    This is a good lens to come bundled with, but not great with low light, still better than a point a shoot. Overall its a good lens and works.

    Lens can really zoom for long distance shots. Lens is small enough to pack for vacation and not take up too much space.

    Needed a close up lens for my camera. This fits the bill and is easy to use. Price was a little high, but you get what you pay for.

    Very expensive. Almost impossible to justify until I took some random pictures and could literally see dust particles on objects I didn't notice w my eyes.! Nice crisp pictures..color needs to be adjusted often as some seem drab and washed out, but in happy w my lens.

    buy the filter lens! Great Lens, Easy to use in auto and manual mode, but you will need a UV filter lens especially in manual mode.

    I went from cell phone photography to Nikon d7000 photography. I know I've got a long way to go to do the total capability of this camera justice, but I am up for the challenge and excited about the journey. The zoom lens have slready helped me shoot great pictures.
