Not a constant-aperture zoom, Quite pricey to buy,
Nikon makes some pretty spectacular DX (APS-C) format DSLRs, like the D7500 and D500. If you're lucky enough to have one, it's only natural that you'd want a high-performance standard zoom to match. The AF-S DX 16-80mm ticks almost all of the right boxes...

5x zoom range, Fast f/2.8-4 maximum aperture, Compact, lightweight design, Fast, consistent autofocus, Good image quality for a kit lens
