Review: Just got this lens while traveling in Taiwan and have been shooting with on a D300 almost every day. I shoot in Vivid and the color is not as saturated as my Nikon primes or even my Sigma 10-20mm DC EX HSM. The compact size and super zoom range are great for travel. Fit and finish look good and it should be fairly durable as long as your not bouncing it off of rocks.
