Digital camera reviews of Nikon 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED IF AF-S DX VR Zoom Nikkor Lens
Digital camera Review: Nikon 55-200 MM Lens
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a compact, light weight lens. The range is perfect for general photography. Love it. The VR feature is perfect.Digital camera Review: Right Ammo
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the right ammunition for amateurs. The VR is an enhancement to get the right picture whether you're still or mobile.Digital camera Review: Great lens for the price
Summary: 5 Stars
THis lens is recommended for any amatuer photographer that is looking for a reliable, crisp fairly priced telephoto lens. You could get a cheaper one, but for a few bucks more, this Nikon is awesome!Digital camera Review: Very Pleased!
Summary: 5 Stars
This lens is a great addition to my 18-55 kit lens. It is very sharp and lightweight. I took many photos with it in the past month and it was a joy to use. I was able to handhold at very slow shutter speeds with no sign of camera movement, even at 200mm. The only thing it was unable to cope with was autofocusing in heavy fog over water. It was a great bargain and I would buy another if I lost this one.Digital camera Review: Not bad, but not enough for pro photographers
Summary: 3 Stars
For the price, this lens is sharper than you would think. Since this is a DX lens, you get decent telephoto ranges on most Nikon digital SLRs. However, you don't want to use this on a D3 or a D700 as those cameras would be limited to a mere 5.1 MP. All in all, not a bad deal for beginners, amateurs or occasional photographers.
However, this lens has some problems for pros and semi-pros. It's slow. It's not good for sports or event photography and you're going to want lots of light when shooting with this lens.
If you need a cheap telephoto for a camera with a DX sensor, this isn't bad. I just prefer Nikon's prime lenses.
