There’S A Lot Of Technology Housed Inside This Lens Even Though It’S Just 2.6 Inches Long And Weighs Less Than 7 Ounces: Eleven High Quality Anti-Reflective Coated Lens Elements (Including A Distortion Fighting Aspherical Element), A Fast Af-S Swm Silent Wave Motor For Focusing, And The Vr (Vibration Reduction) System That Makes You Steadier. The 18-55Mm Af-S Dx Vr Ii Zoom Control Ring Also Has A Convenient Zoom Lock Button That’S Large And Easy To Use (The Zoom Control Ring Lets The Photographer Change The Focal Length Of The Lens And Thus It’S Angle Of View).

The 18-55Mm Af-S Dx Vr Ii Is Called A General Purpose Lens Because It’S Able To Change It’S Focal Length From What’S Usually Considered A Moderately Wide Angle (More Subject Matter In The Image But Less Magnified) All The Way To Just Slightly Telephoto Angle Of View (Less Subject Matter In The Photo But More Magnified). The 18Mm Focal Length Used On A Dx Size Sensor Produces A 76° Angle Of View (Diagonally From Corner To Corner) Which Is Wide Enough To Capture Relatively Broad Landscapes Outdoors And Also Works Well In Small Indoor Spaces. The 55Mm Focal Length Used On A Dx Size Sensor Produces A 28°50′ Angle Of View (Diagonally From Corner To Corner) That Lends Itself To More Tightly Framed Portraits At A Flattering Distance. You Can Also Set The Zoom Anywhere Between The 18Mm And 55Mm Focal Length Settings To Frame Group Pictures Just The Way You Want. An Equivalent Lens For A 35Mm Film Camera Or A Fx Sensor Digital Nikon Would Be A 28-80Mm Focal Length Zoom.
