    The zoom is too aggressive for indoor shots. Easy to use and well made.

    What a great lens. High quality images. Very compact & light weight considering the almost 4 times zooming range. Close focusing is also very good. Buying it in conjunction with the D5500 kit made for a very good bargain.

    Was looking for a lense for some time when a friend recommended this one. Looked at some reviews and figured I'd give this a try. Pretty decent results for the price. Easy to use and would recommend this to others

    This lens is a great complement to the 18-55mm lens that came with the camera body. It takes excellent medium-distance shots with little/no time to focus. Perfect for beginners who want pro-like pix.

    When I purchased a Nikon 330 I was offered a package with this lens. I own several lenses with my old FTN and like what they add to my capability. This lens gives me the same availability in one lens.

    I decided to go with this instead of purchasing the bundle for less that included the 300mm lens. This lens is just a little shy of the 300 for distance , but it does not require a tripod whenever I use it since it can stabilize itself and help not blur photos. It costs more but I didn't want to haul a tripod around every time I put the zoom lens on. works nicely and got some really good close up action shots at some sporting events.

    This came with the kit I purchased and allows me a good amount of extra zoom when I need it. This is a great product for beginners and works well with the 18-55mm that came with my camera.

    I was looking for something bigger than the one that had been included with my camera. I decided to take a chance with this one, and so far, I love it! It works so beautifully, and some of the pictures I've taken with my camera have also helped with some college assignments. Awesome item!

    This lens is a must for all levels of photographer. My only regret is that I didn't get it in the package when I purchased the camera. The only draw back is that there was not a lens pouch in the box. It states that there was suppose to be one. Awesome product.
