Cheap cameras have had plastic lenses for years, probably decades. OK on a cheap, non-adjustable camera like the old brownies or Kodak Instamatics. Not really desirable (due to scratching potential). Perhaps the plastics technology has improved.

I don't know if Nikon uses plastic lenses. If so, I am sure it would only be on the low-level models.
