The Nikon AF-P DX 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR zoom lenses covering the 18-55mm range of focal lengths (effective angles of view equivalent to those of a lens with 27-82.5mm focal lengths in FX and 35mm [135] formats). They are the first “AF-P” lenses for Nikon digital SLR cameras, utilizing stepping motors to drive AF for fast and quiet autofocusing. In addition, they have a compact and lightweight design for which retractable barrels were adopted for excellent portability, and the use of two aspherical lens elements has resulted in superior optical performance with which various types of aberration, including distortion and spherical aberration, are effectively suppressed. The AF-P DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR is also equipped with a vibration reduction (VR) mechanism offering camera shake compensation equivalent to a 4.0-stop* (with testing in accordance with CIPA standards) increase in shutter speed.

Michael R. ★★★★★

I swapped out the kit lens on my D5600 and this focuses so much faster and quieter than my old one. The autofocus is silent enough for video, which was a nice surprise.

Grace ★★★★★

This little lens is surprisingly sharp in the middle at 24mm, and the VR actually lets me handhold shots at 1/15th of a second.

Ellie K. ★★★★★

I was skeptical about the VR on a kit lens, but it actually lets me shoot sharp handheld shots at 1/15th of a second, which is a game-changer for dim indoor shots of my kid. The zoom ring turns butter-smooth too, and the whole thing feels light enough that I forget it's on the camera.
