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

great lens to shoot distant objects Problems: none

This Lens I use it for Nature and Wildlife. Zoom works great for far targets and is very comfortable. Problems: None at All...

Top shelf image quality, VR and tough all for a decent price ! Pros: Descent sharpness, CA well controlled and good AF speed in daylight. Cons: Rotating front element is a minor pain when using a polarizer. Used this lens for just under a year now on the D5000 & D5100. Great for outside shooting, birding, etc. Also good for inside portrait/flash shooting. Actually ran into a post while chasing a bird....the lens was slammed dead on but withstood the abuse, surprised me how tough this light ...

This is a fantastic piece of glass. Images are sharp. Almost a silent lens. feels very good in hand. Grip is good. Have a metal mount. For a lens this heavy, metal mount is good. Thus I don't have to fear about breaking my lens mount. Overall I am very much pleased with this lens which I am using for 4 months now. -Saabeet
