    Best Buy was running a great deal when I bought my Nikon D3200 and I ended up getting this lens for $100 off. This lens is a great upgrade from the standard lens that cam with my camera. If you a looking for a lens that allows you greater zooming control this may be the one for you. I have used this lens for video a couple of times, but mostly use it for photography.

    Remember to get an addutiolal lens with your camera to capture the telephoto and zoom photographs. the lens should carry the VR specs for usability

    I have only used this lens a few times, but it is nice for capturing distant objects. I initially purchased it to be able to capture birds midflight, but it doesn't quite zoom as far it would need to for that function.
