Key Features

Compact, 5.3x wide-angle-to-medium telephoto zoom, ideal for a broad range of shooting situations from interiors and landscapes to beautiful portraits

Nikon VR II (Vibration Reduction) Image Stabilization
Vibration Reduction, engineered specifically for each VR NIKKOR lens, enables handheld shooting at up to 4 shutter speeds slower than would otherwise be possible, assuring dramatically sharper still images and video capture.

Exclusive Nikon Silent Wave Motor (SWM) enables accurate, high-speed and quiet autofocus operation.

Nikon Super Integrated Coating (SIC) offers superior color performance and substantially reduced ghosting and flare.

Rounded 7-blade diaphragm for more natural appearance of out-of-focus image elements.

Optical design optimized for use with Nikon DX-format digital SLRs for superior performance.

Two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements offer superior sharpness and color correction by effectively minimizing chromatic aberration.

Three aspherical lens elements virtually eliminate coma and other types of lens aberration even when used at the widest aperture.

Close focusing distance to 1.3 feet throughout the entire zoom range.

Picture angle equivalent to focal length of 24-127.5mm (in 35mm format)
