  • Which of these lenses is better?

    Hello people,

    I am looking for a 18-55mm lens for my Nikon, and I found out that there are two almost similar models:

    - Nikon 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED II AF-S DX
    - Nikon 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED AF-S DX

    The difference being that one is version 2... What does it mean? Version 2 is actually $80 cheaper than version 1, so right now, I will need to ask you guys for advise on which lens should I buy.

    Thanks!

    Bit strange yes, to have two lenses that are quite similar. According to Ken Rockwell, there is not much difference, lense no. II seems to be replacing the first:

    So it seems to me that is you want it, buy the cheaper one
