Don’t let the price fool you I have seen this lens for sometime, and based on the price, I dismissed it. However, after repeatedly seeing good reviews in a certain British Nikon photo magazine, and also after seeing Brian Petersonâs latest edition of his âCreative Photographyâ book where he uses this lens a lot on a high res D800 series Nikon, I rethought this price equals quality mindset.I bought this lens and went out to explore a focal length range that I almost never use, basically topping out at the 120mm setting on my zoom, or at 105mm on my primes. Wow! This lens is fun. I am now seeing in narrow angles, and extracting tiny elements out of the environment that I would have not have seen or just ignored. I paid 500 dollars for this (toy), and I have been out shooting so much now with a fresh perspective.I used this lens on my full frame camera with good results, but on my DX Nikon D7200, the extra reach is even more fun.

Great for Outdoor Photography! I am using this lens with a Full Frame Nikon D800. Using mostly primes with very wide apertures, I was hesitant to purchase a zoom lens that didn’t open as wide as I’d like. However, I needed something that was going to let me be a little more rugged and play as I was going to use this for animal rescue and wildlife photography, occasionally breaking it out for portraits! I am actually REALLY surprised by this lens. I was hesitant to purchase simply because photos in other reviews were less than sharp for my picky nature. In my opinion, to use this lens to it’s FULL potential you need to understand photography, the triangle of exposure, what you need to do in order to stabilize the lens and how much you can push it in the lighting you are in. All of this comes with practice and play, so don’t hesitate to buy this lens if you are not a professional, just understand you might have some learning curves ahead! (Which is great! YAY learning!) For the professionals out there, I do suggest…
