Key Features

Ultra-compact 18-55mm 3x zoom provides superb versatility in a wide variety of shooting situations.

Silent Wave Motor (SWM) with compact rod-type design enables ultra-high speed auto focusing with exceptional accuracy and super-quiet operation.

Hybrid aspherical element ensures high resolution and contrast.

7-blade rounded diaphragm for more natural out-of-focus highlights.

Designed exclusively for Nikon DX format SLRs, this lens approximates the picture angle performance of a 27-82.5mm lens on the 35mm format.

Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass element achieves minimized chromatic aberration and superior optical performance.

Focus mode switch enables quick switching between A (Autofocus) and M (Manual focus).

Nikon’s Super Integrated Coating minimizes ghosting and flare to provide even higher contrast and more vivid images, even in challenging light conditions.
