In a nutshell, I'm thrilled. The ideal trip suitable complement to the 18-55 VR II because the 52 mm protective cover can remain the same secured to the camera. Is on the D5300 a sharp, high-resolution images up to the full zoom, very few distortion, hardly noticeable darkening in the corners, as well as no CA, super compact, even if the button-pressing and turning the zoom ring to get used to at the beginning ; quickly comes into focus, to 80 (95) cm close, that's OK (+) The lens is very light. This can be (almost) take with you everywhere. It has a good grip and feels high to the camera. (-) Drawbacks: (. It the chip for automatic distortion correction missing; *) there are light-more lenses; it's probably not splashproof. But for the money (?!), And the imaging performance, the VR, as there is *****! * Edit: I have to correct myself, it is not on the chip in the lens, you have the current directory correction file in the camera store, then go!
