This compact and highly versatile 5.3x zoom includes Nikon's VR image stabilzation technology and delivers incredible optical performance.
Compact, 5.3x wide-angle-to-medium telephoto zoom, ideal for a broad range of shooting situations from interiors and landscapes to beautiful portraits
Optical design optimized for use with Nikon DX-format digital SLRs for superior performance.
Vibration Reduction (VRII) minimizes the effects of camera shake, allowing handheld shooting at up to 4 shutter speeds slower than would otherwise be possible, assuring dramatically sharper images.
Two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements offer superior sharpness and color correction by effectively minimizing chromatic aberration.
Exclusive Nikon Silent Wave Motor (SWM) enables accurate, high-speed and quiet autofocus operation.
Three aspherical lens elements virtually eliminate coma and other types of lens aberration even when used at the widest aperture.
Nikon Super Integrated Coating (SIC) offers superior color performance and substantially reduced ghosting and flare.
Close focusing distance to 1.3 feet throughout the entire zoom range.
