Great lens. Sharp photos. Very fast auto focus. Highly recommend it. Only thing I don't like is that it does not come with a lens hood.

Excellent lens for a great camera. I use my D500 for sports, Z6 for everything else, and my Z50 with 50-250 when I want to travel light. The perfect trio for me. This 50-250 helps me make great pictures. What more is there to say?

Excellent quality, reasonable price, sharp. Great prosumer lens. Plastic construction and lens mount however build seems robust enough to take normal use in stride. VR works well. Not intended for low light use. However it works surprisingly well in difficult light. Exceeds my expectations!

This lens is excellent. It is very sharp and focuses fast. Wide open it is sharp corner to corner and stopped down it is slightly sharper. It is nearly an 80-400mm, so it is very versatile. The lens focuses closely, so you can get macro-like shots. It is very lightweight. Very travel friendly too. For the price alone, or in the bundle, it is a no brainer.

I'll admit, I was not expecting much as I have never purchased "kit" packages before. I shoot mostly the D850 and primes. I was beyond surprised at the sharpness, contrast and color of this lens. If you have this package or lens, go out and use it, you won't be disappointed.

Used with my Z50 and I am absolutely happy with this lens. It is sharp and the minimum focus range coupled with the Z50 is great for closeups.

Compact, lightweight and very sharp. A very good match for the Z50. Images can be cropped way down when necessary and still retain detail and sharpness. Very impressive. Especially impressive considering the price when included in the Z50 2 lens kit.

The DX 50-250 mm lens on the Z50 body makes for an outstanding pair for a truly great walk-around solution. Add the DX 16-50 mm lens and most common image capture scenarios are covered. The Z50 kit lenses are very sharp and light weight. I often shoot in after-sunset low light situations and find both lenses on the Z50 to be surprisingly good. The DX 50-250 mm lens provides plenty of reach in a compact format. Since purchasing the Z50 + two kit lenses I have not shot with my D750 + 24-120 mm, simply due to the size and weight advantage of the Z50 with comparable image quality to a full-frame DSLR.

I took this lens with me to Tuscany over 1 year ago and used it for the whole trip. It was light and compact while allowing me to zoom in for detail. I am pleased with the sharpness of the lens. I do landscape and photos of details such as flowers or sculpted design for the most part. It is nice to have a camera and lens that is light to carry and well balanced for shooting handheld.I can use it on both my Z50 and Z6 camera bodies, too.
