Comments : Shipped to West Coast, took the full 5 business days to arrive, but was still on time. The only minor complaint I have is that their tracking system isn't hooked up to Amazon's, but I called them for the tracking number and they gave it to me, no problem. / 2010-09-08T05:07+0000

Product Description
Get better pictures from your digital SLR with this Nikon USA: AF-S DX NIKKOR 16-85mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR lens.

Nikon Super Integrated Coating (SIC) offers superior color performance and substantially reduced ghosting and flare. Close focusing distance to 1.3 feet throughout the entire zoom range. Rounded 7-blade diaphragm for more natural appearance of out-of-focus image elements Picture angle equivalent to focal length of 24-127.5mm (in 35mm format) Focal length - 16-85mm, Maximum aperture - f/3.5-5.6, Minimum aperture - f/22-36, Lens construction - 17 elements in 11 groups (with two ED glass elements, three aspherical lenses) Maximum reproduction ratio - 1/4.6.

Amazon.com Product Description The compact and highly versatile Nikon 16-85mm wide-angle-to-medium telephoto zoom lens is ideal for a broad range of shooting situations, from interiors and landscapes to portraits. The lens is equipped with Nikon's Vibration Reduction technology, which minimizes the effects of camera shake. This allows handheld shooting at up to four shutter speeds slower than would otherwise be possible, producing dramatically sharper images at distance. The lens also offers two extra-low-dispersion (ED) glass elements, which minimize chromatic aberration to produce superior sharpness and color correction, and three aspherical lens elements, which virtually eliminate coma effects and other flaws, even when used at the widest aperture. And photojournalists will love the exclusive Nikon Silent Wave Motor (SWM), which facilitates accurate, high-speed, ultra-quiet autofocusing. Other features include a Super Integrated Coating (SIC) that offers superior color performance and reduced ghosting and flare; a closest focusing distance of 1.3 feet throughout the entire zoom range; a rounded seven-blade diaphragm that improves the appearance of out-of-focus image elements; and a one-year warranty.

Customer Reviews
 | | Best all-around DX lens (and almost perfect) | August - 29 - 2010 | | |  by K. Thomas from Arlington, VA
I bought this lens after owning the Nikon 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 G ED-IF AF-S VR DX Zoom-Nikkor Lens for about seven months. This lens is much sharper, and is a great performer wide-open. Some functionality is lost compared to the 18-200, but many of the images I took with that lens were much softer, and the wide-open performance was pretty bad. It could have been a bad sample. In any event, I echo the comments of many others here - this lens is a winner. I think it's either a love it or hate it compared to the 18-200 (Ken Rockwell's comparison of these two lens was quite subjective as he gave the 18-200 glowing reviews compared to the 16-85, even after admitting to the 16-85 having better IQ). Also, the 18-200 has significant lens creep (which is unacceptable); this 16-85 seems to be constructed the same way (albeit slightly smaller) but has no creep. I prefer to couple this lens with my Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED IF AF-S VR Zoom Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras for traveling and get superior image quality over the 18-200.
My only beef with this lens is that it's rather slow. If this was a constant f/4 lens, I think it would have better Nikon product line-up positioning and would make the perfect DX lens (even if this makes the lens just a tad larger and a little more expensive).
This is a purchase you will definitely be happy with if you are after a very good lens with decent coverage that's very sharp across its focal length and aperture range. It will not disappoint!
| | | |  | | Wonderful lens | August - 23 - 2010 | | |  by Kenneth J. Delage from Biddeford, Maine United States
I've had this lens for about a year, and it has never failed to deliver wonderful results. As an everyday lens, it wipes out the 18-200mm since it's lighter, sharper, has no lens creep. Photozone.de reviews this lens in depth and gives it a rare 4 star rating overall. This lens is worth every penny, my advice, just get one, you won't be sorry.
| | | |  | | Great DX lens | August - 17 - 2010 | | |  by Mark C. from Sacramento CA
This is a very sharp lens with a very good VR, quick focus and range. For what it is, a very sharp DX lens for a good price it does a great job. I think with this lens and the 70-300 VR any Nikon DX shooter has almost everything that they need. Maybe a 50mm wide aperature f/1.8 or 1.4 and a 10-24 or 11-16mm even better added later on. This lens has a nice range at 16mm for those wide shoots when you need them. Of course theres purple fringing once in a while and some distortion but all these minor faults can be corrected in PS CS5 so in reality it's a great lens. And with the VR you have the ability to shoot in low light situations especially with Nikons sensitive sensors. Very nice.
| | | |  | | Great Lens | July - 20 - 2010 | | |  by Bart A. Welch This lens replaced a 18 - 105 VR nikkor. The lens is sharp and well made.
| | | |  | | LOVE IT! | July - 10 - 2010 | | |  by Amanda Stone (Paranoid, neurotic, book worm) from Sevierville, TN
I bought this lens a few months ago. It has not been taken off my camera (other than cleaning) since. It takes great pictures and is the perfect range for my photography.
