  1. Orangehead –

    I bought this lens for my father who recently got into photography. He’s happy with the pictures.

  2. Huse –

    This is a great lens, especially for wildlife photography. It is pretty heavy, so it makes it a little more difficult to use handheld without a monopod or tripod. However, the VR really helps out, and I was able to shoot at about 1/50 without any loss of quality. I used it with my D850 and I loved the results.

  3. ProductDude –

    This lens opened up a whole new world of shots for me. Quality is great. Well worth the investment.

  4. Kristen –

    Fantastic lens! I have been using mine mostly when I go to IndyCar races. You won’t be disappointed. It seems like it would be heavy, but the weight didn’t bother me (considering it has a handle). Worth the money!

  5. Danny –

    One of the best lens.I am.bird watchers and used Nikon camera,I am so happy with this lens.

  6. MarieV –

    Love this lens! It’s heavier than expected but nothing a monopod or tripod can’t assist with!

  7. Chris –

    Used it in Alaska Worked Great got some good pictures

  8. ELBIRDOS –

    Great super telephoto lens that pairs well with my Nikon D850 camera. It is heavy but still can be hand held with practice.

  9. PhotoBug –

    For wildlife photos at this price point you can’t go wrong. The images are fantastic. I’ve used this lens with a D5600, D500 and a D850. It does not disappoint!

  10. Mary –

    Excellent lens- takes clear sharp photos – heavy to carry on long hikes

  11. KaptKirk –

    Love my lens trouble free and works awesome now to upgrade my camera !

  12. Lmac –

    Was originally worried about the f 5.6, but the lens has performed great with me being able to be further away and still get good shots…

  13. BravoCharlie –

    This is a great lens. I would have given it 5 stars except it appeared to be opened. I notice that a lot of my Best Buy purchases have seals cut. Someone opening up products – is it open box?

  14. Wtmfit –

    It is an amazing little lens. Glad that I got it when I did. I waited forever for it to return to the store.

  15. Leia –

    Considering the price this is one of the best wildlife lensesI for Nikon. Renders great color, contrast and sharpness.

  16. mikes –

    Great lens for sports photography and nature photography.

  17. Nishant –

    I have owned this lens for a couple of years now. Mostly do bird photography as a hobby and this lens has helped me take a few really good pics. Quick to focus and pictures are excellent specially for small birds.

  18. Squeakyclean20 –

    I really like the quality of my photos. Only drawback is this is a heavy lens. For me the handle has been a great help

  19. EdwardF –

    Great lens, working perfectly to capture our kids baseball and softball games.

  20. Joesquid –

    I have only used the lens a couple times since purchasing it. I am including a cropped only copy of my first moon shot. I am a very experienced photographer in auto…I am just learning the manual aspects of photography.

  21. Mike –

    Wait almost two weeks to get this lens. When I finally received it, it was damaged. Now wait for a new one to be shipped to me.

  22. Waterpig –

    All around versatility a must have for wildlife photography! Very reasonable price for the quality of the lens and a tremendous amount of functional adjustments !

  23. RobertH –

    I did a lot of research on this Lens before buying it, and I’m glad I pulled the trigger on it.
    The Image Quality is very good and sharp especially in the central areas.
    I think the Lens is well made, about the same quality as the Nikon 80-400mm.
    For what your getting I feel the price is fantastic, this Lens has upgraded my Bird and Wildlife Images a lot.
    This Lens is a bit of a Beast, it’s large and it’s heavy. If you are going to use it all day put it on a Tripod.

  24. lonmunu –

    I got this on sale which made it better. Still testing it out but totally happy so far.

  25. PhotogOH –

    So far so good. I got pictures with less noise with the VR off. All pictures turned out better than those shot with the Nikon 80-400, which is what I was hoping for. I’m not sure how the uploaded picture will look. It is really crisp on my large computer monitor. But I had to downsize the image in order to upload it for this review.

