Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this to take softball pictures of high school player and itm works great for me.Wish I had gotten one sooner.

Package deals with the Nikon D3200 usually offer several extra lens options. I took the longer lens to be able to use it at sporting events. It was a bit more than the other option (which was a 200mm if I recall), but I've enjoyed the fact that I can get nice closeups from the "cheap seats" at sporting events.

I've been waiting to purchase this lens for a while. I use it mainly for shooting my kids' sports events. So happy to see the price has come down.

Simple click and replace between lenses. Replace one wiht the other and point and shoot. I love the ecellent picture quality across the whole range.

Bought this lense for my husband, and it was exactly what he wanted. we took it to the Biltmore in Ashville and took some fantastic photos.

I love this lens. I use it way more than my 18-55. I just love how it zooms and focuses.

Excellent lense for shooting at a long distance. Very easy to use for beginners.

So not as "fast" as a 2.8 straight through lens, but also 1/5 the price. Due to the DX format of the lens, very lightweight but still Nikkor quality. So great lens for a telephoto with a reasonable price.

Bought this lense because it was in a package. Wish I would have gotten the deal from the week before. It had the 300mm lense, which would have been better for recording my daughter in her soccer games. Still love this one though!

The 55 to 300 zoom lens compliments the 18 to 55 lens which typically comes with the camera.

Just right for birders. get close without scarying them away.

It is really great. It takes exceptionally clear pictures.

I Love it!!!!! Just shot a wedding, can't wait to do another two this summer!!!

Very good lens. Easy use and Taken good shots with full zoom.

Pictures are crisp even in zoom. Recommend a tripod and remote shutter.

Very good quality lense, it takes amazing shots for what I like to do.

I really like this zoom lens. I does exactly what I need it to do.

Pictures come out great and it's simple to attach and change.

Was able to purchase at good price. Works great with Nikon D60.

Love the build and feel of this lens . . . I've used cheap lenses before and they feel flimsy and clicky. The Nikon 55-300 is solid and smooth in its use. Photo sharpness is very nice with this lens and I've found it to be more reliable than my comparable Canon lens. One issue I had with the Nikon, however - its photos had significant vignetting. I found this to be disappointing. I've attached a photo that shows the vignetting, particularly in the upper corners. Overall, this is a solid lens with good sharpness - vignetting aside, it's a bargain for a Nikon lens.
