*New compact & lightweight design!*

The high-power AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-300mm f/3.5-6.3G ED VR puts practically any
subject or composition well within your reach, while the surprisingly compact design
makes this lens the smart choice when you want to travel with minimum kit. The
incredibly versatile 16.7x zoom range goes from wide-angle to super-telephoto (35mm
equivalent: 27-450mm), easily covering countless situations: from group shots to vast
landscapes and exciting cityscapes; from distant sports action to wildlife photography,
This is a super-zoom that has all the angles covered. Built to offer maximum flexibility and
maximum portability, the lens'' sophisticated optical and mechanical design allows a
compact design that doesn''t sacrifice image quality: by suppressing the open aperture at
the maximum telephoto position to f/6.3, Nikon''s engineers were able to realise a more
compact design than the larger AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-300mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR. As its
smaller and lighter sister, this new NIKKOR 18-300mm VR lens answers the demand for
a powerful, and more affordable, all-in-one lens that can go anywhere and tackle any
kind of subject.

Equipped with Nikon''s Vibration Reduction system, this super-zoom delivers clear, blur-
free images, whether you''re taking a wide-angle group portrait in low light, or zooming in
to capture distant subjects. Designed to enable more stable handheld shooting, Nikon''s
VR technology lets you shoot at slower shutter speeds, without the image-degrading blur
that can be caused by camera shake. The optical VR system also stabilises the
viewfinder image, enabling more accurate autofocus acquisition and framing, especially
at the longer focal lengths of the 300 mm zoom range. In addition, Nikon's compact
Silent Wave Motor (SWM) technology delivers fast, accurate and whisper-quiet AF
operation across the extended zoom range with intuitive manual override.

Weighing in at an economical 550g, the AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-300mm f/3.5-6.3G ED VR
is incredibly light for a lens with this kind of range. The lens features a weather sealed
lens mount and boasts a zoom lock switch, which prevents ''zoom creep'' (the lens
moving under its own weight when tilted during transportation) and maintains compact
dimensions when not in use.
