Are you sure? 70-300 is not capable of f2.8. Widest aperture is only f4.5

Back to the threadstarter's question.

If you don't mind the slow AF of the 55-300 VR and have no plans in upgrading to FX then it boils down to your budget.

If more than 20K, get the 70-300 VR
If below 15K, get the 55-300 VR
If below 9K, get the 70-300 non VR

I've got the 55-300 VR and I find it to be bang for the buck. Hinay lang gyud mo-AF.

is it as slow as the kit lens or slower? nice pics sir, are those unedited?

[b00rdz]

Ang speed per se is more or less the same as the kit lens but in actual mas hinay giyud kay mas wider ang focal length range sa 55-300mm.

The pics are slightly sharpened using Nikon's OEM NX View software.
