Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is this lens compatible with full-frame (FX) Nikon cameras?
This lens is designed for Nikon DX-format (APS-C) DSLRs. It can be mounted on FX bodies, but vignetting may occur and the camera may automatically switch to crop mode.
2. Does the lens include image stabilization?
Yes — the lens features Nikon's Vibration Reduction (VR) to reduce camera shake and help produce sharper handheld shots.
3. Is the autofocus suitable for video recording?
Absolutely. The AF-P stepping motor delivers smooth, quiet autofocus that works well for handheld video and run-and-gun shooting.
4. What filters can I use with this lens?
The lens accepts 55mm screw-in filters — useful for polarizers, ND filters and protective glass.
5. Will this replace a prime lens for portrait work?
It’s a versatile everyday zoom that performs well for casual portraits, but for very shallow depth-of-field and extreme subject separation, a fast prime may be preferable.
6. What does Vlebazaar's warranty support include?
Vlebazaar supports warranty registration guidance, inspection assistance and coordination with Nikon service centers where applicable. Refer to included warranty documents for manufacturer terms.
7. Is this lens good for low-light shooting?
The variable maximum aperture (f/3.5–5.6) is typical for compact zooms; combined with VR and higher ISO capability of modern cameras, it performs well in many low-light situations but won’t match faster prime lenses in extreme low light.
