A convenient locking system also secures the lens when you're on the move.

  • Ultraportable: all-terrain lens ideal for general travel, sports and amateur wildlife photography. Offers an extremely compact and lightweight design for such a powerful lens with such a wide focal length range

    NIKON Excellence

    I have been waiting for this lens for a while. It's done! And I am very satisfied with this purchase. A lens that allows to lighten the bag and to face a great majority of situations.
    Perfect and fast delivery from LCDC, as usual.

    All-purpose zoom

    A bit skeptical about the wide focal length range of this lens but in use, nothing to complain about. Moreover, the optical stabilizer works wonders in video mode. Of course, the mini aperture is not the best, but living in the Caribbean where the light is "strong", it does not pose major concerns. A compact and light rock which allows to adapt the focal length in any circumstance.
    I'm happy with it!
