Customer Ratings & Reviews

glad I added this to my purchase when I bought my nikon 3300. Takes great photos and allows for my camera to zoom in significantly more than the standard lens.

Fixed lenses are great and all, but sometimes you just have to be able to zoom in for that winning shot! The Nikkor 55-200mm lens does it all. The small end captures most everything you would shoot on any given day. The long end gives you the flexibility to shoot from a distance. Face it, there's just some things you dont want to shoot up close. With the added VR technology we've grown to love, shooting videos is a "Snap!". The steadiness is, well, extremely steady! And the ability to switch between manual and auto focus gives you focal freedom that everyone could appreciate.

I use this all the time with my Nikon D3200 for anything further than 10 feet or so away. It captures great detail and is great for a beginner photographer.

It is really easy to attach and reattach this lens to the body and it zooms and is really a great lens.. I would really recommend this to another

I am very happy with the quality of this lens. The standard lens that came with my camera was 18-55mm. I debated long and hard over getting this 55-200mm zoom, or buying the 18-200mm instead. In hindsight, I really wish I would have gone with the 18-200mm, only because I end up swapping lenses out multiple times now on each photo outing. I do a lot of zoom work, but when photographing my kids, I like the pulled back shots so I can actually see the background of where they are and what they are doing without having to be several feet back from them. Don't get me wrong, for the price, this lens is great. I just have to be better at planning the types of shots I'm going to take to avoid the lens swapping.

Pros: -Good range -Good for photo sessions -Easy to focus Cons: -Doesnt has a low aperture

Great lens,easy to use,light weight, takes great photos.

This is great as well, I am a beginner. I am able to utilize many of the great parts of the new camera and lense.

I teach a class called EAST in Arkansas and I bought this to add to the collection for my Nikon D7100. Students like the zoom and clarity of pictures. A friend has a Nikon D90 and it worked great on his camera as well. Auto-Focus is a great and a must.

I got the D3200 with a 18-55 mm lens and added this 55-200 mm Nikon R lens to it. I think both of these lens together is ideal for a begineer since it will let you shoot both near and far away objects.

I bought this lens for my wife to use with her Nikon 3200 camera. The standard lens was not good for taking long range photos. She instantly feel in love with this lens. She constantly talks about the lens long range ability and how easy it is to use.

The Nikon Nikkor 55-200mm is very good lens for someone who's just starting or just trying to shoot a little more further. The lens take pretty sharp pictures and if your into landscape photography this is a decent one too. You could also take portrait photos but I'd rather use the stock 18-50mm or a prime 50mm lens.

I have been using this lens now for a few weeks and have really enjoyed it. I do not know that much about photography, but am learning, and this lens is very easy to use and operate. Really enjoyed taking pictures of the super moon with this lens.

Grreat product! It was easy to put on camera and change out from other lens.. pics came out clear!!

Purchased this lense primarily to use in my classroom. I take lots of photos of the children and this lense works much better than the zoom in the confines of the classroom. Pictures are bright and clear. This works well with on the tripod with the remote which makes posed photos a breeze.

I really like the zoom lens because I can get a close up photos even when I am far away from a person or event. It is easy to put the lens on and it helps me take really good picftures,

Luckily these are priced reasonable as this is the lens I take everywhere. It is the second one I purchased... first one got dropped, but again it is a good affordable lens.

I purchased this lens for my wife as she is still learning to use her DSLR camera and it works great. The lens produces excellent pictures and the zoom works great for close-ups.

This was a great addition to our Nikon camera. I will probably get the next step up also.

I bought th I s to add on my camera. It's simple to use, and it does a great job. I use it for bird and wildlife watching. I've been an temperature photo bug for a long time and this does the trick for me very well
