I get to know a lens, zoom or prime, after about a few thousand images through it. After about 3k's of shooting, this lens has come on to be a favourite companion for urban and candid shooting.
Pros:
  • The images produced are almost as convincing as a higher end expensive lens
  • Small for a powerfull zoom
  • Lightweight and stealth friendly
  • My favourite for urban journalism
  • VR lets me shoot in low light like never before
  • Bargain cost
Cons:
  • Plastic mount

Prisvärt!

Ville komplettera mitt objektiv som följde med i paketpris till min D60. Tittade på sigmas 55-300 och denna. Efter noga övervägande så valde jag ändå denna.
Pros:
  • Riktigt bra objektiv! Det är mycket objektiv för pengarna
  • det andas kvalité.
Cons:
  • Det enda negativa jag kan komma på är att när du ska utnyttja den till fullo och ta bilder långt bort så skulle jag rekommendera stativ om du inte är så stadig på handen.

persseverent amateur

Good quality plastic lens, not for a pro ( which I also am not), lightweight and fast focusing. No issue with the plastic ring mount, I hope it will hold up well.
Pros:
  • Good quality plastic lens, not for a pro ( which I also am not), lightweight and fast focusing
  • No issue with the plastic ring mount, I hope it will hold up well
Cons:
  • Not as versatile as my 18-200mm VR that came with my D200
  • but since I carry 2 bodies at all times
  • it does not make much of a diffrence

I love this lens. It's one of the available kit lenses for the D5000 I bought recently. It's light weight and produces some extremely crisp results. The zoom action is very smooth and the VR feature works quite well in low light, allowing hand-held images to be taken where a tripod would have to be...

Great Lens

I am a novice, but wanted to purchase the zoom lens for my Nikon camera. It's super easy to change the lens and use. It comes with a nice pouch to store the lens in. I was extremely happy that my order arrived sooner than expected.

Great Lens

I bought this lens just hours before my daughter's first dance recital. I didn't know that they were going to totally refuse any flash film, but luckily I didn't need it. I was able to take awesome clear pics in nearly a zero-light setting, except for the stage.
Pros:
  • Consistent Output
  • Durable
  • Fast / accurate auto-focus
Cons:
  • Tough To Attach

A good budget lens

This lens does not offer as long of a zoom range as the 18-200mm lens, but is much less expensive and produces sharp images. It also includes vibration reduction (image stabilization) technology for reducing camera "shake". This lens is compact and lightweight, making it a great choice for travel.

Bought it for my trip to Yellowstone. My camera is an old Nikon D40 with kit lens. New Nikon Nikkor 55-200mm was a great help to shoot outdoors, especially animals. Pictures were sharp and clear. The lens was not a burden, though I hiked a lot.
