Pros: Focuses quicker than the default 18-55 Has a nice aperture for a jack of all trades (3.5) Feels sturdy due to its metal and glass build For $299 you get both the 18-55 and the 55-200 (well minus those 60), but for the price better aperture where they both interlace.

I gave away my old worked off Nikon 18-200, and needed to buy another basic lens. I read good info about the Nikon 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED AF-S DX VR and bought it to use with my Nikon D7100.

Plz buy from RPcamera of flipkart.they r selling it for 21k only. If u buy for 24k obv u can buy from outside retail as they wld be giving u warranty as specified by nikon site but i suggest to buy from Flipkart as its cheap here.

The Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR ($499.95) is the company's replacement for its older AF-S DX Nikkor 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR zoom. It's priced a bit higher, but covers a longer zoom range.

Sharp through most of range; 7.8x zoom range; Optically stabilized; Fairly compact

Loads of distortion; Edge performance could be better; Hood not included

Gary Wolstenholme reviews the new super-zoom lens from Nikon, the Nikkor AF-S DX 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR Lens.

Good sharpness throughout the zoom range; Lightweight; Effective VR system; Convenient zoom range

Distortion; especially at 18mm; Price

Bought the 18-140mm Nikkor lens as a replacement for my Nikkor 18-105mm, which I dropped and broke; Paired with a Nikon D90 body; The 18-140mm is an outstanding lens at this price and a surprising step up in quality from the 18-105.

No bad points I can find; It's a little bigger and heavier than the Nikon 18-105mm, but that's more of an observation than a criticism

This lens is used on a D7200. I like the way this lens focuses, It finds focus fast and does not hunt. I like the sharpness of the images. I like the light weight. I use this lens primarily for wildlife photography. I works ok for large birds but does not have enough reach for small birds.

I bought this lens as a kit lens with a D7500, and think it's a great walking around lens. Yes, it's bigger than the 18-55. When I shot the 18-55, I was always wishing it had a little more reach. The 18-140 focuses quickly and has pretty good reach. I've been happy with the images.

Ive been trying to like this lens for a couple years. It ended up on my spare camera that I keep in the back of my car and rarely ever use. Its just too soft at all focal lengths and aperatures compared with any other lenses in by bag.

A consumer lens with a zoom ratio of almost 8:1 is never going to be as good in the optical department as primes or short-range professional zooms, and the Nikon AF-S Nikkor 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR certainly doesn't challenge that paradigm.
