Will this fit the nikon d3300
Yes.
D780
I have the same setup a d5500 and this lens. It's great for a walk around setup for birds and wildlife. Light weight and fast quiet focus are really a plus. Thanks for review.
I bought the gray market version of this lens for a D7100 but also use it on my D600 (the D600 switches to crop mode, yes, APC but better resolution) and I have been very happy with it.
No, it is not 70-200 quality, but also it is 1/7th to 1/10th the price, and if you practice your shots you can get very sharp shots with it. I also use it for video, even at 300mm, for wildlife. Highly recommended for amateur/enthusiast/semi-pros.
Hi, Is this good to bird photography ?
@@RamSaun Yes, it is; with a crop camera (like the 5600) you will be at a range of 105 to 450, and it is sharp. I have a pretty good shot of a hummingbird with it. Also it is very light, easy to carry; I now also have the 200-500, great, also very heavy to carry.
But I try to use it on nikon full frame 800e but it doesn't work
I love this lens because of the performance not the quality. It is unbelievably fast, accurate, sharp, within its limitations. Nothing else for this price even comes close. I'm using it on my D3400. If I wanted to pay for a metal mount and all of the extras I would have paid out the big bucks for it. I'll take it up against a $2000 dollar telephoto any day of the week and twice on Sunday. Call me a liar.
BigBadWolfe None Just buy a 70-300mm vr G fx . 300$ used , mint condition
I got this one brand new for $200
hi man can you help me with this camera please?
On good lighting conditions this lens easily rivals the more expensive ones
Does it support nikon d3500
Great review. I purchased this lens about a month ago with a D7500 and I've been very happy the results. Fantastic image quality and it's easy to bring along due to its light weight.
Thank you, image quality really is excellent regardless of price, I imagine that it performs even better on D7500.
yeessssss baby. i bought also
Hi, Is this good to bird photography ? Will this work with Nikon d5200 ?
I bought an open box version of this lens when I got my D500. It has served well for a year; the plan has always been to go with a 70-200mm f/2.8 and I just acquired a new Tamron G2 model of that size, so I would keep the 70-300mm as a back-up, and in the instances of needing slightly longer focal length than the Tamron. Images over the past year with the Nikon have been very good; it is a good lens, though I agree, the plastic construction and lack of seals may prove a limitation over time in the field.
Don West yea in better light condition I think it can match 90% performance of 2.8 , so it’s a keeper really
Had this lens for about an year and it still creates exceptional images. My only issue is the plastic mount and the build quality.
Cryptic Wintermoon with its price , I’d quite happy that all value is put into optics and focus , so I’m happy really, just have to be extra careful that’s all
Does the auto focus motor works with D3300?
Soham Saha I’ve got a d3300 and I did not buy this lens. I paid for the 18-300 3.5-6.3. Brilliant walk around lens for travel. I’ve used it for motorsport and air shows
Hi, Is this good to bird photography ?
For the price this is the best tele zoom ever!
i love this comment i love this tele
I think tamron 70 300 vc usd is better.
@@denisvyrobik4692 if I'm not wrong this Af-P focus much faster and quieter
vr with this lens is amazing, get very sharp shots at 10/1000 with still subjects at 300mm
I have it on my D7200 and works like a dream and I can carry it easily the whole day too...:-]
what lenses would you recommend for the d7200
Hello I have a question about this lens, when I zoom around when it reaches 200 mm it sounds through the lens one click as if it finds something. I'm not sure it was from the beginning, but I think not. However, there is no malfunction the lens is fully functional. Has anyone noticed it? Also note that the lens has not fallen under me because I look after him too much.
This lens is super good for how much it costs.
Get yourself a pinhole lens, it is free. So it must be excellent.
Brilliant lens. Using this for Birding. Using it with the D7200. 👍👍👍
man the look on that cat at 4:21 its like i'm eat your soul human, dang it its the most evil look i have ever seen
Hi guys I bought a Nikon d7100. Is the Nikon 70-300 mm VR f/4.5-6.3 DX ED compatible with my camera. I thought so but just to be sure! Thanks.
Is this lens compatible with Nikon d5200 dslr
Thinkin I had to sell my D5500 because of debts breaks my heart... I can't wait to make an amazing lens to camera combo again !
Nice! Good quick introduction to this lens. Glad that Nikon is making lenses where the AF in liveview is getting better.
Thank you, work in liveview is probably Nikon's biggest weakness, they really need to improve at that, AF-P lenses are much better in this regard.
Thank you for watching!
I have exactly this lens, and sometimes it disapoints me. It has problems with focusing, so usually I must switch into manual focus. Even then I have no guarantee It wil create sharp image with VR. The second thing, it's dark with this F4,5 and 58mm wide front.
Does it fit with D90
after 3 years of intensive use the mount sanded off and the lens wiggles slightly
I have a Nikon D3400 with the latest firmware but there is no option to switch vr on and off in the menu. Is this because I haven't attached a vr lens to it yet? Will the option appear once I do?
