This lens is sharp even at wide apertures, the Vibration Reduction (image stabilization) works great, autofocus speed is more than acceptable, and it is very light and compact. No other company offers a lens with these features at this price.

Great lens at a good price. Fast shipping.

The NIKKOR 55-200mm f/4-5.6G IF-ED Lens lets me capture brilliant shots thanks to the inventive Vibration Reduction technology. Its price does not hurt too.

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.

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

product is same as he described, but should add that hood and lens back cover are not included

hood cover and lens back cover would have added nice touch

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.

Consistent Output; Durable; Fast / accurate auto-focus

Tough To Attach

It was definitely a good product. No doubt about that. Only problem was that Snapdeal faltered in the timely delivery bit. The delivery was rescheduled and the item landed well after the original deadline.

Best Pick Under A Very Good Price. Using this lens from 6-7 months impressed with bokeh effect. You can feel the difference between VR and Non VR. Go for it.

Good choice for this money and for amateur users

lightweight; HSM; VR; big zoom ring

Plastic lens mount; average optical quality; pop-up design; huge vignetting

A solid performer that punches above its price point...I own the Tamron 70-300 VC, which has better IQ and markedly better image stabilization, but at the price of heft. When I want a "light kit" and portability is paramount, this lens shines.

light; inexpensive; excellent IQ given its variable aperture

cheaper build; VR a tad less effective than stated
