The AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-300mm f/3.5-6.3G ED VR from Nikon is an ideal single-lens solution for photographing in a wide variety of situations. Designed for DX-format cameras, this 27-450mm equivalent zoom features an advanced optical design comprising both aspherical and extra-low dispersion glasses, which help to reduce aberrations and distortions throughout the zoom range for notable clarity and sharpness. A Super Integrated Coating has also been applied to suppress flare and ghosting when working in backlit or harsh lighting conditions. Benefitting the optics is a four-stop-effective VR image stabilization system, which minimizes the appearance of a camera shake in order to produce sharper handheld imagery. Additionally, a Silent Wave Motor affords quick, quiet autofocus performance along with a full-time manual focus override.

  • All-in-one zoom spans wide-angle to telephoto focal lengths and is designed for Nikon F-mount DX-format cameras, where it provides a 27-450mm equivalent range.
  • Three aspherical elements are used to reduce spherical aberrations and distortion in order to realize sharp imagery with accurate rendering.
  • Three extra-low dispersion elements greatly reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to produce greater clarity and color accuracy.
  • Super Integrated Coating has been applied to individual elements to suppress internal reflections, flare, and ghosting for improved contrast and color accuracy when working in strong lighting conditions.
  • Silent Wave Motor affords quick, quiet, and precise autofocus performance along with full-time manual focus override. An internal focusing design is also used, where only the internal lens groups are moved during focusing, to maintain the overall length of the lens during use and to promote faster-focusing speeds.
  • VR (Vibration Reduction) image stabilization helps to minimize the appearance of camera shake by 4 stops to benefit from shooting handheld in difficult lighting conditions.
  • The rounded seven-blade diaphragm promotes a pleasing out-of-focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques.

Henry ★★★★★

The VR image stabilization makes a huge difference when shooting handheld at the long end of the zoom range, and I love that it covers everything from wide-angle to telephoto without needing to swap lenses. It’s one lens for almost any situation, and the autofocus is quick and quiet too.

Carter ★★★★★

The VR really earns its keep—handheld shots at 300mm came out crisp even in fading light. Switching from wide to telephoto is quick enough that I never missed a moment on a recent hike, though I do wish the f/3.5 held a bit longer through the range.

Michael ★★★★★

I was surprised how sharp this zoom stays across the entire 18-300mm range—the ED elements really do cut down on color fringing. Autofocus via the Silent Wave Motor is fast and quiet enough for shooting birds without scaring them off.
