Lens Buying Guide

  • Compatible with a variety of Nikon DSLR cameras: Works with any Nikon DX-format DSLR camera with an F-bayonet mount. Also compatible with most Nikon 35mm SLR cameras.
  • Ultra-wide zoom lens for wide angle shots: Allows you to capture a wide field of view for stunning perspectives with virtually no distortion.
  • 18–105mm focal length: This versatile, long-range zoom lens covers a broad range, enabling you to capture the perfect image from various distances.
  • f/3.5 maximum aperture: Provides clear landscape images and beautiful distance shots even in low-light situations, including indoor settings and on overcast days.
  • Vibration Reduction image stabilization: Allows you to shoot at shutter speeds up to 3.5 stops slower without image blur. Ensures dramatically sharp still images and HD video capture, even for handheld shooting.

Q: Would this be a good lens to replace the 18-55 kit lens? I'm looking for a lens with a bigger zoom but not too big as far as a distance of 200mm.

A: The 105mm range of this lens is best suited for portrait type shooting in close proximity or in a studio setting. Not well suited for zoom shots like sports or nature.

Q: Does this lense work with the Nikon D3200?

A: AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-105 is an excellent lens for your D3200. It is a nice lens to use on the camera because of it's versatile focal length. In addition, because it is an AF-S type of lens, it has Nikon's Silent Wave Autofocus Motor built in to the lens. Your D3200 requires lenses of this type in order to take advantage of autofocus.

Q: is this lens compatible whit D500

A: The Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR lens is fully compatible with the Nikon D500 DSLR camera and uses Nikon's VR image stabilization technology to provide 3.5 stops of blur-free, handheld shooting. The Nikon AF-S 18-105mm lens is compact and versatile enough for everyday use to provide beautifully sharp and vivid images. It's is a great addition to any growing camera bag.

Q: Will this work on d5200

A: Yes, the lens is compatible with that model.

Q: What is the manufacture's warranty with this product?

A: This lens is being sold by Best Buy. As one of Nikon's authorized dealers, the lens qualifies for Nikon's One Year Limited Warranty, plus 4 Years Extension of the Limited Warranty. You will have a total of 5 years of warranty coverage.

Q: Compatible with D7100?

A: The D7100 is compatible with the AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR.

Q: Need extra sharp close ups - will this work?

A: The D70 is a great quality camera overall and if you've noticed, it has a 'Macro' mode selection on the Mode dial. You didn't say what lens you were using, but if you have a decent Nikon kit lens like a 18-55, you can get some very good, sharp close0-ups with it.. Try different exposures like 200 ISO; F5-F6; good side lighting from a daylight type source or lamp. Use a tripod if possible which will give you the sharpest pictures. On a tripod, you can set up several feet away and zoom in for the close ups. Use a good photo editor like PhotoScape or Picasa to post process unless you have something better and know how to use it. Good luck!
