But it's an old lens. don't get me wrong, I love it. But it lack's a little sharpness sometimes at 2.8 on my D7100. I've tested it on a D7000 of a friend of mine and the shots where actually sharper.Actually the MUCH cheaper sigma 17-50mm f2.8 has better sharpness than the nikon 17-55mm. But its a plastic lens...If you're happy with your varaible aperture 70-300, I guess the 18-85mm would do just fine.At F8 the 16-85 scharpness won't be that much diferent as the 17-55 I guess <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
