Product Description

Product Description

Voted Best Entry-Level Lens 2007" at the TIPA awards, the AF-S DX VR Zoom-Nikkor 55-200mm f/4-5.6 lens will complete your photographic equipment so you can take photos just like a professional.  The AF-S DX VR Zoom-Nikkor lens works with digital SLR cameras to capture pictures that are rich in colour and true to life. Plus, it has an ED glass element to reduce chromatic aberrations.  Perfect for portrait photographers or for distant subjects, the AF-S DX VR Zoom-Nikkor lens includes a VR function that allows for speeds that are 3 times slower than normal. This system prevents blur - even in low lighting conditions - so you're guaranteed professional-quality snaps every time.  The AF-S DX VR Zoom-Nikkor 55-200mm lens is also equipped with an amazing focal range of 82.5-300mm (35mm equivalent), and a Silent Wave Motor for quick and quiet focusing. This lens can be used anywhere and at any time, whether it's at a wedding, on holiday, or on a hike in the countryside. In fact, with the AF-S DX VR Zoom-Nikkor lens, you'll always bring back your favourite memories."

5.0 out of 5 stars The obvious next step for Nikon D series SLR owners..., 24 Sep 2007
By nicjaytee (London) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: NIKON AF-S DX 4.0-5.6/55-200 VR OBJ. (Electronics)
If you own a Nikon D series SLR with its stock autofocus DX series zoom lens rated at 18-55mm new style (equivalent to 27-83mm old style), this is the obvious next step purchase. Rated at 55-200mm new style (83-300mm old style) it's small, light and really does cut out camera shake to allow genuine "point & shoot" at its higher focal lengths, giving you a "tripod-less", perfectly matched combination of two autofocus Nikkor lenses covering a full 18-200mm (27-300mm old style). Just perfect... and, for the price, stunningly good value.

5.0 out of 5 stars Impressive performance for the money, 19 Jun 2009
This review is from: NIKON AF-S DX 4.0-5.6/55-200 VR OBJ. (Electronics)
I am strictly an amateur photographer who likes to record my real passion, travel, so I bought this lens 2 months ago. I can't comment on long term durability, however I have just come back from 2 weeks travel in Alaska where it performed faultlessly. It was constantly swapped with the standard lens on my D40 which I used to shoot over 1100 images of landscapes and wildlife. The lens coped well with experimental shots of birds in full flight at maximum zoom and produced suprisingly sharp images. Bears, seals, moose and other more static subjects filled the viewfinder nicely and left me in no doubts that I had done the right thing to buy this in addition to the standard 18 - 55 lens (which is great for the huge landscapes and close shots of plant life). My only regret is that I can't afford the 300mm VR Nikon lens but for half the money this is a real bargain.
Lens changes were quick and the plastic lens mount won't be a problem if you are careful and patient with your equipment.
The bigger lens does add some weight to the camera but I found the VR system worked well to stabilise camera shake even on maximum zoom. The lens' AF worked well even on the camera's auto settings; I am still exploring the manual settings being a DSLR newbie. Overall I am really happy with the lens and would recommend it to other amateurs looking to extend their camera's (and their own) repertoire.

4.0 out of 5 stars Really nice lens - the VR function especially useful
Recently bought this lens to add to standard 18-55mm lens with Nikon D40 DSLR camera. Would recommend the VR function and also invest a few extra euro to get a tripod.

4.0 out of 5 stars evaluation of the latest purchase
The item arrived a bit later than expected due to a shipping mistake . Anyway it arrived in perfect condition . So the purchase was fully satisfactory.

4.0 out of 5 stars The only other lens you need
Let's face it, 55mm is not quite long enough for traditional portraiture, so a zoom telephoto is justified for a variety of photographic reasons. Read more

If you've bought a Nikon D40 or D60 where the auto-focusing motors are inbuilt into the lens body, then you probably got the 18-55mm kit lens. Read more
