Honestly I don’t get the obsession with 70-200 lenses. I returned it and got a Tamron 28-300 for my full frame DSLR Nikon D750.
200mm isn’t a lot of range especially for how large and heavy they are. Yeah the 28-300 has its limitations in low light but I’m not shooting for National Geographic.

Lens is fast and crisp. So glad they aren’t just trying to take advantage of the market and charge the same for a used car.

I was apprehensive to use a lens that wasn’t a Nikon branded lens. I’m not a professional photographer so, it’s ok for me to not have a professional grade lens. Great product. The clarity is as good as Nikkor lens I had previously.

This lens is connected to my D750 and I'm stoked. So far it is smooth and my pictures are clear. i can see the hairs on a face when I crop.When the price FINALLY came down i didn't hesitate. It was well packaged brand new ,fully functional.I'm happy. May give another review later, but right now I am going to get busy wit-it ...

Love this lens! Since my husband and I shoot weddings together, we needed a second zoom lens for our second camera body, and it’s awesome! Images are sharp, and bokeh is nice despite the aperture not being lower.

Half the price of Nikon , its vibration reduction is awesome. I’m able to take great pictures with 200mm and the 2.8f gives the portrait look or i can turn off for a zoomed photo. Just little big lens through

Coming from the previous version of this lens, and I'm not disappointed at all. It's sharper, and has a better feel to it as well. Although the site never shows it as being in stock, I received it within a week after order.

I got the Tamron 70-200 g2 because of the price. The image quality is unmatched. If you don't get the G2 your missing out . A must buy
