Spanning wide to tele, the AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR II from Nikon is an ideal all-around lens characterized by an advanced optical design, compact profile, and image stabilization. Three aspherical elements and two extra-low dispersion elements are used to control both spherical and chromatic aberrations, in order to produce high sharpness and clarity, and a Super Integrated Coating works to minimize flare for high contrast and color accuracy. Supporting the optics is VR II image stabilization, which compensates for up to 3.5 stops of camera shake to help realize sharp imagery when shooting handheld. A Silent Wave Motor is also used to provide fast and precise autofocus performance, along with full-time manual focus override.

More DetailsNikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3G ED V... Overview
All-in-one zoom spans wide-angle to telephoto focal lengths and is designed for Nikon F-mount DX-format cameras, where it provides a 27-300mm equivalent range.
Three aspherical elements are used to reduce spherical aberrations and distortion in order to realize sharp imagery with accurate rendering.
Two extra-low dispersion elements greatly reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to produce greater clarity and color accuracy.
A Super Integrated Coating has been applied to individual elements to suppress internal reflections, flare, and ghosting for improved contrast and color accuracy when working in strong lighting conditions.
Silent Wave Motor affords quick, quiet, and precise autofocus performance along with full-time manual focus override. An internal focusing design is also used, where only the internal lens groups are moved during focusing, to maintain the overall length of the lens during use and to promote faster focusing speeds.
VR II (Vibration Reduction) image stabilization helps to minimize the appearance of camera shake by 3.5 stops to benefit shooting handheld in difficult lighting conditions.
Rounded seven-blade diaphragm promotes a pleasing out of focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques.

Does it work with Nikon z6 and ftz adaptor
Does it work with Nikon z6 and ftz adaptor
Yes, it will work! But the lens is for a cropped sensor camera not for the full frame cameras so you will lose image quality.

Why does the image look bent on my d500
Why does the image look bent on my d500
This lens, like most other wide-angle zooms can produce some visible distortion at wide-angles, and is relatively typical. Depending on the severity, it may be correctable in post-processing.

question
Would this lens work for a D600? And if not which telephotos work with a Nikon D600?
While the Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR II Zoom Lens will physically attach onto the Nikon D600 DSLR camera, the lens is designed for Nikon cameras that use the smaller APS-C 1.5x cropped DX sensor; the Nikon D600 uses the full-frame FX sensor. As such, if you use the smaller Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR II Zoom Lens on the D600, it would work in Auto DX-Crop Mode and would reduce the camera's resolution from 24MP down to 10 MP. If you need a similar lens that would work for full-frame FX lenses, then the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR Zoom Lens, B&H # NI28300GAF, would work for your needs.

question
What is the difference between the 18 to 200 VR vs the VRII?
The primary difference between VR and VR II is the zooming mechanism of the VR II, which now features a lock to prevent the zoom from creeping. VR II also features four stop compensation, compared to the original VR's three stop compensation. The image stabilization and sharpness is also improved with VR II.
