Also, what screw-in filter thread/size does this use?

Some of these answers have somehow got into the wrong section and caused nothing but confusion! The item referred to for sale is the Nikkor 18~55mm zoom, ALL of which have a 52mm filter thread. How the 18~105mm became likned I cannot imnagine. The table above shows what is required for all these "short zooms"

would this lens be good for taking pictures of landscapes and buildings?

This lens is good for everything from general photographs landscape and portrait,. I found it worked fine . afrom what I have been told and from reviews the 18 -140mm if you can afford it would give to the extra zoom. I found the lens went well for all uses with my 55-300mm. A good buy

does the lens come with a lens hood ?

Yes It Comes With Lens hood Great Lens

Is this lens compatible with the Nikon D610 ?

From what I can glean on the computer it would appear that the FX range lenses are compatible with the Nikon D610. I use the D3100 and D5100 so I would visit a local camera shop.All I have done is entered FX lenses and compatibility. Best advice that I can offer DRW
