- Today we have a hands on review of the AF-P DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR Lens; basically the kit lens for the Nikon D7500. Nikkon claims this 55mm Lens is the compact, lightweight go-to lens for nearly any shooting situation. Also boasts a versatile 18-55mm zoom range ideal for wide-angle shots, portraits, fast action, HD video and much more. There's the ultra-fast, near silent autofocus powered by a pulse motor (utilizing stepping motors). Two Aspherical glass elements provide outstanding optical performance. VR image stabilization ensures sharp photos, steady videos and enhanced low-light capabilities. But is it all true? Find out today in this Drive By Review!

Drive By Reviews is this a somewhat wide angle lens?
The beauty of this lens is that it produces good image quality across a handy focal length and is a super lightweight, compact all round lens - excellent for walk around photos, at home, friends, relatives, street photography, landscapes - without lugging a heavy lens on an already heavy camera body. Super quiet auto focus works excellently for stills but not so good for movie close ups.
Good quality? I have this lens on a D5300 and the results are the worst I have ever seen. I'm dumping my Nikon kit tout suite.
Maybe I should switch from Sony to Nikon.
I will sponsor your first Nikon ;D
I Love my Nikon!
TechnologyMafia good decision
Never do that. Nikon has a horrible AF
This lens can be found for about $80-$90 new and is a remarkably good lens for that kind of price. I do not do much video with what I believe to be a stills camera, that is my D5600. Focus with this lens is really quick and image quality I would rate as very good. Giving a 35mm focal length equivalent of 27-82.5 mm this is one really handy lens to have and you can take lots of different scenes with it. I have a UV(0) filter that I keep on mine all the time to protect the lens which cost about half as much as the lens itself and a circular polariser for when I want that. Remember to use good cameraman techniques when using these “lesser” lenses and you’ll be surprised by the results. The Alabamie Kid.
Thanks for the video
Try it with a new D7200 in video mode. The auto-focus works almost perfectly with the system used on the 7200.
GREAT review, BTW. Covered what I wanted to see.
Who takes videos on auto focus?
Good report with interesting test results. Thanks.
Thank you for the review! Also, that was painful to see those high ISO levels snap shots. :(
I've had the 18-55mm for quite a couple and didn't notice until now, it's a wide angle lens
This was really helpful!
Yo yo top man still loving yo videos!!!
Haha, thanks pawel
Thanks you soooo much I have D3400 and 18/55 been killing myself to learn photography but when I see all nice shots and stuffs not done with what I have I get disappointed ☹️ but now I have a clear understanding that I need to upgrade lens and camara to get those pictures
How do you focus it, im having a hard time with mine.
Could the focus issue you experienced during video mode with the 7500 be the focus ability of the 7500 itself and not the lens? It seems very quiet however. I've got the AF-S 18-55 that came with my D5500 and that thing is just too noisy for video work or trying to be quiet in photo mode. How would you compare it to an AF-S lens?
Exactly, the D7500 is definitely the AF issue. It has to flip up the mirror for LiveView/Video and is terrible in that mode. In photography mode the AF is fantastic. After this video I did a number of AF-S reviews. The AF on the AF-P lenses I tested is amazingly quiet in comparison. Bascially the AF-S lens models were unusable with any audio pickup on the camera, whereas the AF-P lenses AF noise was not picked up by any mic.
Why didn't you include that information in the video, especially given that you said you were going to?
So my conclusion after watching your video is that I should be using Manual Focus for videos but when taking photos Auto Focus is fine?
...reason I'm here is that I was looking for signs of "criticisms" of these lenses by Nikon...because...I have come to the "sad suspicion" that there may be no "perfect" units of this particular lens to be found...at all?
I have the latest, AF-P version and it seemed good, although the VR wasn't as "striking" as I remember from my first 18-55 years ago, but, it seems to work (...I tested carefully)
But what is a serious defect is that the lens won't focus perfectly and - importantly - uniformly...
THIS would be the result if lens elements simply aren't aligned to absolute perfection...
This will also result in another artifact - loss of geometric linearity...
