optical quality is very bad, soft at all apertures.
Good zoom range, but you can print only 10x15cm.

First of all, this is a kit lens, being delivered with the old analog SLRs, so some of you propably have one lying around and are checking if someone has found anything useful to do with this lens.
If youre thinkin about buying this lens, the answer is: No, dont do it. Save your buck.
This is a lens you put on your camera when your kids are going to play with it, or you want to take pictures at a place where you have to use full body protection suits.
When you think youre lens might not live through the assignment, then this is the lens to use.

One of the worst lens Nikon will ever produce

This lens came with my F80, and I have been using it since until I bought my 18-35mm from Nikon about a year ago. Everything about this lens is plastic, save the electronic contacts and a couple of screws as much as I can see. Everything about it is loose and cheap in feel. Even now one of the mounts have chipped off, but it still works.
Resolution of this lens is horrible, color is dull, focus is noisy though its no snail. There is two rings on this lens, the front which is just a small ring does the focusing, the larger one is the zoom. Is is not internal focus which makes using a polarizer difficult.
All that said its still an ok lens. Something you can safely use to photography (like it did) photograph friends working at the metal workshop with sparks flying. I also made numerous large B&W prints using this lens, which turned out beautifully IMHO, partly because it is sharp (for its class).
If you must, go buy any other lens other then this one. But if you already own one go ahead and use it as a throw-away lens (recycle if possible). Use it where you will not use other expensive lenses.
