Best for its price
I love this lens! It came with my D3100 Camera, and it is great for general shooting. I've heard complaints about the Macro and low-light conditions, but it isn't for those purposes first of all, but I think they are pretty stinking good for the price. It is a great lens for beginners, like me.

Extremely good lens
I have taken many pictures and know the value of the lens in picture quality. In my opinion this has provided the quality picture I'm looking for.

Great lens!!
My 18-55 came as part of my D40 kit. I must've gotten a fantastic copy of the lens b/c I've never had issued with this lens when used within its range. Of course I have trouble w/autofocus when in low light. It's not a meant for extremely low light. It IS however an amazingly fast lens that takes crisp, clear pictures. I've grabbed awesome

So far, So good..
I have only had it for a couple days, but so far i have enjoyed it. I can use both manual and auto focus to get good pictures. Auto focus can be a little slow, but otherwise a nice product.

Full of Quality and Dependability
I got the Nikon 18-55mm AF-S DX VR with my D60 kit, my first DSLR, and used it until I felt comfortable enough with the camera to upgrade to the 18-105. The 18-55 was perfect for a learning curve. It takes outstanding shots, especially landscape and architecture. Indoors, with longer exposures, it also delivered crisp clear images without a tripod because of the VR feature.
The qualities of all functions are extremely good, especially considering the price of the glass. Sometimes, especially the first few months, it took a bit to focus but that may also have been my own ignorance of various functions that both the camera and lens offer. I have read some reviews where people experienced distortion at the bottom and top of the range but I never noticed this in my captures. Though it is made of plastic it seems durable enough and it connected and disconnected with ease from the D60 body.
While I had this lens for the first 7 months of my DSLR usage, I probably clicked about a thousand shots a month on average. The D60 and 18-55 were with me on my trip to England and the comments I have received on castles I photographed have been great. In fact, many friends and relatives requested framed 8x10s and 11x14s. That certainly makes one feel good. And I thank the D60 and 18-55 for that to a major degree.
I would recommend this to anyone starting their DSLR life. For the money I do not think it can be beat.

Where can I get parts (such as the locking ring)?

Has staff answer
I have a lens that apparently 2 of the 3 locking tabs have broken off from. I can tell that this is just a ring on the back of the lens, and I would like to replace it, without having to pay more than the lens is worth. Where do I get a diagram, and where can I order parts?

I have a D300s camera and several Nikkor lenses. In several forum posts, they refer to "updating the firmware". What does that mean & how?

Answer:
No, the Coolpix L110 has a fixed lens. You must purchase a Nikon 1 series camera or one of Nikon's DSLR cameras to be able to change lenses.
