Nikon 70-300mm 

Clearance: Used Nikon 70-300mm f/4-5.6G AF Telephoto Zoom Nikkor Lens (Black) F MFR: 1928.

For anyone seeking a high quality telephoto zoom lens for portraits and action photography at a very affordable price, the Nikon AF Zoom Nikkor 70-300mm f/4-5.6G Lens is a great solution.  This very compact telephoto zoom lens is fully compatible with the Nikon N65 as well as Nikon's Professional D-series Digital SLR, 35mm Professional F5, F100, N80, N75 and Advanced Photo System Pronea cameras. Compact and lightweight, with a comfortable, well-balanced feel, the 4.3x zoom lens is ideal for candid shots, portraits, travel and sports photography.   A key design element considered that the newest Nikon SLR models have built-in aperture control (via the Command Dial), and therefore do not require that the lens have an aperture control ring. With this point in mind, the G lenses omit the aperture ring, resulting a lighter and more compact lens.   NOTE: G-type Nikkor lenses are fully compatible with the F5, F100, N80, N65, N60, N50, N4004-series, PRONEA 6i, PRONEA S, D100 and D-series (or any newer model, except D40/D40x & D60) cameras. They are not compatible with other Nikon cameras. For the F4, N90-series, N70, N8008-series and N6006 cameras, only programmed auto or shutter-priority auto exposure mode can be used.   Note! AF not supported by D40,D40x, D60, D3000 & D5000 cameras. 

Used Nikon 70-300mm f/4-5.6G AF Telephoto Zoom Nikkor Lens (Black) F

its a really sharp nikkor lens however on my Nikon D7000s I find it hunts & pecks for even stationary subjects
if that doesnt bother you or you arent shooting moving subjects its a great lens
the "G" gelded works on about 90% of nikon cameras
its a FX full frame lens or 35mm capable lens add 1.5 X crop factor or 42 to 450mm for DX crop cameras

its a really sharp nikkor lens

Lens arrived in perfect condition and better than expected. It was listed as used but looks and performs like new. Love it!!!

Nikon 70-300 lens

Good

I have been using this lens on my 2 cameras for years now, it’s a lightweight and quick focusing when lighting is good, slower focus in poor light, but still gets the job done!

Good economy lens

It works super well with portraits and sports. Great price for a great lens.

Awesome lens for a great price

This lens fits all Nikon & delivers a great distance lens at a reasonable price

Nikon Lens 70-300mm

Beautiful lense, easy to attach to camera, was able to take incredibly clear, close up pictures at quite a distance.

High School Graduation

Lens was everything I was hoping for. I'm just learning the best ways to use it and I believe I will truly appreciate this product.

excellent rating

This lens was Easy to use  and worked with the automatic settings.  My pictures are very clear and crisp. I love the lens. I would highly recommend it.

Great

Fantastic lens. Sharp as a tack, and the VR works perfectly.
I bought it mostly for Air Shows, where the Nikon 1's fast focusing shines, but it's so much fun to use that I've been using it for all kinds of photography: birds and animals, details of old buildings, even portraits.
It's big for a Nikon 1 lens, but tiny for it's reach.
A bit expensive, but worth every penny

Amazing!

Initial impression is that's it's a beautifully clear, fast autofocusing well balanced lens; just getting started using it, more to come as I get more experience with it.

Great first impression!

Great lens! Great price!

This was a Christmas present and I have just gotten started trying it out. I am really having fun and am really pleased with the exposures I'm getting

new Lens

This lens opens up a new dimension for long range photography.  A GREAT addition to my photo bag!

Great addition to my camera equipment.

This lens was also on the lower end of the pricing scale but it has performed extremely well.  I take astrophotography pictures using this lens with a Nikon D810-A and the images are much better than I expect.  Even when pointing straight up there is no sliding out of focus.  I would definitely recommend this lens.

Performs well

We purchased this as a Christmas gift for our adult daughter.  It was on her wish list.  We are unable to give an honest evaluation since we aren't the ones using it.  Purchase process was easy and very quick and the lens arrived safely and well packed.  The evaluation above reflects the purchase process and not the lens itself!

