Title: If you don't mind Dirt INSIDE!
Review: This is a great lens for outdoor photography and works ok indoors with a flash. Also a good all-around starter lens. I purchased mine in a kit with my camera.However when Nikon designed the lens they ignored the fact that every time the lens is zoomed in and out, it sucks in dirt and dust from the outside like a vacuum cleaner! After owning it for only a couple months, I started noticing dust inside all over the front lens group. Once contaminated on the inside, there is no economic way to remove the dust. Having it serviced by a Nikon authorized tech is cost prohibitive. Might as well buy a new lens. Too bad, otherwise it's a very versatile lens. If it weren't such a dust sucker, I would rate it 4 stars.