  26. JohnF –

    Awesomeness with a workout so great for the arms you’ll quick the gym. Superbly crafted !

  27. LorleeaS –

    I have only had the chance to use the lens twice as it is January in Iowa and not much out there to photograph. I did get a couple nice eagle shots though. Looking forward to using it more.

  28. Bobby –

    Wasn’t sure about how lens would work on pictures I wanted to shot, but worked out great, pictures were clear and sharp.

  29. RhondaD –

    My husband has one and I had pretty much confiscated it for the last year. I finally bought my own! This is an excellent lens! Slightly heavy, but worth it!

  30. EdHarley1 –

    Works great for zooming in long distance nature shots.

  31. NelsonH –

    Very happily happy with the purchase of this items at Best Buy store
    Really recommend if you are interested in buying Nikon lens

  32. Swami –

  33. BeverlyM –

    LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  34. Sandman –

    This lenses is very easy to setup and use. The functions work very well and the photos come out great.

  35. Duane –

    Bought this for my wife for sports photography…she loves it!!

  36. Barb –

    I love the lens and got an awesome deal. Everyone at the store was super helpful.

  37. BethanyK –

    I love this lens. It works great with my mirrorless after I got the adapter.

  38. RyanB –

    Great lens very good quality pictures it’s perfect for anyone wanting to upgrade and not break the bank

  39. Cathy –

    This is a great lens! Use it with 1×4 extender on a Nikon Z7 11 camera for nature photography.

  40. kodiakswildside –

    I LOVE this lens!!!! I have purchased THREE over the years and m now being forced to buy my 4th!!!! I run a kayaking/wildlife photography business in Alaska… My ONLY complaint about this lens is tht the mechanism that allows it to zoom in ad out eventually ALWAYS GETS STUCK… so you may end up with it being stuck on 200… or like the one I most recently purchased 6 months ago… is now stuck between 400 and 500. My lst one got stuck on 200… so NOW I am sending both off to hopefully be repaired… and being that I cannot go without this lens… I am forced to buy yet another! (Maybe they have a timed auto destruct on this lens button that allows it to zoom in and out? …so you HAVE TO KEEP BUYING THEM maybe? 🙂 Either way… REAT LENS… “BUT”… 🙂 I wish they did not even HAVE that little toggle lock button… because it is clearly “defective.”

  41. Z4Dan –

    I love this thing! Able to take pictures of birds in flight and of the moon as well that turn out sharp.

  42. Cmuzoh –

    Nice bokeh on bird photography. A bit on heavy side but nice and firm grip. Using it with a D750. Good autofocus.

  43. JohnB –

    This was gotten to complete the range of lens selection. It is heavy and you will need a tripod. But the image quality is good the magnification is surprising.

  44. Jeanette –

    Very good lens. I recommend it a lot. Very nice salesperson at the store

  45. Cellmar –

    Great telephoto lens. Use for sporting events outdoors. Great compression and still provides great bokah at 5.6. Perfer this over the other brands due to the constant aperture throughout the distance. Currently shoot mostly sons soccer games. Best during daylight, not as good as night shots or indoors. Use a 2.8 lens for that. Also can be a little tough with action up close. Currently use a D4s and D750 with this lens and works great. Can be heavy but I use on a monopod which works great.

  46. Martin57 –

    Love this lense
    Nikon did a great job with the glass
    And works well with my camera

  47. Jackie –

    Excellent quality lens for the money. I love this lens! It does a really good job for wildlife and birds in flight but is a little on the heavy side. You need strong arms or a good tripod with it. Made well. Would recommend.

  48. Camerauser –

    Wonderful- Adaptable to both my old and new Nikon cameras. Does not work well for pictures that are close. Heavy lens. Needed to practice using it prior to actually using it.

  49. JJacob –

    Great lens sharp enough for my amateur photography, not so heavy worked well with d500.

  50. ThomasP –

    It’s the first large zoom lens I’ve purchased and love it, at 500mm with VR on you get a clear and sharp without a tripod.
