Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars by 9 users at B&H Photo Video

"The more expensive lenses in this range may be better but I can't see it would matter to me. It zooms smooth and as far as I can see there are ZERO problems with sharpness. It is reasonably light in weight and I carry a lot less lenses with using only my three zooms now."

"I bought this lens because I needed a wide with some versatility for a golf trip to Pebble Beach. I've used it for a few pictures with my D700 and have to say the results are really good."

"The only thing I would change on this lens would be to be able to take closer shots from further away"