I'm asking because I have just ordered this lens and I am hoping that vr will not be on 100% of the time.
Many thanks 😊👍🏾
does it work on the Nikon D7000? i saw a table that says it is not compatible as it is an AF-P lens but i dont understand what the problem is. if i use manual focus then its fine right? whast wrong?
Just buy the AF-S version.
Will both AF- S and AF-P compatible with its autofocus with NIKOND5600?
How do you perfectly manual focus to infinity for astrophotography ? I'm unable to hit the sweet spot because stars are not bright enough to manually focus correctly since the focus ring keeps rotating
Buy a bright torch...throw the beam on a distant tree..focus lock..turn off the torch..u are done
in Manual, one should be able to turn focus ring to infinite and focus lock?
is it a wide lens - do you recommend using it for film or video? I wanted it to be my travel lens because my Canon is so heavy - but I will be doing video --
I don't recommend Nikon DSLR system for video at all. It is probably the worst choice on the market.
I can't focus anything with that lens. Do you have any idea why. I'm shooting with a D3200 thnxs
D3200 needs AF-S lens
Thanks
@@garrymiller in d5200 dont have autofocus?
Do you think it will work well with my D5300 for Wildlife photography ? (Safari)
Yes bro it is very good for d5300 😁
Apex Gaming thank you
Hey! Did you purchase it? How is it working now? I also wanna use it for wildlife.
@@yq2851 works well for the price i paid for it . I would buy it again
Can the D5200 run this lens?
Sir which lens hood will be fixed for it , is the hb-82 lens hood is compatible with this lens
I am wondering... d3500 + 70-300 for landscape for 490$, hm.
How can I fix it it's still blurred when connected to my camera
Is this compatible for a D5000? Was told that auto focus wouldnt work with the d5000
I've a D3300, and autocus is not working for this lens. My firmware version is C1.02 and L2.009. Could you guide, please ?
Having the same problem on a d3200
Will this lens suits up with Nikon D3300
Just the info I was looking for (white box and more). Thanks.
Today I bought this lens , at very good price
I borrowed one of these bad boys from a friend, and I have a Nikon D3600. The lens has no switch to change from AF to MF and it wont autofocus no matter what. Has someone encounter the same type of issue?
Will this lens work properly on Nikon d300s camera ?
Guys, do you recommend buying it on the e-bay? The version without the VR is much cheaper, but I would like the one with the VR, and it is up to 200 usd difference...
No. Look for another seller.
sir, which is the best choice and what should buy a professional photographer canon 80d vs nikon 7500. plz make a video on this model plz plz plz plz plz i am in so dalima
I don't recommend either, mirrorless camera such as Sony A6400 / A6300 is better choice.
Great Video! Does this lens support D7200? Would it still work the same?
Just update your camera firmware if you haven't. I have an AF-P 18-55 DX on my D7100, and it works flawlessly. I know it's not a 70-300, but it's AF-P. Only the D7100 onwards can support AF-P lens.
Does this lens support D7000?
Just dropped mine :( I forgot that it wasn't screwed onto my D7500 properly, picked up the camera, and plop it fell.
Front UV filter cracked, had to clean all the glass shards off the front element, now there's some unexplained glass pieces inside the lens, zoom action isnt 100% smooth anymore...
BUT IT STILL WORKS! somehow. I can't discern a difference in the IQ it gives me. And the VR still locks down the image in the viewfinder like it used to.
I'm sorry to hear that.
Would this fit a Nikon d5200
Yes is f mount
Hi can this lens fit to a d5100?
What do you think about the 18-140mm lens?
I have never used it.
How many times is this zoomed in (for example: 25x optical zoom) for 70-300mm
300/70=4.28 so 4.28x zoom.
which I turn on - off the VR on D5200?
Vasilis Karfis i don’t think u can on d5200
No, you can't turn it off on the D5200 but don't let that stop you getting one.
I have this camera/lens combo; I was hoping for more reach. Do you know if the Tamron 18-400mm F/3.5-6.3 DI-II VC HLD would provide better reach than cropping the Nikon 70-300mm lens?
Well, it is 400mm at the long end, so it obviously provides more reach.
@@TheHybridShooter Yes, I know it has more reach, but I've read the Tamron is less sharp and so cropping the 300mm Nikon in the end may actually give a better result than the 400mm; didn't know if you've ever tried that Tamron lens
Unfortunately, I have never tried Tamron 18-400, so I can't help you with that.
Where does it stand in comparision with AF-S 18-140 in 2022?
Completely different types of lenses. Both outdated, much like to whole Nikon DLSR system.
Do you still own the Nikon D5500 and Nikon D5600 and the DX 70-300
No, I have sold both many years ago.
hii…this setup can use for plane spotting?
You mention a "huge difference in comparrison to old AF-S lenses".
