Review Summary

I acquired this lens as a part of the package for a D5600 dx. This lens surprised me as to it's ability to sharply and completely focus at high shutter speed completely freezing the motion of hummingbirds' wings in flight. True it is not VR, however, using a tripod to capture hummingbirds in flight is problematic. I got with some old timers who shared their experience with older and non vr lenses and they showed me a trick and two and its made me a better photographer. Yeah, this lens and the old guys makes wildlife photography an adventure. I love the economy of it, the light weight, and its versatility. In fact, my D5600 and this lens insures that I will be hiring someone else to mow my lawn this year.

I've had this lens for about 6 years as I bought it with my very first Nikon Camera. Over the years, as I have learned and grown as a photographer, this lens has continued to perform and deliver. With a little patience and practice even without a tripod, shooting at 300mm is fun, provided there is enough light to allow one to shoot at fast shutter speeds. The included photo was taken with the Nikon D3400 and this lens.

I have 6 Nikon lenses in various focal lengths and this one is a absolute gem. You can spend $1000. on another Nikon, Sigma, or Tamron lens and not get the sharpness, quietness, and fast focus this lens delivers. Yes, it's non VR, but for shooting with a tripod or bracing, this is the lens you want since vr needs to be off. I've captured sharp images at it's full 300mm length and they look great. No distortion, purple fringing, or vignetting ..just clear and sharp images. Get it, shoot it, smile.

It looks pretty but does not zoom nor has VR working. I'll keep trying to make it work but will send it back if it keeps failing in my tests.
