After Amazon, the D3200 in a set with a 18 - 55mm lens got a Wahnsinnspreis (cybermonday), I realized after a short time that 3x zoom is just not enough. For many shooting situations just not as well suited. Therefore, I have a very short time for a lens with a higher zoom ratio held out and came across this lens at a price attractive to boot. With ED lens, what should be of good color fidelity. Well, bought and built on it. What can I say: This is my all-rounder, which I always plan to have my Nikon. 90-95% of all photos that I'm doing, covers this objective. It is noteworthy that even in churches without a flash in 10-12 m distance people still sharp and without noise on the picture gets, if not move it too much. I do not regret buying this lens and am glad that I have it. Of course I also toyed with the lens 18-200 to still have more zoom, but this lens is equal to much more expensive and in the event that I need a bigger push, I use my "old" message from analogue SLR ( 70-300), which also works on the digital SLR, but I have to focus manually, but the images are sharp and the camera properly exposed.
