Thom's Mini Review: If you shoot DX and this lens isn't in you kit, get it. This is one of the best bargains Nikon has given us in the lens world, and the extra aperture gives you some flexibility in low light that is rare in the DX world. Optically good, small and light, inexpensive, what more do you want?
