Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The AF-S VR 70-300 f/4.5-5.6G IF-ED is a high-performance super telephoto zoom lens that has been designed to meet the demands of both digital and 35mm format SLR users. It offers a 4.3x zoom with a range of 70-300mm (105-450mm on a DX Nikon D-SLR) and features ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements that ensure superior optical performance. This lens incorporates Nikon's second-generation vibration reduction system (VR II) that allows flexible hand-held shooting by stabilizing the image to the equivalent extent of using a shutter speed that is four stops faster when compared with a conventional lens (as determined by Nikon performance test). The SWM (Silent Wave Motor) and IF (Internal Focusing) ensure fast and quiet focusing action, and the nine-blade rounded diaphragm makes out-of-focus elements blend smoothly to produce natural-looking, harmonious backgrounds.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Outstanding Lens for the Price
The product was exactly as described and well worth the price. If you shoot outside sports photography - this is the lens that will deliver quality results at a great price. Working with my Nikon D80 SLR from the football sidelines, I could take excellent action shots and closeups, even from the other side of the field. The product also was packed well, shipped promptly and arrived in excellent shape when promised. It was the most expensive product I have ever purchased from Amazon and I would ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great lens
The Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S VR Zoom Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras is fantastic. I have a Nikon D-100 camera. I took pictures of the two shuttles on their pads this weekend and they were great. From 3 miles away the shuttles look like they are just across the road.




Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 300mm zoom lens

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great lens
This is an amazing lens, considering I payed only $455 for it.
Sharpness is very good throughout the range accept 300mm. VR feature comes in quite handy and helps in many situations.
All in all great product and great deal.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A solid upgrade from the 55-200mm
All in all, I am very happy with this lens.

I own a Nikon D40x, and up to now I've shot with the kit 18-55mm, the Nikon 50mm f1.8, and Nikon's 55-200mm. I've been getting more and more into nature photography, and the limits of the 55-200 were annoying me, both in terms of auto focus speed and zoom. I thought long and hard about what to do, though. The 70-300mm is an obvious choice, but I also thought I might want to put my money into Nikon's legendary 18-200mm. I figured that 300mm ... Read More
