Nikkor AF-S DX 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR - Review / Test Report

The Nikkor AF-S DX 18-55 VR is a typical kit lens in the sense that it delivers a lot of value for rather little money. It's probably not the lens of anyone's dreams, especially regarding its rather poor build quality.

1 Stop Camera gave great service...

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.

excellent quality

this is a kit lens , I bought canon xsi first but was disappointed with its kit lens though the camera was good I returned the xsi and got the Nikon 3100 . The 18-55 kit lens is excellent with very good picture quality autofocus is fast .The only drawback is the plastic mount but it is a kit lens .
Pros:
  • price ,quality
Cons:
  • NA

Start With This One

This is my go-to lens for everyday photography. Perfect for point and shoot. It's easy to zoom in and out quickly. I keep this one on the camera at all times, and only switch to a premium lens when doing an intentional photo shoot.

Love the VR feature added to this lens

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.
Pros:
  • Fast / accurate auto-focus
  • Lightweight
  • Vibration Reduction

As good as new!

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!
Pros:
  • Consistent Output
  • Easily Interchangeable
  • Fast / accurate auto-focus
  • Lightweight
Cons:
  • Short Zoom

At this sort of price this is a remarkable piece of equipment. Despite its shortcomings, the simple truth is it will outperform many of the photographers that use it, and even with many years of experience behind me I include myself here.
Pros:
  • Capable of very good results
Cons:
  • Could be better made
