Nikon Nikkor AF-S DX 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR review

Most telephoto zoom lenses designed specifically for APS-C rather than full-frame DSLRs have a zoom range of about 50-200mm. This gives them an effective zoom range of 75-300mm on Nikon camera bodies such as the D3100 and D5100 , very close to the classic telephoto zoom range of 70-300mm on...

The extra 100mm focal length definitely adds and increases quality and range of shots. A friends Mother has tried this lense and loves it also. When lent to Her for evaluation my fear was of never getting it back!
Pros:
  • Easy To Use
  • Extra range of shots
  • Improves Picture Quality
Cons:
  • Slight increase in weight

" I love this lens "

Totally amatuer photographer that knows just enough about cameras and photography to snap a truly memorable pic every now and then. Lens offers the opportunity to create nice pics for daylight portraits/landscapes and fast action sports, but I struggle to get any keepers in low-light fast action...

Nikon AF-S Nikkor 55-300mm f4.5-5.6G ED VR

Arguably the least glamorous of Nikon's most recent lens announcements, this DX format zoom is intended to partner the 18-55mm kit lens bundled with the new D3100 and D5000. It's also meant as an alternative to the existing 55-200mm VR, offering more reach as the equivalent to an 82-450mm on a 35mm...

Nikon AF-S DX 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR Review

Nikon's zoom manages to provide a reasonable 5.5x zoom range. It also has the added benefit of coming complete with a protective carrying pouch. Nikon's layout follows the common arrangement, with a narrow focusing ring at the front of the lens and a wide zoom ring behind it.

Wonderful Lens!

A wonderful piece of equipment and nicely made. Super clean glass (and make sure it stays tat way!) that takes crisp photos.
Pros:
  • I was very excited to open this lens when I got it in the mail
  • I bought it specifically for comet PanSTARRS and ISON (which will be arriving later in the year) as well as to extend the possibilities of range since I like to go hiking far away from city lights to take images of the environment,...
Cons:
  • N/A
