Wherever your passion lies, this outstanding super telephoto zoom lens can bring it into focus. Capture and share stunning views of birds, wildlife, motorsports, athletes, performers, landmarks and other faraway subjects.

This lens will become a classic, if it\'s not already so! The most bang for you buck for a Nikon branded lens of this focal range, out of this world VR, very useful range, not too heavy, very good build quality, f/5.6 is quite useful and a good compromise. What else could you hope for.

Locks only at 200mm, and the locking system is fragile; Make sure you are at 200mm before atempting to lock it, otherwise you risk breaking the internal locking system, which probably is just a little piece of plastic; Also, don\'t try to extend the zoom if it\'s locked for the same reason.

Very easy to handle, light for such a range and usefulness; Pretty fast for a lens of this price; VR is pretty outstanding, never used a Nikkor with such an efficient VR system; Photos handheld at 500mm and 1/30s become a reality, yes, read that again...
