Lens Buying Guide

  • Compatible with Nikon DX DSLR cameras: Works with any Nikon DX camera with an F-Bayonet mount. Also compatible with FX cameras in DX crop mode.
  • Telephoto zoom lens provides detailed photos from a distance: Throw backgrounds out of focus, grab detail and capture vivid close-up shots of distant subjects.
  • 55–200mm focal length: This versatile, long-range zoom lens covers a broad range, enabling you to capture the perfect image from various distances.

Q: Will this lense work with a D3100

A: yes it works on my 3100

Q: Will this lens work with the D5000? How is it different than the lens that the D5000 comes with? I want a telephoto type lens but cannot spend a ton

A: The D5000 usually comes with a 18-55mm lens. This lens is good for casual shooting...landscapes...close up portrait. The 55-200mm lens will be good for creating depth of field (DOF) effect from long distance. Good for general sports shots and nature. The 55-200mm picks up where the 18-55mm leaves off and will be a very good addition to your lens inventory.

Q: Does this lense work with Nikon D3000?

A: Yes, the 55-200 AF-S lens will work with the D3000

Q: Does this lens work with a D300s

A: Of course it does.

Q: Does it work with Nikon D3300? thanks

A: Yes, this product will fit the D3300.
