This lens is fantastic for the budget shooter and even the serious amateur.
I did a lot of research before buying this lens and the positive reviews were generally spot on. The lens is well built, sharp, and quick.
There are some cons to weigh before purchasing the lens, however. The first and most annoying of these being the focal range. As much as I like having 75mm on the long end, 28mm is in no way wide enough for everyday use. I shoot mainly travel images, and the 28mm (42mm on DX sensor) is not acceptable for landscapes. Thus, I carried an 18-55mm that was given to me. Not an awful tragedy, but enough to be an inconvenience.
Second, the lens creep can be plaguing on certain copies of the lens. Sure there is a lock, but this only works on 28mm.
Overall, as with any lens purchase, it's important to decide what kind of lens you need based on the type of images you are shooting for. I need a good range and it's not always handy to switch lenses, so I'm buying the 18-105mm from Nikon.
Note: the manual focus is very smooth, as is the zoom.
