Customer Reviews
Here and there you’ll see people maligning this lens and saying it’s soft, a dog, the worst Nikon ever put out… but I haven’t experienced any of the problems the lens is supposedly riddled with. Yes, it may not be the sharpest thing, but then, it’s a zoom with a fairly wide reach and it compensates being slow with the VR feature (which won’t stop the subject but steady the photographer’s hand instead). At any rate, this lens is practical, useful and it does deliver the goods. Mine works wondefully with my F100 and my F5, and soon enough with my D700. Filters may be a problem, as it takes a 72mm size. Never bother to use a CPL on this lens: first, it’s too slow (and it would only make sense to use it under a very strong sun or with a fast ISO outdoors), and it would be a pain to turn the filter to polarize the light. It may be better to have a neutral density filter instead, if it’s at all needed. I haven’t experienced any color distortion or any distortion whatsoever, except for the (expectable) one at the wide end of the zoom. Otherwise, this is my favorite glass… and shares the limelight with my other Nikon AF-S zoom, the 24-85 f3.5-4.5.

Worth a try? Yes! In case you’re not satisfied, this version of the 24-120 lens does keep its resale value for a while. At worst, you may lose a bit on the resale, but then, you already got to play with a VR lens.
