Used to be the 18-105 was THE kit lens, for Nikon DX Bodies. Then, they came out with this new 18-140. Neither lens has gotten particularly good reviews, has it? In fact, the older 18-105 has actually fared better than this one.
Nikon users, what would be YOUR recommendation for an all-around AP-Z (you can choose a third party one, too!)
Seeing good reviews from several sources for the Nikon 24-85 AFS lens, I picked one up about seven years ago, knowing I was going to digital soon. It was on ebay for $150.00. When I received my D90 the 24-85 went right on it and was a great walk around. Now on my D7100 and it's still great. Not too long ago, I picked up a refurb of the VR version and it's even better in low light for obvious reasons. It's light weight and quick focusing, covering most of what I shoot. It's a sleeper that has stood the test of time for me.
