Review on Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED IF AF-S VR Nikkor Zoom Lens for Nikon DSLR Cameras with Enhanced SEO by Miyazaki Kiyoshi ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Do not hesitate to buy, the quality is amazing for the price.

Bought in addition to kit 18-105mm VR and portrait fix 50mm f/1.8. Compared with the whale - heaven and earth. Focusing speed is several times faster and, most importantly, more accurate! It feels like the lens itself catches what I want to aim at. This, of course, is a joke - however, to change the focus point, I only slightly deflect the "sight", and it instantly clings to the desired object. The lens is massive, but I do not find a minus in this, but quite the contrary. First, it is more comfortable in the hand. Secondly, the greater the mass, the higher the inertia (this is pure physics). Therefore, the camera shakes less. Here again thanks to the great VR. The lens is very sharp, even around the edges! At the short end, I can’t tell at all what I shot with - a fixed 50 or this zoom 70-300 (of course, taking into account the correction for distance). A little confused by the tightness of the zoom ring. But I just compare this with 18-105, that one is lighter and softer. Still unusual (at first) clicks VR. In general, I am very satisfied and I can recommend it to everyone, you will not regret buying it!

Pros
  • Excellent image clarity, autofocus is almost instantaneous, the stabilizer is very pleased - during the day it is simply impossible to take blurry pictures even at the long end. Suitable for both crop and full frame - i. E. can be taken "for growth". Low price. Hood and case included.
Cons
  • Already wrote, I can only repeat myself: yes, a bit dark. This glass is not for handheld night shooting. And it lathers a little at 300 mm.