Christmas Gift

I have been flirting with the idea of dropping a few grand on a pro tele lens in the 300 to 400 mm range.  My fear was/is that I would not use the beast enough to justify the amount spent.  This lens was my fall back position to test my resolve to bet my retirement on a pro lens.

To be sure it is a bottom shelf plastic lens that would be vulnerable with rough use.  The absence of VR necessitates a tripod, and f4.5 isn't going to win any races and low light environments are not its forte.

That said the photos have been sharp and the fun factor is high.  For occasional use I think this is a very practical  choice.  If I find I am shooting a bunch at extended ranges I will undoubtedly upgrade.  If I only use it on rare circumstances it will stay in my bag for a long time.

Inexpensive Lens purchased to test my resolve to spend a few grand on a pro lens.

The clarity of the lens is stunning. This lens spends most of it's time on my little V2, it's as good as any of the full frame prime big lenses I have owned. Incredible reach, and it's sharp wide open.

The clarity of the lens is stunning

Very light and takes great pictures. I like the 67mm filter size, I can use one polarizer for 2 lenses

Great lens

Excellent service and a quality product   

Excellent lens for the price. Highly recommend Adorama and their products...

Excellent service and product

Otima lente com excelente custo beneficio, foco muito rápido, o detalhe e que só funciona nas cameras com motor de foco tipo: d90, d50, d70, d80, d7000...

Otimo produto

Utilizo ela numa D3200, então as minhas opiniões são em cima dessa configuração: como ela não tem motor de foco, tenho que usar com foco manual, o que é um pouco mais trabalhoso que o normal, mas como sou da velha guarda, isso não me incomoda muito. A falta do VR também não é um problema difícil de lidar. ( tripé ou alta velocidade ajudam ) Ela é uma lente escura, principalmente em 300mm, mas isso não quer dizer que não há solução, o uso do tripé combinado com ISO alta, resolve desde que não se incomode muito com o granulado. fotografar pássaros com ela é um desafio, já que os melhores momentos são ao nascer ou entardecer quando não há muita luz, e eles não param quietos, porém gratificante. objetos rápidos também precisam de muita atenção e pericia. já em condições de muita luz ela funciona muito bem. ou seja se for fazer paisagem ou arquitetura a luz do dia, ela é a sua lente, embora obviamente ( nessa faixa de preço ) há uma distorção leve da lente. tem uns dois anos que considero essa compra, a promoção deste site me animou, e não me arrependo, ela expandiu minhas possibilidades a um custo baixo. já que, como a minha câmera e "cropada" , ela vira quase uma 450 mm

Expande possibilidades com baixo custo

Olá, Tenho uma Nikon D5200, essa lente pode ser usada nessa Câmera?

Tenho Interesso.

I have never own NIKKOR Lenses , and im surprise with most results , is quite sharp  and the price is right .
 Thanks Adorama for your help.

Good Equipment !

over all it is a good lens for normal life. also it is from a old lens, so it is is not sharp and focus soft, for example, it is not as sharp as 18 - 55 mm AF-S lens. But for the price it is an option for beginner and hobbyist to get a telephoto zoom lens.It is bot good and bad at all.

a goo price fort an old lens

Good everything

Ótimo produto!! Vale muito a pena, ótimo custo benefício, o fato dela não possuir o VR não me atrapalha pois uso mais em ambiente externo e claro, então normalmente fotógrafo com velocidade mais alta. É uma lente muito nítida!!!

Ótima lente!!

My review title basically says it all.  This lens brings power associated with larger DSLR lenses to the mirror-less Nikon1 world.  Fast autofocus and good vibration control.  Can't wait to get more use with it this Summer.

Powerful, lightweight & compact

I bought this len in 2013, still use it with my D80...taken excellent boxing photos indoors and outdoor especially during day light, very clear. It has no VR and autofocus does work with D80 so that a plus. I just bought the D7200 with two lens deal but I am also keeping this len for back up. You can really beat the price for the value of photos.
