Developed for Nikon's range of high-resolution DX-format cameras, the AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR is a versatile 27-210mm-equivalent all-in-one zoom covering a wide-angle to mid-telephoto range. Helping to achieve impressive image quality, the optical design employs one aspherical element and one extra-low dispersion element, which both help to limit spherical and chromatic aberrations in order to realize great sharpness and color accuracy. Individual elements also feature a Super Integrated Coating, which cuts flare and ghosting to increase contrast when working in harsh lighting conditions. Benefitting handheld shooting, Vibration Reduction minimizes the appearance of camera shake by up to four stops in order to produce sharper imagery. Additionally, a Silent Wave Motor affords fast, near-silent autofocus performance and full-time manual focus override.

Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G 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 27-210mm equivalent range.
One aspherical element is used to reduce spherical aberrations and distortion in order to realize sharp imagery with accurate rendering.
One extra-low dispersion element greatly reduces 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 (Vibration Reduction) image stabilization helps to minimize the appearance of camera shake by 4 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.

How is it that a DX lens on a DX camera increases the working focal length of the lens? An FX lens on a DX camera would clearly increase the focal length because the image is larger than the sensor.
Thank you Kevin. It just seems strange that use of an FX lens on a DX camera also gives a 1.5 crop factor because of the smaller sensor in the camera. An FX lens on a FX camera should not have a crop factor nor should a DX lens on DX camera have a crop factor. I will have to look at what kind of image I get with a DX lens on an FX camera.

Best for family - wedding party ...I have D750 body. Alreay have a 50mm. Whats best 35 or 18-140mm??
This is a DX lens and will reduce the image quality of your camera by only using a portion of the sensor. I would recommend the Nikon 24-120mm lens.

question
Will a polarizing filter on this lens rotate as the lens focuses therefore requiring adjustment of the filter? Or does the front of the lens not rotate? Just comparing this lens to the 18-105.
A polarizing filter will not move when you are adjusting the focus of the Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6 ED VR lens.

question
I am considering buying HB-39 lens hood for my 18-300mm. Would it also work with 18-140mm?
Why not ask a professional via B&H's Live Chat? I have had nothing but good experiences with their advice and helpfulness.

Two questions:
What does the DX stand for?
2. Is this lens compatable with D500?
Yes, the Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR Lens is compatible on the Nikon D500.
DX is the crop format term Nikon uses for their cameras like the D500 that are not full frame. And the sensor is approxemelty 24x16mm. And a full frame is about 36x24mm.
