New lens - Jocko - Feb 12, 2016

Here are some photographs, taken using my new 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 VR II lens. Taken at first light on a freezing cold morning, I am really pleased with them.

John, those are very nice shots. I especially like the last in the series. Your composition is superb. The 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 VRII is a great lens, especially between f5.6 and f8 where is gives excellent sharpness wall-to-wall. I also find the "macro" capability very useful and even though I have an AF-S DX NIKKOR 16-85mm ƒ/3.5-5.6G ED VR and a couple of primes I always carry an 18-55 VRII in my bag.

A very good set, John - I like particularly #2 and #5.

The crane driver must be one of those at the highest level in his profession, but who would want his daily walk to work?! Smile

Cheers.
