To be totally honest with you, when I took the 18-35 out of the box, its scary light weight instantly made me question its ability. That&#8217;s until I made the first click with it! The spooky sharpness of the 18-35AFS instantly made it a prime lens receiving massive use in my bag. Don&#8217;t let the feel of the polycarbonate lens casing fool you, the inside is pure Nikon, rock solid and Nikon tight. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Along with its very impressive sharpness is the fact you can attach a filter (77mm), two of them stacked and have no vignetting. To me this is a critical improvement in wide angle zooms. It means to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/product\/121298-REG\/Nikon_2482_77mm_Clear_NC_Glass.html\/BI\/8449\/KBID\/9350\/kw\/NINC77\/DFF\/d10-v2-t1-xNINC77\" target=\"_blank\">Nikon NC<\/a> filter that I have on all my lenses, I can add the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/product\/300501-REG\/Nikon_2260_77mm_Circular_Polarizer_II.html\/BI\/8449\/KBID\/9350\/kw\/NICP77\/DFF\/d10-v2-t1-xNICP77\" target=\"_blank\">Nikon Slim Polarizer<\/a>. If the filters are not screwed in tightly, you will see vignetting so we&#8217;re working just on the edge, but we can do it. Its light weight, blazing sharp performance of the 18-35AFS might just put this lens in the legendary column. Only history will tell.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_29833\" style=\"width: 460px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29833\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.moosepeterson.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/18-35ca.jpg?resize=450%2C218&#038;quality=100\" alt=\"graph courtesy Nikon \" width=\"450\" height=\"218\" class=\"size-full wp-image-29833\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.moosepeterson.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/18-35ca.jpg?w=450&amp;quality=100&amp;ssl=1 450w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.moosepeterson.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/18-35ca.jpg?resize=300%2C145&amp;quality=100&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-29833\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">graph courtesy Nikon<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This has to be the sleeper lens of the century!
