APS-C大小的影像可產生APS-C大小影像的鏡頭只屬數碼屬性,它們不可使用於比APS-C 格式更大的影像接收器,也不適用於菲林相機。 超聲波自動對焦一般來說,超聲波對焦鏡頭比傳統對焦鏡頭靜和快。 使用了一個或更多的低散光度鏡頭元素低散光度鏡頭元素能減低彩色的色差。 不穩定影像穩定器能減低手震時產生的模糊影像,特別在長焦距或陰暗情況下。根據倒數的定律,影像穩定化比無影像穩定鏡頭能有1到3個光圈優點。 無內置對焦內置對焦鏡頭不會因設定焦點而改變其大小。 轉動前鏡頭固定前鏡頭在變焦及/或對焦時不會轉動,故可容許攝影師用花瓣狀遮光罩,固定前鏡頭能更容易利用極化濾鏡。 |

The current issue of Popular Photography has a glowing review of this lens and its sibling, the 55mm-200mm zoom lens, for Nikon DX Digital SLR cameras. I'm amazed that Nikon has opted to produced a high quality moderate wide angle zoom lens for digital SLRs at a relatively low price. But don't be fooled that this relatively inexpensive lens isn't capable of producing excellent results, which the fine Popular Photography review certainly attests (At nearly every focal length there is excellent contrast and resolution, with minimal barrel distortion, except at 18mm, since there the barrel distortion is a bit noticeable: this would only have an adverse impact in photographing buildings, but again, the impact is just hardly noticeable.). Nikon has opted to use most of its optical innovations, including the new improved Super Nikon Intergrated Coating (Nikon's latest multicoating) to help greatly minimize flare and thus produce images which have excellent contrast and resolution. For many owners of Nikon's inexpensive line of DX Digital SLRs, such as the new Nikon D70s, this lens and its 55mm-200mm zoom sibling, may be all the optical firepower they'll need for photography, with the chance of expanding sometime later into Nikon's impressive line of superb optics for 35mm film and digital photography.

The Nikon 18-55 is one of those rare pieces of glass that surprises across the board -- I find that it is far superior to the more expensive Nikon 18-70 kit lens now packaged with most new Nikon dSLR's. The 18-55 is not only a third of the price, but it is crisper and clearer at 18, and super sharp from 35 - 55. There is next to no barrel distortion at 18, certainly far less that the 18-70. And there is nothing better than a 6 ounce lens for carrying to parties, events, and dinners, rather than those pound+ lenses. I highly recommend this lens.

I bought this lens for my D70s because of its light weight - almost half the weight of the Nikon 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5G ED IF AF-S DX Nikkor Zoom Lens - and because it has less barrel distortion at 18 mm than the 18-70. True, the build quality is not as good, but I'm careful so that wasn't too much a concern to me. After 15 months of extensive use, my lens is still working fine.
Reportedly, sharpness is best (and is excellent) across the frame at f/8 at 18mm, f/8-11 at 35mm, and f/11 at 55mm.
After 15 months of use, my two favorite features in this lens are still its light weight, and minimal distortion compared to other zoom lenses. For example the Nikon 18-200 VR, which I own also, has very noticeable pincushion distortion at 50mm. In contrast, this little 18-55 doesn't have any perceptible distortion at focal lengths higher than 35 mm.

I bought this lens for just over $100.00 on eBay. I expected it to perform as well as it does. For the price, the lens is better than the 28-80mm by far. The images are clear (in good lighting conditions) and the sharpness is adequate. I have taken several thousand pictures with the lens, and I am satisfied with its performance. The macro photo possibilities are generally acceptable. It is a good beginning lens because you really get what you pay for. The lens does not perform well in low-light conditions, however, due to its aperture limitations. It does not feel too light, although the plastic mount is a liability if you remove lenses often. All in all, it is a worthwhile purchase for anyone excited about jumping into photography. This is a good, general portrait, landscape, and non-zoom macro lens.
EDIT: 2/26/07 The lens began sticking after a few months and ultimately became useless. I dismantled it to determine the cause and noted that the (unofficial name) three rails that the internal lens slides on all have a velvet-type layer of friction material glued to them. One of my rails started losing it's adhesive velvet material and the lens stuck on it as I zoomed in and out, eventually causing my zoom to be inoperable.

I upgraded to a D200 from my D70 and waited and waited and am still waiting for my 18-200 VR. I needed a wide angle lens so I listened to Ken Rockwell (I enourage everyone to visit his site) and bought the 18-55. It is a wonderful lens, produces excellent, sharp images, is light weight, and focuses quickly. It's an inexpensive build, but for the price I can use for a few years (or until my 18-200 arrives which ever is first) and feel that I have gotten more than my money's worth. Don't let the light weight fool you, though, this is a great lens.
