Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Nikon 70-300mm f/4-5.6G AF Nikkor SLR Camera Lens
Customer Review: Stunning lens on my D700
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this lens about 2 years ago and have been using it on my D200. It's sharp. It's light. It's a lens that, if I drop it, I'll live. But the comments that it is rather slow in dim light are fair, and I've been saving for the 70-200 2.8 zoom. Rather than replace the lens, though, I fell in love with the D700. That CAMERA is so fast and so good at high ISO's -- crystal clear at 1600 -- it's like the lens just got 4 stops faster! Suddenly, the 5.6 f/stop (at the long end) is the equivalent of 2.8. At the short end, the 4.0 becomes a mythical 1.0! It's AMAZING. I just upgraded all my lenses similarly. On the D700, this is a fabulous lens. It's fast glass! It's sharp. It's light. True, it still does not focus as snappy quick as an AFS lens, but then, it's many hundreds of dollars cheaper! And it's not a VR, but I'm shooting 4 stops faster as it is! (VR lets you use slower shutter speeds, but doesn't hold your subject still; higher ISO's give you the faster shutter speed.) It really is an amazing bargain lens. If you're on a lower model Nikon camera, you won't be using it inside. If you can spring for the D700 or D3, it's hard to argue that the money would have been better spent on the wonderful 2.8 series of lenses.
