Customer Review:
I purchased this as a midrange all-purpose lens for my D90. I also have a D300s. After using the lens on both bodies and taking all sorts of pictures – portraits, landscapes, closeups, wide-angle, I could not come up with a single image that I would be willing to display. All pictures were slightly out of focus and extremely soft at all focal lengths. Mind you, I’m accustomed to some sharp images from my 10-24, my 35 mm, my 17-55 ED 2.8, my 70-200, and my 105 micro Nikkor. I am returning the lens for its utter lack of sharpness (at $700 I don’t regard this as a “cheap” lens) and am ordering the out-of-stock 24-70 mm lens at 2.5x the price. There is, IMO, no point in buying a lens covering this particular range unless it is a high end lens. I have a couple of overlapping focal lengths but with two bodies, I like to keep different lenses on different bodies and switch bodies rather than lenses. The 16-85 mm was a huge disappointment to me.
