What is the difference between this lens when its model number is G005, G005NII, G005E, and/or any other model number it may have?

The E is for Canon mount, NII for Nikon, S for Sony. When you're on the product page and you click the different brands, you'll see the model number change accordingly.

I would thank that you would. Have to read all of the spectra for each model # and compare closely, could be an extra coating on the linse, could be minimem focal distence just compare very closely

The correct hood is ALC-SH119.PS the 18-135 is a nice lens but I find myself using my Sigma 18-250 more.less noise when focusing and fast,accurate focus.

Hi Enrique,I wish I had a clear cur answer. I use some new lenses and some 'E" series lenses made by Nikon. The adapters are different on each.The E series lenses were made in the early 1980's and are a GREAT value however their mounts are different than the 18-55. Sorry I cannot be of more help. Maybe go the B&H; photo and see if they have a close-up of your lens and compare that with the 18-55?Best,Haji Mahmood

Robert - Only had the lens for a couple of hours - it had quite a bit of distortion at 18mm.. plus the one I received was a "grey" market one.. no us warranty.. and I was not comfortable with that.. so, I returned it. Never used it in the field.. hope this helps..

The obvious difference is the cosmetics. The G lens is silver whereas the G 2 is white. What I noticed otherwise was the G 2 focuses slightly faster. Both are fine lenses.

I have the sel18105G. I didn't compare it with other lens and I am an amateur photographer. All I can say is that I think it is great withnice crisp photos.

This lens is newer, lighter, and smaller than the other one but has a 1/3 stop difference at maximum aperture. (f/3.5-6.3 vs. f/3.5-5.6) The more expensive one also comes with a lens hood and case, and has a focus distance indicator. This one doesn't come with any of them but you can always buy a lens hood and case separately. There are other technical differences but these are the differences most people are concerned with.

I bought my K5 brand new last Summer. And the Weather Resistant lens WAS INCLUDED. How can you tell a WR lens from a regular old non-WR lens? Look at the photo. There is a green ring on the front part of the lens body. That means it's WR. If the green ring is toward the back of the lens body, it's just a regular, non-WR lens. Look at the photos of the camera from the seller. If you want the newer Pentax K5 model, buy the Pentax K5 II. It has a few more improvements. But the K5 models from last year are selling at a more discounted price, if you look hard enough.

I have both the E=M 10 as well as the E-M 5ii and the lens is great with either. Its a worthwhile purchase for the price. I find it sharp, exellent color and a good all around lens for eveeyday use.

The only significant differences are lumens(brightness) and power consumption. HD25 = 2000 ANSI lumens ; HD25e = 2800 ANSI lumens. HD25 = Max 339W (Normal), Min 241W (Eco+), &lt;0.5W (standby-ECO) ; HD25e = Max 262W (Normal), Min 191W (Eco), &lt;0.5W (standby-ECO). You're better off with the HD25e as it is brighter and uses less power. Also, the HD25e does not come with a lens cap like the HD25 does, but this seems pretty trivial to me.

The K-5 is replaced by the K-5ii. Go to DPReview for comparisons between the two. The lens is AF, but the lens may or may not be weather resistant. If it says 'WR' in the name than yes.

From what I can tell they are the same components. Having not actually examined the powershot lens kit, there might be a subtle difference in suppliers of the components. I'm thinking not. The Ultimate lens package we had puchased for our G10 worked out fine and for the price was a "no brainer".

This is a USA lens. Amazon price was competitive (for a Nikon, which I consider somewhat overpriced... But, honestly, it is a much better lens than the competition, based on the comments in reviews on sites such as this AND various photography 'enthusiast' sites (such as photo magazine sponsored sites). I have NOT personally, physically compared to the competition, but I'm happy with the purchase.).

I don't know. I only own a GX7. but but it's a very well engineered highly functional lens

It looks like this one is for Nikon. They make one for Canon, I own it and it's amazing. Absolutely love this lens.

The lens is imported from overseas, so it is not eligible for Nikon warranty or rebates. There is no difference in the item itself. You can purchase a 3rd party warranty for pretty cheap though.

I could not find a difference so I went with the cheaper lens and it has been very good. Since I don't have the II to compare I can't say for sure.. My only complaint on this lens is that the focus motor is noisy when shooting video On the canon 5i.. that could be a problem with all the lens.
