Review: The best lens I have ever owned. - Excellent quality lens. It is the sharpest I have ever owned. The item was delivered quickly and in perfect condition. I will certainly consider the supplier for future purchases.
Review: A great lens for your days out. - First things first I'm just a someone who likes taking photos and having large prints done of the ones I like best. I know there not technically brilliant but I like them. I've been using this lens on a D7100 and D3100 but mostly the D7100. I've given this lens 5 stars not because it's the best lens optically or the lightest or anything like that, but in the month I've been using it it's just been the right tool for the job and I love the pictures it's been giving me. As other people have said it's a great all day lens. I have a Nikon 55-200 and was never really happy with the shots it took, they where always just sort of OK and I never used it at 200mm as the picture quality was horrible. So I swallowed hard and ordered the 18-140 and as I said I'm very happy with the results. For me it takes an ace picture. It's quite a hefty beast and fitted on the D7100 it's not a light weight package but I've walked up lots of mountains in the month I've had it and not had a problem. The fitting was surprisingly tight on the camera. Everything works as advertised and the VR seems to work lots better than the 55-200. The zoom action is quite stiff but there's no creep in the mechanism. My only minor gripe is with Nikon, for what this lens costs you'd think there would be a lens bag included. Other than that well recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best lens I have ever owned.
*by K***N on 16 April 2026*

Excellent quality lens. It is the sharpest I have ever owned. The item was delivered quickly and in perfect condition. I will certainly consider the supplier for future purchases.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great lens for your days out.
*by M***D on 18 March 2014*

First things first I'm just a someone who likes taking photos and having large prints done of the ones I like best. I know there not technically brilliant but I like them. I've been using this lens on a D7100 and D3100 but mostly the D7100.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great lens but so is the 18-105mm lens
*by B***E on 2 August 2015*

I bought this Nikon 18-140mm lens to replace my previous 18-105mm lens which I'd lost. I read several reviews from various websites, some of whom preferred the 18-105 lens, some of whom preferred this lens. The bottom line is unless you're the sort of person who takes the same image using various lenses, lays them side by side and studies them in minute detail looking for imperfections....unless you're that sort of person, you're never going to know the difference. The only thing that put me off buying this lens initially was the price. The 18-105mm is available for around £190. The 18-140mm costs over £400. However, I noticed one seller on here (RYH Deals UK) was selling the 18-140mm for £215. I was a little reluctant at first, not knowing if it would turn out to be a grey import or if it was genuinely a Nikon lens. In the end I went for it, and it arrived within 3 days, in genuine Nikon packaging, with a genuine Nikon warranty....Bargain! In my opinion, having used the 18-140mm lens for about a month now, it's just as good as the 18-105mm, with a bit of extra zoom which comes in handy. If you're looking for a genuine Nikon, general purpose, zoom lens, you won't go wrong with this one....IF the price is right.
