[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 636787, member: 13090"] Just to be 100% clear... You have the 18-55mm AF-[B][COLOR="#FF0000"]P[/COLOR][/B] DX VR? That "P" in the nomenclature is important because it means the lens is the latest version (released in 2016, I believe) with the stepper-motor for auto-focus. In short, this latest version of Nikon's 18-55mm is a surprisingly good lens; it's leaps and bounds better than any of the previous 18-55's and not a lens I would be eager to get rid of unless the focal range was simply not working for me. If you don't feel you're getting good, sharp images out of that lens I would ask if you're shooting JPEG primarily, and if so if you've adjusted the Sharpness setting in the Picture Control menu for your D3300. If do, and you haven't, I'd suggest you start there before looking for new glass in the same focal range. [/QUOTE]
