Now Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G can be found with almost all Nikon DX cameras elementary and intermediate. It originally came as one of three options for the camera. Nikon D90, own, it was announced along with this camera.

Assembly
A copy of this review was made in Thailand. Important: Since 2014, the production of these lenses has moved to China.
The Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G is pleasant and weighty to the touch, weighing just over 400 grams. The lens uses common 67mm color filters.
Please note that the Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G on the mount side does not have a special rubber gasket, which is an indication that the lens has dust and moisture protection. It is better not to expose the Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G to severe moisture and dust tests.
The focus ring is plastic, and the zoom lens is rubberized. Unfortunately, the Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G has plastic bayonet, for which many photographers dislike it. The plastic mount is the first sign that the user is facing a lens from the simplest Nikon Nikkor line of lenses. For example, among the universal Nikon DX lenses, only the simplest kit lenses of the class have a plastic mount. 18-55/3.5-5.6 and another not very successful Nikon 18-135 / 3.5-5.6G.
The retractable lens barrel consists of two sections, to the touch they are quite durable, without any backlash.
With frequent use, the lens may begin to suffer from spontaneous lengthening of the frame (trunk of the lens) under its own weight.
There is a bayonet mount mark and a mark on the case for quick installation of the hood. The lens uses an HB-32 plastic lens hood, which is fixed in special grooves located near the front lens of the lens. The lens hood comes with the lens. The hood can be installed in the opposite direction for transportation. In this position, access to the zoom ring is partially lost. Exactly the same lens hood Nikon 18-70, Nikon 18-135 и Nikon 18-140.
When changing the focal length, the rear lens moves in the middle of the lens body like a pump - it draws in and pushes out air. This behavior of the rear lens is called 'vacuum cleaner effect', which can increase the amount of dust that accumulates in the camera. You can clearly see the effect of a vacuum cleaner with a Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G lens here.
The Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G comes with a CL-1018 soft case, and the lens itself comes in a small cardboard box with a characteristic Nikon coloring.
Diaphragm
Diaphragm lens consists of 7 rounded petalswhich form a fairly even hole. Diaphragm closes to F / 22 by 18 mm and to F / 38 by 105 mm of focal length.
Unfortunately, Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G cannot boast good aperture.
There are marks with a focal length on the zoom ring, the following is a list with the minimum numbers F available for these marks:
- 18 mm - F / 3.5
- 24 mm - F / 4
- 35 mm - F / 4.5
- 50 mm - F / 5
- 70 mm - F / 5.3
- 105 mm - F / 5.6
Stabilizer
The Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G has a second generation 'Nikon VR' image stabilizer that can compensate for 3.5 stops by shutter speed. In values excerpts this means that you can shoot at shutter speeds 10-12 times longer than what the lens without a stabilizer requires.
The manual for the Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G lens says 3 stops (measured by Nikon), and the official website 3.5 feet (measured by CIPA). In any case, the stabilizer works well.
To enable / disable the stabilizer on the lens there 'VR ON / OFF' button. The stabilizer itself works well. I was able to take pictures without grease and hard work at 105 mm focal length and 1/30 second. Unlike more advanced lenses, such as Nikon DX AF-S Nikkor 16-85mm 1: 3.5-5.6G ED VR SWM IF Aspherical, this lens does not have the ability to switch stabilizer modes.
While the image stabilizer is turned on and off, the viewfinder may twitch slightly, this is the norm and should not be afraid. The stabilizer is turned on by pressing the focus activation button.
The lens can track the movement of the camera during panorama shooting. In this case, the stabilizer will suppress vibration only in the direction perpendicular to the movement of the camera.
Focusing
Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G focuses quietly thanks to 'SWM'-motor (Silent Wbird Motor - quiet wave / ultrasonic motor) and refers to the lens'AF S'type (with built-in motor focusing), and therefore it will automatically focus on any Nikon digital SLR camera.
Auto Focus Speed - average. On cameras Nikon D90, D200 the lens focuses tenaciously and does not release objects from the field of sharpness.
