The Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR
18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR Lens is
a multi-purpose zoom lens capable of wide-angle and telephoto imaging—and
everything in between. This all-in-one NIKKOR zoom lens is compatible with
DX format cameras, and it features an extra-low dispersion (ED) glass element
in addition to an aspherical element that help to improve edge sharpness
and clarity while correcting chromatic and geometric
distortions. Its combination of high-quality optics and a broad zoom
range make the 18-140mm an ideal go-to lens for travel and
other tasks that demand functionality without sacrificing portability.
Nikon's Silent
Wave Motor (SWM) autofocus mechanism provides near-silent auto focusing
that is both fast and accurate. Combined with Vibration Reduction (VR)
image stabilization, the SWM AF system equips the AF-S DX NIKKOR
18-140mm for handheld video recording as well as fast-action photography.
Additionally, manual autofocus override allows instant switching to
manual focus without taking your eye off the subject of interest. A 1.48 ft
minimum focus distance and f/3.5 maximum aperture permit
macro-style shooting that yields shallow depth of field with pleasant
out-of-focus detail.
