This lens is decent and versatile for everyday or recreational use. It’s light and covers a good range. However, the picture is a bit soft and less than fulfilling, but good enough for family recreational shots.

Simply excellent. It allows a great deal of light in the picture, even taking pics indoors or using the zoom. Love it.

It was exactly what I was expecting and it works great. I had an 18-55mm lens that got broke and this is the replacement. It has more range so I don’t have to keep changing lenses for things at a greater distances. I still want to get a longer lens at a later date.

Overall, I would have to say this lens does what it is supposed to do. It is an excellent general purpose zoom, with the added benefit of VR. Just to make things clear, I am not the type of person who compares the minute details of lenses; but I do notice the differences between them. After using this lens and selling it to purchase the nikon 17-55mm f/2.8, I have noticed a few differences between them. Obviously, build quality is no competition, with the 17-55 easily winning (feels like one solid machined block!) There is one thing that I definitely miss from the 18-105mm though–VR! Yes, over the course of time that I had the 17-55mm, I learned to love VR, and trust me–you don’t know what you’ve got til it’s gone, especially in the case of VR. VR aside, however, the 17-55 has the benefit of a constant aperture, along with better contrast and color in my opinion. then again, it costs three times what the 18-105 does (I bought mine off of craigslist for $900–don’t pay $1220 new, that is a ripoff. if you’re going to pay that much get the new 24-70mm.) For what it is supposed to do, however, the 18-105mm does just fine.