During focusing, the front and rear lenses remain stationary, as the lens uses internal focusthat is indicated on the case by the letters'IF'-'Iinternal Focus' - 'Inner Focus'. The front lens does not rotate while zooming. It is possible to use any filters without problems.
When changing the focal length, the front lens does not rotate.
The minimum focusing distance is only 45 cm, while you can shoot Macro with 1: 5 magnification... Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G does not have a window with a distance scale, depth of field scale and other useful marks.
In manual focus mode, the ring rotates about 120 degrees, when it reaches the extreme positions it does not rest, but continues to slide, without affecting the focus. Manual focus is easy.
On the lens housing you can find focus switch 'A - M'. In position 'A', automatic focusing works, and in position M - manual focusing.
The 'A-M' switch in this lens is non-standard. Normally, in all lenses equipped with such switches, manual focus cannot be performed in 'A' mode. But here is what the manual says for Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G:
Manual focus can be performed even if the AM lens mode is set to A. Set the camera to focus on AF-S and press the shutter-release button halfway to autofocus. Then, while holding the shutter-release button halfway, manually rotate the lens focus ring to fine-tune the focus. Note. Do not try to rotate the focus ring while the autofocus function is operating. When the autofocus function completes, release and press the shutter-release button halfway again.
Thus, in AF-S mode, after successful focusing, you can still rotate the focus ring to adjust the focus or refocus it. Unfortunately, such a property is only a miserable semblance of a full-fledged regime M / AM with the possibility of constant manual focus control.
You can find more information about lenses with a similar feature in the section Focus Features 'A', for some Nikkor lenses with the 'A-M' switch.
Image quality
The lens is sharp enough in the center of the frame, even on open apertures. Sharpness sags a little at 105 mm. Unfortunately, the corners and edges of the image on open apertures remain very weak. The lens also suffers from chromatic aberration and vignetting. Modern cameras can automatically correct vignetting and chromatic aberration.
Of course, at 18 mm you can see barrel-shaped distortion, which becomes pads like with an increase in focal length. The level of dystoria is at an adequate level for comfortable perception of the image.
Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G well tolerates side and back light and shows good contrast, which is typical of modern universal lenses. In general, I did not find anything particularly bad or good in the quality of the image obtained with the Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G.

My experience
Nikon 18-105mm 1: 3.5-5.6G ED Nikkor VR AF-S SWM DX IF Aspherical was my first universal lens for my first two cameras Nikon D40 и Nikon D90. I used it a little over a year, after which I changed it to Tamron 17-50mm F / 2.8 XR Di II LD Aspherical (IF). Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G is nothing more than an ordinary whale lens with a slightly expanded focal length, which allows you to use part of the tele-range.
For a month, I was simultaneously holding Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G and Nikon DX AF-S Nikkor 18-55mm 1: 3.5-5.6GII ED SWM Aspherical, which allowed me to compare their capabilities. As a result, it turned out that using a range of focal lengths of 18-105 is several times more convenient than using 18-55. The ability to use 105 mm of focal length on the Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G is one of the lens's greatest strengths. Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G also has a more pleasant / solid appearance and it is much more convenient to handle it than with 18-55.
This lens is not a bit suitable as a regular lens for some more or less serious shootings (wedding, responsible reporting, etc.). I took off 4 wedding on the Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G and now I regret it. In the same time Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G fits very well for simple tasks. He repeatedly helped me out on hikes, on vacation, for homely leisurely filming. Like it or not, but finding a more balanced lens than the Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G is very difficult.
From cheap universal lenses for Nikon DX cameras, I advise you to look at the options Nikon AF-S Nikkor 18-70mm 1: 3.5-4.5G ED DX SWM IF Aspherical и Nikon DX AF-S Nikkor 18-135m 1: 3.5-5.6G ED SWM IF Aspherical. True, these lenses can only be found in use on the secondary market. A good replacement for Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G are Nikon DX VR AF-S Nikkor 18-140mm 1: 3.5-5.6G ED SWM IF Aspherical и Nikon DX AF-S Nikkor 18-200mm 1: 3.5-5.6GII ED SWM VR IF Aspherical.
