D800/D800E has been released, (actually I bought D800E), I needn to change from my 28-70 f2.8 zoom. but beacuse of its high quality of pictures of D800E, VR ssytem is enevitable.

Having used the old 24-120AF and two samples of the 24-120 ED VR with variable aparture, I was more than excited when Nikon announced this new optical instrument. It it superior to its predecessors in every aspect.

The savings made are fantastic however as this was advertised as a new lens I was and am disappointed to find no manual, & most importantly no sign of any warranty documents. Delivery was spot on so thumbs up for that. Thank you.

The focus is extremely fast and image is great.

This new lens has instantly become the one I MUST carry at all times. It offers incredible range, extremely high image quality and a relatively compact and light package.Yes, as many reviewers have said, there's distortion, particularly at wide angles, where it's more noticeable on most lenses, but...

Distortion

I'm a professional photographer, who only used prime lenses. This is the first zoom I found sharp enough to use. I don't have to remove the lens for almost all of my work, eliminating dust on the sensor due to changing lenses.

I have been using a prime lens for close up work for years. I purchased this lens several weeks ago and it has not come off the camera yet. It is well made, focus quickly, and is incredibly sharp. If you are on the fence get the lens. You will be glad you did.

This is a very sharp lens and it is a natural fit for my D700. I have owned the 24-120 F3.5-5.6 VR version of this lens for several years and never understood why it got such negative reviews, it is a very good lens also.
