Best for
A versatile FX standard zoom covering the most-used focal lengths in one lens - wide for landscapes, standard for general use, short telephoto for portraits. The macro mode extends its range for casual close-up work. Screw-drive AF means it needs a Nikon body with a built-in autofocus motor.
Frequently asked questions
Will it autofocus on entry-level Nikon DSLRs (D3xxx / D5xxx)?
No. This is a screw-drive AF lens and entry-level Nikon DSLRs don't have a built-in autofocus motor, so you'd be stuck with manual focus. For AF on those bodies you'd need an AF-S, AF-P or AF-I lens.
Does it do real macro?
It has a dedicated macro focusing mode that allows close focusing down to about 0.22m at the 50mm end. Not true 1:1 macro - roughly 1:2 reproduction - but useful for casual close-up work.
Does this lens have image stabilisation?
No — this lens does not have image stabilisation.
