Thank you for purchasing the AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR lens. DX Nikkor lenses are specially designed
for use with Nikon digital-SLR (Nikon DX format) cameras, such as the D300 and D90. When mounted on Nikon DX
format cameras, the lens picture angle is equivalent to approximately 1.5
× the focal length in 35mm format. Before
using this lens, please read these instructions and refer to your camera’s User’s Manual.
Major features
• By enabling vibration reduction (VR), slower shutter
speeds (approximately three stops* at a focal length
of 55mm) can be used, thus increasing the range of
usable shutter speeds and zoom positions,
particularly when hand-holding the camera. (*Based
on results achieved under Nikon measurement
conditions. The effects of vibration reduction may
vary according to shooting conditions and use.)
• This lens employs a Silent Wave Motor to drive the
focusing mechanism, making autofocusing smooth,
silent and almost instantaneous. The A-M mode
switch 9 is provided for simple selection of
autofocus (A) or manual focus (M) operation.
• More accurate exposure control is possible because
subject distance information is transferred from the
lens to the camera body.
• The use of one aspherical lens element ensures sharp
pictures virtually free of color fringing. Also, the seven-
bladed diaphragm produces a nearly-circular
aperture, a feature which causes out-of-focus areas of
the picture to become soft and unobtrusive.
