Product Description
Sigma 18-50mm F3.5-5.6 DC Lens for Nikon SLR Digital Camera 521-306 - This zoom lens was exclusively designed to suit the characteristics of digital SLR cameras. The image circle was designed to match the size of the image sensors of digital SLR cameras, and this produced a compact lens with a maximum diameter of 60mm (2.3in.), overall length of 67.5mm (2.6in.) and weight of only 245gr (8.6 ounces). It has a variable angle of view of 69.3degree~27.9degree. The use of aspherical lenses provides correction for various aberrations throughout the entire zoom range and produce high level of optical performance. 18-50mm F3.5-5.6 DC lens has a minimum focusing distance of 25cm (9.8in.) at all focal lengths and is capable of macro photography with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.5. Digital cameras having image sensors larger than APS-C size, and 35mm cameras, should not be used with these lenses. If such cameras are used, severe vignetting in the images may result. The angle of view varies depending on the camera the lens is mounted on File Format - Photos - JPEG; Videos - ISO standard MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 (.MP4); Audio - 48kHZ Media - SD Memory Card, SDHC Memory Card (up to 32GB) 16x Advanced Zoom for Video - More area included than standard zooming 10x Optical Zoom for Photo HDMI output Large 3.0 LCD monitor Digital Image Stabilizer Face Chaser technology can detect up to 12 faces for photos and videos 3D DNR noise-reducing function for cleaner, more professional-looking videos Compatible with Xacti Library, for easy saving and access to photos and videos with just about any external hard drive Audio - Microphone - Built-in stereo; Speaker - Built-in monaural Interface - AV output (Video - HDMI/D/ S-Video/ Composite video (NTSC/PAL) Audio - Stereo sound), USB 2.0SimilarProduct

Solid Glass - more solid mount by .. W. D. Rosenmund (Fairfax VA)
Nikon 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR AF-S DX Nikkor Lens + Nikon 55-200mm f/4.0-5.6G VR AF-S DX Nikkor Lens for D40, D40x, D60, D80, D200 & D300 Digital SLR Cameras (Lenses Refurbished by Nikon U.S.A.)
I bought this lens to replace a Nikkor DX 18-55. Actually, to replace 2 of them.
I shoot with Fuji Pro S3 and Pro S3 UV/IR. Twice, while on the camera, the Nikkors, with their plastic lens mount, have broken off the camera. (Once in the case & on camera and once outside of the case - and around my neck - while photographing the recent inauguration. I decided to chance the Sigma and 'lo and behold' it came with a metal mount. It is much more durable for the active user.
Focusing is quick and images are sharp. it does the job of a pro lens well.
If you baby your cameras (obviously I don't - I work with them) the Nikkor DX 18-55 is fine. When it breaks, consider the Sigma as the replacement lens.
Sigma 18-50 mm for Nikon by .. Marvin E. Jamieson (Houston, TX)
Bought this lens to use as a wide angle landscape lens. It is great so far. The sharpness is excellent, it focuses quickly and zooms easily. I would reccommend this lens to anyone looking for a lens in this focal range, especially for the price.
