With a focal length range of 24 to 200 mm (36 to 300 mm in DX format), it covers virtually any shooting situation—from sweeping landscapes to distant details.Weighing just 570 g and measuring 76.5 x 114 mm (retracted), it's very small, handy, and lightweight, making it the perfect travel companion. Despite its compact design, it delivers very good image quality, making it ideal for photographers seeking flexibility without bulk. Optical Performance and Versatility The optical construction consists of 19 elements in 15 groups, including two ED glass elements, one aspherical ED element, and two aspherical lenses. Nikon's ARNEO and Fluorine coatings reduce flare, ghosting, and dirt adhesion, while ensuring sharp, high-contrast images with vivid colors—from wide-angle to telephoto. The variable aperture of f/4 to f/6.3 may not be the fastest, but this is compensated for by the built-in Image Stabilizer (VR) with up to 4.5 stops of compensation, enabling blur-free shots even in low light or at maximum zoom. The close-up distance varies from 50 cm (at 24 mm) to 70 cm (at 200 mm) with a maximum magnification of 0.28x – sufficient for impressive close-ups on the go. Practical for photos and videos: The quiet stepping motor (STM) provides fast, precise autofocus that operates virtually silently – ideal for video recording and unobtrusive photography. Focus breathing and focus shift when zooming are minimized, ensuring smooth transitions when filming. The lens is dust and splash-resistant, ensuring reliable performance even in adverse weather conditions. The 67 mm filter diameter and the 7-blade aperture (f/4 to f/22) round out the practical features. Perfect for travel: With its 8.3x zoom range, this lens covers everything travel photographers need: wide-angle for architecture and landscapes, normal focal length for portraits, and telephoto for details such as animals or distant landmarks. A zoom lock switch secures it when retracted, allowing it to be stored compactly in any camera bag.
