    I bought this as a bundle with a d7100, it's an ok lens, better than the 18-55mm. It creates a vacuum when zooming in and out, causing dust on sensor. When zoomed in, it creates a little vignette, easily fixed in Lightroom.

    Lens works well. Just not what i was looking for. If you need a zoom lens, i would recommend this one. Otherwise try a prime lens

    I have a nikon d7100 camera and this lens works great on it and it would also work on any other dx camera from nikon. I have taken great pictures with this lens and I rarely need a lens outside this focal length. It's worth spending the extra money over the 18 - 50mm or the 18-105mm lens..

    This is a solid well built lense. I have only been using the lense for a couple of weeks but am enjoying its focal length and functionality. Looking forward to improving my skill with my new camera and lense.

    I have used this lens to take multiple pictures now and don't have any complaints. I know the zoom isn't anything large like my other zoom lens but that is expected. Changing lens doesn't take too much time it takes more time to pull out the other lens than it does to attach the lens.

    Until recently, I was using a Sigma 18-250 lens for my Nikons. Noticed that pictures were not as clear as I expected when the lens was at either end of the spectrum (18 and 250). Switched over and what a difference.

    I keep my D7100 in the car all the time and the AF-S DX Nikkor 18-140mm is a great lens for everyday use. I have a number of other Nikkor lenses for Landscape and Macro work but this is on the camera unless I am shooting something that requires one of the other lenses.

    I use this lens more than any other. It enables me to shoot a variety of shots ranging from portraits to landscapes. It is a decently wide angled lens and gives a reasonable blur when used wide open.