The most similar lens from a third-party manufacturer is Sigma Zoom 18-125mm 1: 3.8-5.6 DC OS HSM (Optical Stabilizer).

Thank you the store www.fotika.com.ua behind provided by Nikon 18-105mm 1: 3.5-5.6G ED Nikkor VR AF-S SWM DX IF Aspherical lens, which I took for a while to create photos with its appearance.
Results
Nikon 18-105mm 1: 3.5-5.6G ED Nikkor VR AF-S SWM DX IF Aspherical lens performed quite well as universal lens for amateur photographers. On vacation, he is simply indispensable. Unfortunately, one should not expect high optical performance from such a lens. In general, the lens is good for its price class.
I recommend it as the very first lens for Nikon DX cameras. It is best to buy a Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G kit (together with the camera), in which case the cost of the camera and lens will be lower than their total cost separately. Using Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G is much more convenient than class lenses. 18-55/3.5-5.6 due to the wider range of focal lengths.

Or maybe better Nikon 50mm f / 1.8D AF Nikkor + Nikon 35mm f / 1.8G AF-S DX Nikkor? Maybe so at least in some focal range you can work comfortably and get a picture of a much higher level not burdened with soap, carrots and the poisonous kaleidoscope shown in the demonstration pictures?
What do you think are its significant advantages affecting a qualitatively correct “soft” image as opposed to the above lenses? And what do you think of his work with overexposures and skin tones? Is it so suitable for a club and is it even possible to undertake to shoot a commercial photo session for them?
I think that the above problems always exist, and the photographer must decide directly with the right settings, and the lens does not play the first role here.
Arkady Shapoval, certainly a photographer, first of all, but somehow it turns out that they can be removed even better than the curved-button push-buttons with more expensive glasses and carcasses, but with equal straightness / curvature it’s impossible to squeeze something out of him at least more comparable with the cheapest fixes. And this begs the rhetorical question, or the conclusion: whether universal mediocrity is needed across the entire range, when you can squeeze much more (just incomparably, I can even cite my own examples), even if I lose the focal length from 50mm to 105mm, which, nevertheless, Looks distinctly, even on better lenses, only in 5-20% (depending on the directness of the hands) in average situations?
ZY With 18-105mm familiar not by hearsay. And for me, he has the right to life only for non-motorized budget systems and then if it came in the kit. In the case of a budget body and a choice of lens / s, the issue is more than controversial. Depends on the photographer and what he claims to be. In the picture, this is the same 18-55 with small pluses (focal, but still sharper) and minuses (unpredictable focusing on different ranges - front focus and back focus errors, soap around the edges). As well as 18-55 for the start, it will not hurt anyone to comprehend the basics of photography, and with its corresponding quality, it may even better help to comprehend the subtleties of choosing the right shooting conditions, setting the light and subsequent post-processing - after, with better quality lenses it will be much easier than if take better quality glass immediately. But for an upgrade, for me, it is categorically unsuitable, on which, in general, the author of the branch does not insist, but rather naoorot.
This is not 18-55, take a look at the optical circuit https://radojuva.com.ua/2012/08/nikon-autofocus-lenses-scheme/. 18-105 is primarily interesting for its 105mm, from which you can squeeze a lot. If you worked not by hearsay from 18-105, then it will be easier for you to choose.
I mean for picture quality and lens quality, who cares about these schemes? Understand still not determine the quality of the picture. What can you squeeze out of him? It is terrible in colors, skin tones and overexposures with a poisonous waxy tint. And also lathers. And your photos only confirm this. It is foolish to even argue. Strange, initially it seemed to me that you were not even arguing ... ... sad.
An optical scheme with such a huge number of lenses, for such a cost, cannot, by design, provide good quality. It's like buying a Chinese phone - non-name or fake under the brand name up to $ 100 with all the latest bells and whistles for launching intercontinental missiles.
