Other details include a super-integrated coating that minimizes ghosting and flare; a nine-blade rounded diaphragm for more natural out-of-focus highlights; and a focus switch that lets you easily switch between autofocus (A) and manual (M) modes. All Nikon lenses carry a five-year warranty.

    5 out of 5 stars so far so good   December 4, 2008
    I just received my 55-200 VR lens. I shot some test photos of my lens resolution charts. I can't tell the difference in sharpness or contrast comparing the new nikon 55-200 with my 13-70 nikon lens and my 80-400 nikon VR. Its light yet feels good and solid. The vibration reduction works like a dream. I can't wait to try this baby in the field. I just might call in sick and work and head for the mountains.



    5 out of 5 stars Nikon 55-200 MM Lens   November 25, 2008
    This is a compact, light weight lens. The range is perfect for general photography. Love it. The VR feature is perfect.


    5 out of 5 stars Right Ammo   November 25, 2008
    This is the right ammunition for amateurs. The VR is an enhancement to get the right picture whether you're still or mobile.


    5 out of 5 stars Great lens for the price   November 11, 2008
    THis lens is recommended for any amatuer photographer that is looking for a reliable, crisp fairly priced telephoto lens. You could get a cheaper one, but for a few bucks more, this Nikon is awesome!


    5 out of 5 stars Very Pleased!   November 1, 2008
    This lens is a great addition to my 18-55 kit lens. It is very sharp and lightweight. I took many photos with it in the past month and it was a joy to use. I was able to handhold at very slow shutter speeds with no sign of camera movement, even at 200mm. The only thing it was unable to cope with was autofocusing in heavy fog over water. It was a great bargain and I would buy another if I lost this one.
