Pre-Owned Nikon AF-S 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5G IF-ED DX Lens

Compatibility 

• This lens requires that the Auto-Focus motor be in the camera body. This lens is meant for use on select Nikon DX sensor cameras only. Please verify compatibility with your camera before ordering.

Why This Lens belongs in Your Bag:

• Versatile Focal Range: With an 18-70mm reach (equivalent to 27-105mm on a full-frame camera), you can capture expansive landscapes at the wide end and stunning, compressed portraits at the telephoto end without ever swapping lenses.

• Superior Optics: Unlike basic zoom lenses, this model features three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements and one aspherical element. This means sharper images, better contrast, and significantly reduced color fringing.

• Fast & Silent Focus: Equipped with Nikon’s Silent Wave Motor (SWM), the autofocus is lightning-fast and nearly silent—perfect for candid moments and quiet environments.

• Built to Last: Most modern kit lenses use a plastic mount, but the 18-70mm features a durable metal mount and a rubber gasket to help seal out dust and moisture, giving you a lens that feels substantial and professional in your hand.

• Internal Focusing (IF): The lens does not change length when focusing, and the front element doesn't rotate. This makes it a dream for those who use circular polarizers or graduated ND filters.
