It has plenty of distortion, chromatic aberration, vignetting and other issues, but worst of all – its optical performance and focus accuracy at long focal lengths is disappointing. Personally, I would rather opt for the 18-105mm kit lens or the 18-200mm, both of which are cheaper and better optically. Add the focus breathing “feature” and it becomes more like a 18-135mm lens, so you are not getting the full 300mm anyway (except if shooting objects at infinity)."</span></span></span></em><span style="color: #000000"><span style="font-family: 'Candara'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #000000"><span style="font-family: 'Candara'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #000000"><span style="font-family: 'Candara'">Read more: <a href="http://photographylife.com/reviews/nikon-18-300mm-vr#ixzz2Dop6yn7Z" target="_blank">Nikon 18-300mm VR Review</a></span></span></p></blockquote><p></p>
