Hochwertiges Objektiv, schwer und stabil verarbeitet, im Vergleich aber sehr teuer, nur für Profis empfehlenswert.

Der lichtstarke Standardzoomer von Nikon zeigt sich auflösungsfreudig und bleibt dabei frei von Verzeichnungen und Randabschattung. Die gute Abbildungsleistung rechtfertigt den hohen Preis.
