Can a "Kit" Lens Be Any Good?
INTRODUCTION
The Nikkor 18-70mm AF-S ED f3.5-4.5G IF DX zoom lens is one of those lenses from Nikon that first appeared about the time that the company introduced its first sub-$1,000 U.S. digital SLR, the Nikon D70 to the camera shooting public. Originally marketed to be sold as part of...

The Nikon 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5 G ED-IF AF-S DX lives up to all of its letters.
Introduction
A "kit" in the camera world is a camera body and a lens (usually a zoom). Any pro photographer knows to stay away from kits. Why? Because the vast majority of lenses included with kits are sub-par performers. In the 1990's, a lot of kits from the top camera manufacturers...

Superb performer for a ridiculously low price
Background information
This lens was developed to be bundled together with the Nikon D70, hence the informal name "the D70 kit lens". When I bought my D70, the price difference between purchasing the D70 kit together with the bundled lens and the D70 body only was so slight, that there...

With a zoom range between the wide 18mm and the telephoto 70mm, it provides an ideal "walkaround" lens. Add in the...

What can I say about the Nikon 18-70mm f3.5-4.5G ED-IF-S DX lens, it came packaged with the D200. If you're reading this review, you may be a D200 kit owner like myself. I won't get into the technical description too much on this as the earlier reviewers and the NikonUSA site pretty much describe... Read full review »
Much more than a "kit lens"
This is often called the "kit lens" as it is packaged with the D70. It often sells for 300.00 US or less. It features a ultra fast AFS Nikon focus system and is a joy to use. It is for digital cameras ONLY and has no F/stop ring. This lens operates smoothly and build quality is very good. Optically... Read full review »