As a counter example, take a look at the Nikon 85 1.4G circuitry, there are also a lot of lenses, the quality is on top. My opinion is the following: if 18-105 does not suit you, you can use other lenses, the question is how much they will satisfy the required qualities. From 18-105, like any other lens, you can really squeeze out excellent image quality, the question is which scenes to shoot on it. I dare say that even for the 35mm you have proposed, there will be a catastrophic lack of a wide angle for a number of tasks.
oh, how I miss a wide angle, due to circumstances I have only 35k left ... .. often think about 18-105
Alexander, good evening.
Tell me, is there really a plastic mount on all 18-105? Is it possible to replace it with a metal one, and is it necessary to do this?
Something I don’t see any Alexander here, I need to write to Sasha using these contacts https://radojuva.com.ua/sovetskaya-optika-pric/
Arkady, forgive me, my head at night (we have +5 hours) after a difficult evening and a working day, he does not think well.
Of course I turned to you, Arkady.
Yes, this model has a plastic mount. To be honest, I have never seen a plastic mount break on this device, and replacing it with a metal one is an expensive pleasure that will not improve the quality of the pictures taken with this lens in any way.
Good afternoon!… There was a problem with the camera…. Pressing the shutter button - writes: “press again” (something like this)… What could have happened?… And how to fix it?
Which camera?
Quality will not improve, you are right.
But, after a colleague's plastic mount on the lens cracked (when he took a camera from 18-105 out of his bag), we asked these questions. I think this is definitely a minus, but again, on technical forums, this is explained as follows: Since the 18-105 lens belongs to the class of amateur lenses, the bayonet is specially made of plastic, so that if you drop or carelessly handle the camera, it will not damage the camera itself. In fact, they say that - dropped the camera, - the mount cracked - the camera is intact.
And also, they write, especially in the instructions, that a SLR camera is a fragile device that requires careful handling. The more you devote to the quality of lens-to-camera attachment, the less time you will have to take pictures.
Good review. Thanks. I use 18-105 with Nikon D90 and did not regret it nirazu
Nikon D5100 camera c 18-105
Here you are right, we do not have much time.
Please tell me, with this lens 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G ED VR AF-S DX Nikkor, where can I see the resolution (number of pairs of lines)?
For example, on the official website http://imaging.nikon.com/lineup/lens/zoom/normalzoom/af-s_dx_18-105mmf_35-56g_ed_vr/index.htm
A wonderful review, and all the claims that were addressed to the author are nonsense, because people do not know what is most important, the optical scheme, or the result ...
Tsikaviy look around the objector, I will be helped. If you want to take a copy of Nikon D90 plus a few pennies in me Doing so not thinking, so tsei turned around the possibility of dati take bokeh (I don’t say, I don’t think it’s even better) (: Oh yes, “... focusing is not super fast ...” typo (:
thanks. Corrected.
Arkady, please tell me which is better to buy.
I have a d3100 with 18-55 whales.
And I am tormented by the choice, buy REPLACEMENT WHITE 18-105, or Sigma 18-50 mm f2.8-4.5 DC OS HSM for Nikon
In principle, the zoom is enough for me on the whale, but I would like something more sharply. How do you like sigma? What do you recommend to replace a whale in the price of $ 300-350?
Thank you for your attention.
I did not use sigma. From the native I advise 18-200 VR II, for sharpness you need to take fixed lenses.
“Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G ED VR AF-S DX Nikkor on a cropped sensor will have an EGF equal to 27-157,5mm”
"The Nikon 18-105mm f / 3.5-5.6G lens is only suitable for APS-C DSLR cameras, which means that it is not designed for full frame cameras, but for so-called 'cropped' cameras."
If the lens for cropped cameras, why do I need to multiply the declared FR?
Does the manufacturer indicate fr on the DX lens as for FX?
Focal length is a physical measure of the lens, and it does not depend on the camera (matrix), but on the optical device of the lens. Think about why the real physical focal length is also indicated on the soap boxes, for example f = 4.7-23.5, can a simple soap box really give an extremely wide viewing angle of 4.7 mm? Therefore, for DX lenses, you also need to calculate the EGF.
Thank you, I did not draw an analogy between "soap dishes" and DSLRs.
