This lens ... is just great (for what it is). It's not the fastest, it's not the sturdiest, it's not the best Z lens - but it doesn't try to be all that, either. It's just a very good lens that does reliably well, whatever subject matter you throw at it.
If only Nikon had chosen to put it into a more confidence-inspiring shell (why only a plastic mount without sealing gasket?!) and use the real estate on the housing to give us more amble controls (two rings would fit the barrel, no problem), this would be an instant modern classic. As it is, it's "just" a truely pleasing, compact lens with really impressive optics.
