Nikon 18-300 review up
7 months ago

Nikon 18-300 review is up but I`m suprised at the conclusion, they say that the nikon is the sharpest superzoom at telephoto despite slamming it for that..

Looking at the samples, it`s way softer than the Tamron 18-270 VC NON-PZD (not tried the PZD) on the same camera (D3200) at full zoom wideopen, Maybe the sample DPR had was a dud, I can`t imagine Nikon making such an expensive Superzoom perform that badly (it`s worse than the crappy old plastic 70-300G) . I`d hate to see the Sample of the Tamron they used if its softer than that ! . the non-PZD is good even at the edges at 270mm F6.3 even at Infinity where these things are at their weakest .

I`d suggest DPR try a second sample of the lens or ask Nikon Wassup
