The nikon AF-S 18-300mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR Lens from nikon is an all-purpose
zoom lens Cap,able of shooting wide angle to super telephoto focal lengths. This
lens has a zoom range of 18-300mm, which affords the 35mm focal length
equivalent of 27-450mm in the DX format, making it useful in a wide range of
shooting situations. The lens utilises a Silent Wave Motor enabling quick,
quiet auto focusing for photo and video as well as an internal focusing system

technology optically stabilises the image to reduce the effects of camera shake
and movement providing the equivalent of up to 3.5 additional shutter speed
stops. Helping with image quality are three aspherical and three extra-low
dispersion glass lens elements that will minimise aberrations and lend to
overall image clarity and colour accuracy. nikon's Super Integrated Lens
