The AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-300mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR is a high-power zoom
lens with a focal length of 18-300 mm and a zoom ratio of 16.7x,
allowing a wide variety of shots from wide-angle to super telephoto with
just one lens. The AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-300mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR joins the
AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR II and the AF-S NIKKOR 28-300mm
f/3.5-5.6G ED VR to enhance the high-power zoom lens lineup. In
