This lens has bang for the buck; it is user friendly and about the perfect zoom length for long portrait to moderately long zoom shots.

Consistent Output; Fast / accurate auto-focus

Very smooth zoom control; 100% compatible with my Nikon D3000 which is several years old now

Didn't realise that this lens was not suitable for standard people shots; My fault for not reading the spec carefully

I bought this lens to replace my Nikkor 18-200mm AF-S ED which seem to stop working all together, I thought it was the camera, but after mounting it on my friends Nikon D3300, he had the same issue I had. I paid $750 for that lens in 2006 and I like the size (72mm filter size).

This is perhaps the best bang for the buck for a telephoto lens out there in the APS-C world. It's tack sharp corner to corner at wide open apertures and from wide to long FOV, suffers from almost no chromatic aberration and has negligible distortion, plus it's parfocal, so it stays in focus as you...

Lightweight; compact; astoundingly sharp; great bokeh; parfocal; highly effective VR; dirt cheap if you get it refurbished in a DX camera/2 lens kit

MF is very hard to do with its short ring turning angle and its total lack of resistance; zoom ring could be smoother; at f/5.6 at the long end it's quite dark; and it doesn't have the fastest or quietest AF motor (but is fast and quiet enough); but hey I

This is great for taking far away pictures. I use it for taking close ups of my son when he's pitching or batting in his games. The quality of the photos is excellent!

Very lightweight lens considering focal length of 55-200mm, equivalent to 300mm on my cropped sensor camera body. And it collapses down to the same length as my 18-55mm kit lens which it complements really well.

Excellent lens!!!! Great price!!!!

Light weight..; Fast focusing

Got it for rs 9999. A must have lens for travelling and entry level wildlife shots. Paired it with nikon D5200. Awesome bokeh and great shots in daylight. However it suffers a bit to autofocus in dark or low light conditions.

This is good been out take photos of wild life am happy with it's good start lens go. Good with my d 5300

Very happy with this lens on my d3200 have taken some great pis so far
