The one lens solution
No, its not the equal of a half a dozen prime lenses. It's not the equal of Nikon's holy trinity of fixed aperture zoom lenses covering the same range. But its remarkably robust compared to the competition, its plenty sharp, and its distortion is acceptable in all but the most critical applications. Five stars for a lens that's good enough for all but the 99th percentile. The only lens I need in my bag.

Amazed!
Just bought this lens today and has blown me away with the VR and sharpness. I was going to get the 2.8mm 24-70 instead but in spite of this one being a stop lower the aditional feature of VR clearly trumps it.in working in low light conditions without a tripod

An Excellent Investment for portraits & much more!
I bought this lens 3 months ago and it has not left my camera ever since. I use this lens for everything ranging from in-house portraits, parties, low-light, sunset photography, landscape and much more. This is a MUST have lens to have in your arsenal if you are a serious hobbyist or a semi-pro. The picture quality is super sharp. Overall I rate this lens 5/5. If you have a decent DSLR and want to invest in only one lens then this is the one. You dont need any other lenses apart from this one. It covers good range (24-120mm) for close-ups as well as zoom. For regular people, it is little expensive lens but trust me, you'll love the results. I would recommend to save some money and buy this lens other than any other lenses out there. I have the Nikon D5000 and it matches perfectly with it. I absolutely LOVE this lens!!

Fantastic lens, light, sharp and look gorgeous on nikon d700, this is a fantastic lens, just buy it and won't regret. Thank you nikon,

Thumbs up !!
I'm a newcomer to Nikon Family. Just bought the D7000 paired with this lens less than a month.
I took the system to a resort island in West Java, Indonesia and capture lots of pictures... The result is unarguably amazing. Even my friend, who is a pro-photographer with C***N system, were admiring the IQ.
All of the pictures i took were made handheld..

Ignore the fact that its work without any issue because its too expensive and on DX camera at 24mm angle of view is very narrow. If you want the best lens for DX get 17-55 2.8, the best for D50.Answer:
Ignore the fact that its not a DX lens, that is irrelevant, it will work without any issue on a D50.Answer:
Yes, But this lens is for FX camera. If you use D50, 18-105VR is made for DX camera like D50.
Just wondering if it is worth it for outdoors like football games and soccer games in the rain.

Answer:
The lens has a gasket at the back of the lens mount to help seal the lens to the camera body. To my knowledge this 24-120 f/4 is NOT environmentally sealed like the "Gold Ring" lenses like the 24-70 or the 14-24. Nikon's website makes no mention of sealing.Answer:
No its not.
I wan to make sure I can use it with my D80 camera before I purchase lense.

Answer:
Internal focus.
I currently own the AF-S DX Nikkor18-105mm, F3.5-5.5 ED VR. (kit lens) I shoot with the D90 & D300S. I'm trying to decide how much of an upgrade I'm getting if I purchased the F4 FX format 24-120. From what I'm reading the FX won't make as much of a difference, unless I upgraded to a full format camera body. Would this be correct? I've done the comparisons via your site, but am still undecided. The price difference between the two lens if quite a bit, so want to understand why the 24-120 is so much better. I've read reviews on both lens & most people like them both. I've shot some good images with the DX, but was at a class and the instructor said my "kit" lens was a piece of junk & get a new lens....The remark has been bothering me ever since. Any comments would be appreciated.

Answer:
Hello Pat,1) I respectfully disagree with your instructor. The 18-105mm kit lens is actually very good, and I honestly can't see much difference between it's results and those of more expensive zoom lenses when properly shot.
2) If you want still more quality, forget the zooms: you'll have to move to fixed (prime) lenses. Start with the more economical AF-S G 35mm f/1.8, AF-D 50mm f/1.8 and AF-D 85mm f/1.8 (in this order) before spending 4 digits on glass.
3) The 24-120mm is actually a bit long on DX. If you like it's angle on FX, try it's DX cousin, the 16-85mm (my favorite Nikkor zoom on DX, but still not as good as any of the fixed lenses mentioned above).
Kind regards, Paulo.