I also want to clarify about the zoom, I met information that for crop x1,5, optical zoom is calculated from 35 mm, and for ff from 50 mm, i.e. FR 105 mm gives a 3,3x optical zoom. How reliable is this information?
I have not encountered this, but it seems to be true, since 50 mm ff is taken as the focal length of the eye. In general, since the eye has a focal length of 50 mm, but covers a field of view of 24 mm per ff, talking about zoom is not entirely correct.
Tell me, should the focusing ring on this lens rotate completely, or should it rotate "back and forth"?
As far as I remember, it has a limitless move in both directions. But in the actin mode it spins back and forth.
Thank you!
Arkady good afternoon!
There is a question on the nikon 18-200 lens.
There is an offer at the flea market at an affordable price for the Nikon AF-S DX 18-200 mm f / 3.5-5.6G ED VR I Zoom model - as I understand it, this is some kind of first version, since there are now models with the II index (Nikkor 18-200 mm f / 3.5-5.6G AF-S DX VR II). The question is - what is the difference between the first and second versions, and is it worth taking the first version, or smothering it and taking the second?, Or is it generally a typo and there is only one version.
(Please take into account my quasi-small experience). I’m looking for such a lens because of laziness, in the pursuit of versatility.
Thank you.
There are two lenses
Nikon 18-200mm f / 3.5-5.6G IF-ED AF-S DX VR Zoom-Nikkor
Nikon 18-200mm f / 3.5-5.6G ED VR II AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor
These two versions have the same optical design and are very similar. VR works better on the second version. Better, of course, to take the second version. Typo or not - I can't tell.
Good day, Christmas day, May 18-55 for 18-105 buy-offs for the day, for me only
I have a D3100 carcass and a 50 / 1,8 AF-S lens. Focal catastrophically lacking, especially a wide angle. Which lens do you recommend taking (within 200-250 dollars). I hate soap in the picture, so I took the fix right away. But so far it is not possible to achieve sharpness throughout the frame. Is it possible, in principle, to remove with my fix a uniformly sharp picture, without blur? And which lens do you recommend buying for focal? You wrote that at a wide angle 18-105 soap, it bothers me, you thought to take it.
Yes, it can, it gives sharpness over the entire field of the frame. I recommend 16-85
Thanks for the answer! But, unfortunately, now 16-85 is quite an expensive option for me, even in a used state (500-600 dollars). I'll keep it on mind.
Still, it might be better to purchase 35 / 1,8 in addition to your 50? It is cheaper and the picture quality is much better than zooms + aperture ratio. How wider is it than fifty dollars? Should I have both lenses?
You decide. I advise friends to take such lenses and decide for themselves.
Catherine, I use the NIKON D 3100 for two fixes (50 mm 1.8 G and 35 mm 1.8 G), and it’s very convenient. For home filming (both for filming and outdoors), 35 is suitable, and for nature 50 mm, which is 75 mm on the crop.
Here is an album with 50 mm: http://fotki.yandex.ru/users/j-shev2/album/235664/
and here is an album with 35 mm: http://fotki.yandex.ru/users/j-shev2/album/264057/
Good afternoon, tell me, should the focusing ring rotate freely in both directions or should it be fixed in certain positions? (M mode)
It has an infinite loop, but focuses only in a certain range.
Hello Arkady. Please tell me, is it worth taking 18-105 as a wide angle for wedding shooting, or will 18-55 give less distortion? Or maybe you advise something else?
As a width - any of them will do, I like 18-55 on a wide one.
Hello, I have a Nikon D3100 with 18-105 I like the lens but I would like better results ... as a staff it suits me but I would like to take a portrait lens as you think it is better to take a Nikon 50mm f / 1.8G AF-S or Nikkor AF for my photo -S 35mm f / 1.8G DX. Or is it not the lens but me? Thanks in advance for your answer)
As a portrait painter fifty dollars https://radojuva.com.ua/2012/02/obzor-nikon-50-mm-f-1-8-g-af-s/ will be better than 35-weave.
