Nikon AF-S Nikkor 300mm f/2.8D VR

 

It is not only top end cameras that are becoming more sophisticated as we work our way into the third millennium, but the lenses that fit on them too. This professional offering from Nikon is one such example offering not only things like internal...

Almost instant, accurate and silent autofocus.; High optical performance.; Handy memory recall.; Good build quality

Number of buttons and switches (easily learnt)

The advanced sophistication of this lens, with the whole thing being peppered with buttons, knobs and switches, belies the ease with which it can be used once the basic concept of how the lens works is overcome. The speed with which it does work has to...

Nikon AF-S Nikkor 300mm F/2.8 ED VRII – Review

 

Many will find the very idea of a lens costing well into five figures outlandish, but professionals exist on a different plane to even serious amateurs. The more specialised the photographer, the more specialised the gear in their bag. A 300mm fixed...

Awesome overall performance ; Ultra-sharp ; Build quality

Size and weight ; Knee-wobbling price ; No front protective filter

A lens this big and expensive has to be special and Nikon’s new 300mm f/2.8 has no problems whatsoever justifying its existence. While few of us will have the finances or a genuine requirement for this lens, those who do will find it to be superlative...

Nikon 300mm f/4D ED-IF AF-S Nikkor review by ifxmnfly

 

I've had mine on my camera with a Nikon 1.4 TC (for a 420 mm total) for the best part of a year. (There is no optical penalty with this TC - Lens combo!) It is an absolute joy for birding - although 2.8 would be a lot nicer - and way more expensive. ...

Sharp, quick and quiet

Really needs a tripod for the sharpest shots ... but the foot is the weak link

Nikon 300mm f/4D ED-IF AF-S Nikkor review by mbunge

 

I've had this lens for six years. I use it for high school football and some wildlife shooting. In terms of sharp images and quick focusing, it consistently beats my Nikon 70-200 f2.8 VR. I shoot digital, so this lens is the equivalent of a 450mm lens;...

Very sharp images

Nikon 300mm f/4D ED-IF AF-S Nikkor review by keegan

 

This is a killer deal for a 300mm prime. I have had this lens for two years and love it. Originally it was my solution to not being able to afford the 2.8 glass, but since its size has really grown on me. It is so small and portable, but just as...

Amazingly sharp

Not many, could be brighter
