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 **Q: does the lens come with a lens hood ?** A: Yes It Comes With Lens hood Great Lens **Q: Is this lens compatible with the Nikon D610 ?** A: From what I can glean on the computer it would appear that the FX range lenses are compatible with the Nikon D610.
