    Great lens. The focus is fast, and the images are sharp.

    I bought this lens for a wildlife photography trip. I'm a beginner-intermediate photographer and although I'm sure the lens is powerful enough for experts, it was also easy to use for a hobbyist. The only downside is weight - it is pretty heavy for its size. I used a tripod with no problems. Very happy with my purchase.

    Wonderful- Adaptable to both my old and new Nikon cameras. Does not work well for pictures that are close. Heavy lens. Needed to practice using it prior to actually using it.

    We used this lens to take baseball pictures. Even pictures in the outfield are awesome. It is heavy but you get some awesome pictures!

    You won't be sorry. Fast, sharp, and hand-holding (I'm a 5'5" female photographer and not a body build) is totally do-able.

    I didn't expect tack sharp images from this relatively cheap lens. after taking 100 shots with D7100, I realized this is very sharp lens. amazing.. but the lens is heavy than I imagined so I recommend to use at least mono pod.
