Hi,

I just picked up a "Nikon 55-200mm F/4-5.6G ED AF-S DX Nikkor Lens" last night. This weekend my wife and I are attending a Photo Nature Walk and I figured I better get a zoom lens quick. I picked this one up at BestBuy becasue I had some RewardZone points so I got it for a pretty good deal. (That's where I bought my D200 and my wife's D50.)

Anyway, my question is, with only 13 people out there in dpchallenge world have this lens, and only 1 pic was submitted using it, and I can't find any review on it, did anyone hear anything about it, good or bad?

The reason is probably because it is fairly new and because both the 70-300G & 70-300ed lenses are so popular. I have the Nikkor 70-210f4 my self. Only made for 18 months back in the late 80s, but IMO it̢۪s a keeper.

There's a review on photozone.de of this lens. The verdict wasn't too bad, considering it's not an expensive lens.

Thank you. I never saw that site before. I read the review and rushed home and got out the cameral and took a few. Here is one that shows colors. I am very happy with the lens so far. It's a little slow on the focusing and it gets really long when you are full zoom.



Let me know what you think.
