Great universal lens. Fabulous pictures. I purchased this lens to replace the OEM lens that came with my D5000 DSLR, as the OEM was accidently broken. Even though it is not equipped with anti vibration technology (which has not ever been an issue), it takes fabulous pictures and would recommend it as a great universal lens.. April 30, 2011
Great lens! I purchased this lens for my new D60. The kit lens 18-55, didn't give me the view I wanted. With a film camera, I found that the 100mm lens was ideal for what I wanted in a picture. Unfortunately, to get this in a DX camera requires a 66 (70) mm lens. The closest I could come was the Nikkor 18-70mm. It is fantastic: quick focus, clear, precise pictures. Add to that light weight and a fairly compact size, and you have a truly wonderful lens that is a pleasure to use and can capture what you see! April 14, 2011
a great lens This 18-70mm lens was a kit lens came with my D70. Although, it is a 6MP DSLR, it has been producing many great pictures with this combo. Being a kit lens, it performed way above my expected quality. I found it is stable and I am still using it most the time. The shared picture was taken last year trip to France. April 14, 2011
It has always been is a reliable lens for me Bought new in 2005 with a D70. Use it on D70,D90 & D300S. Very happy with this lens ... whilst I appreciate the other users comments I havent any bad things to say about this lens. Certainly there are better lenses out there and I have some; but for general use I like it. April 11, 2011
Excellent Walk Around Lens! I use this on my D80 and I never change it, I use it as my walk-around lens. It gives me minimum to no distortion at 18mm and it's super sharp at 70mm. The colors are really bright and it's practically a light weight. If you're thinking about a unexpensive kit lens for general use, look no more! August 12, 2010

Answer: 
I am not sure about the connectivity but at a guess optically, I would think not properly because it is a DX lens, designed for the smaller sensor of a DX camera. I believe that you would get a black band around the image, in the same way that you would if you attacked the lens to a D700, due to the 35mm film size.

I've read several places that this lens only has a focal length range of 20mm to 70mm on these cameras. As this is a DX lens, why would the focal range be different for these cameras than say for a D50 or D90?

Answer: 
It is and always will be a 18-70 no matter what body you put it on, focal length cannot miraculously alter on different bodies.