So you will have BOTH partial loss of focus AND non-linear geometry as a result of mis-alignment....
This is such a pity - the assembly of the product deprives it from the promise of its - very sophisticated - lens elements...Botched assembly renders ALL the exquisite parts "useless" as a total...
Can it be fixed..? - ...no...the only solution is replacement. But will Nikon do that...? - I fear not - they will take lens, "test" it and respond with the statement that "the lens performs within our specifications" and they will not "repair" and they will most likely not replace either....
So all the lenses you find sold as "refurbished"....you should assume they are all slightly defect.
Would the average person detect what I found as I processed images....in most cases probably not...
I will contact seller, but it's more than 90 days after purchase, so seller won't help either...
So the promise of this lens is great...the reality is "not great"....
@@pcmedico4688 ...another thing I have wondered about - why did Nikon bother to make it (the AF-P version) collapsible in the first place - why introduce such a design complication...it's not a bulky item...
hey man love your vids. PLAY MORE WSOP VIDSSSSS!!
This lens needs to be tested in live view on the D3400, its natural home, for more reasons than just "budget" considerations. And no, not on the D5600, either. Ref.- Thom Hogan review(s) & dpreview comparisons (choose all 3 bodies + D3300 and compare).
Have you tried this lens with Auto Distortion Control set to On?
Make more WSOP!!!! Lov ur vids still
I tried to play the next tourney in WSOP but this one player keeps kicking my ass.
Between this lens or a 10-20 mm which one is better?
who’s better afs 50 mm or afs 18-55 mm? need recommendetion asap. thanksss
Prime is better
You didnt say whether or not the auto focus could be heard after recording videos?
Will this lense fit Nikon D40? I heard the VR may not.
Anyway to manually focus?? Bought this and didn’t know It didn’t have a MF/AF switch. But it seems to have a focus ring? What is this used for?
1. Does the old AF-S DX lenses work with D7500, I have few lenses that I use with my D3200.
2. Actually confused whether to wait and save some more and get a full frame camera.
Yes
You have to invest in knowledge and answer these questions yourself. Buying a FF camera won't make you a better photographer.
I'm having a problem where the lenses only works before it goes into the 18-55mm... Area? So between locking it and 18 mm it works. Otherwise everything is blurry and the camera won't let me take a picture
AF-P 18-55 is a very fast focus lens. Even in live view.
Do you believe that this lenses would be good for creating RUclips videos ?
wheres the wsop series at
Will it work on Nikon B600?
Hopefully, you get a chance to see this. Is there a way to set a D7500 to be on continuous focus in video mode? I can't seem to get this. I have to keep pressing the button halfway to refocus if I moved the camera unlike in picture mode where it automatically refocuses on the new subject. I appreciate any help.
Yes, it's been awhile since I owned this camera but a bit before this video I posted some initial camera reviews and went over autofocus thoroughly. I believe it was a switch and I only found the large area AF tolerable. Manual ended up being my go to on the d7500
at 18 mm picture is distorted
I love Nikon and i dream to have an DSLR.. Too bad that this will forever be only a dream.. Just cant afford one DSLR :(
hope you get one soon..
Whats better, af-p 18-50mm or the af-s 18-50mm?
AF-P for silence in video and lesser hunting... I guess...
Please help me, i have this lens with nikon d3300, but i can't do the autofocus by automaticaly while recording.
Try holding the focus button on the shutter button when you need to focus
@@dinocrest1946 it works but doesnt look good. Its like blured too long until u get focus
Soooo did the focus sound come up on the onboard mic?
+Dimey45 K no not on the AF-P with the "virtual silent" motors
Canon ef-s 18-55mm is STM is much more better. NO noise absolutely
bro upload dot videos
Will it work on d 7200?
Did you find out if this lens was compatible
Does this lens work with the D5000 please?
Yes
Definitely no
@@user-wi7vu5hv8g Thanks
Works with Nikon D3200????
Let me wait with you here. I wanna know too
No
dx35mm lens in the sun is very bad, infamous

GERMARDOU MEDIA GROUP theres a switch to turn it on or off on the left side of the lens