After upgrading from a D3100 body, I use my old AF-S 70-300 VR and really struggle with focussing on my D5500. Often the camera will refuse to take the shot at all.
Is the 70-300 AF-P going to be my answer?
As a side note, the AF-S still focusses well on the D3100 body.
Thanks for the video. :-)
Yes, AF-P is completely different league compared to older AF-S lenses.
i am looking at getting this lens for my D5500 (to replace my 55-200mmVR) and will be used mostly for bird photography... how is it at the long end? for now this is what i can only afford... and i am failry new to this hobby.
It is very good, the sharpness is excellent for the price.
I use a Nikon D3500 camera. This lenses Nikon AF-P DX Nikkor 70-
300 mm f/4.5-6.3G ED VR are working to mu camera? And tell me plese, anyone , did you guys used this lenses for deep sky objects or astrophotography??
Please answer!
Am I the only one who thinks this lens is "crap"? I mean, I have certainly taken good shots (keepers) but the huge majority of photos taken with this lens are throwaways. The chromematic aberrations are HUGE and sometimes can't even be fixed in LR. Also, the image quality is horrible at 300mm, so soft that it looks out of focus when zoomed at 1x. BTW, this is with VR on (in camera)
Hi! I find this lens bad too. Did you use Tamron 70-300 usd?
@@juri_mjatlin no, I still have this lens gathering dust because nobody wants to buy it.
I've been using the Tamron 100-400 which is great
Thanks for the valuable information :)
M currently using d3300 n planning to buy a telephoto lens , I checked af-p 70-300 and af-s 55-300 , can u please suggest which would be better option ?
You're welcome, I definitely recommend AF-P 70-300mm instead of AF-S 55-300mm.
@@TheHybridShooter 70-300 is better
70-300 both optics and focus are way better, and u need better focus since u would be trying some wildlife photography with this anyways
hello sir this lens fit d7200 nikon please me known
Low budget Tamron 70-300 Best lens ever
Not really.
@@TheHybridShooter yeah really I'm using tamron lens picture quality very very good
It may be very good but not the best.
@@TheHybridShooter what is the best for u
Does this lens work well on the 3500?
yes

Thank you, I appreciate your subscription.
I have nikon D610 just wonder if this lens fit to my camera?
No, it is APS-C lens. D610 is full frame.
Dear friend.. Thanks for your great video.
▪ Question 🙋🏻♂️. I'm a Birdwatcher.. So because of pandemia and Budget. I bought a NIKON D5,000.. (old one but still works) Do you recommend this lens for my Old Nikon 📸..? Appreciate it.. 😇
Had u bought any lens
@@amitkrupal1234 Hi... yes the 55-300 AF-S.. 😇 ✌🏼
What’s are the uses of these lens ?
Is this compatible to d5300 sir?
is the 300mm real? have you compared it with a lens that you are sure it's real 300mm zoom? I'm asking you this because tamron, to mention one, mm most of the times are never real. thank you
I unfortunately haven't compared it to any other lens, because this is at the moment the only 300mm lens that I have for Nikon, sorry about that.
Why did you enter the Nikon system even though you already have Panasonic and Sony cameras? Just curious to know, what made you choose exactly these three brands and how do they complement each other?
I have had Nikon long before Panasonic and Sony and I still keep it because there are some great cheap lenses like 40mm F2.8 Macro that not available for Sony which is my primary camera and Panasonic G85 is my secondary camera, because I need two cameras for production purposes, but I will upgrade to G9 in January.
Wow! That was a fast reply. Thanks for the info. Do you think it's still worth to get the G80 or should I wait for the G90? Looking forward to watch your G9 videos. I only expect the best quality from you.
I unfortunately don't know anything about what, when or even if G90 / G95 will be, so I can't answers that, you have to sacrifice some futures with every camera on the market, for some shooters G85 could still be a very good compromise.
Here's a thought piece for you, Adrian: ALL of the manufacturers' APS-C systems have a major problem -- the rather egregious lack of a sufficient range of truly up-to-date native lenses of high image quality (by contemporary, competitive standards), and designed to suitable scale factors and focal lengths for, say, a Sony-sized mirrorless body or a sub-17 ounce DSLR.
Fuji, arguably, might get a pass there (apart from a notable gap or two); but X-trans is a flawed solution [in search of a problem] for landscape shooters like me; and Fuji has no FF or "dual format use" upgrade path out of APS-C, except for its limited range, price-y [and not really] "medium format" offerings.
Therefore, like our host here, I had no choice for rounding out my compact/EDC, APS-C kit (**complementing** FF Sony + Nikon) but to amalgamate 3 manufacturer's systems (!) to get the **primes-centric IQ** I want in a small form factor, at a minimum practical weight -- therefore, Canon M5 (7-ounces: 11-22mm IS STM; circa 3+ ounces: 22mm/f.2.0; and 4.4 ounces: 28mm/3.5 IS STM macro -- indispensable, under-appreciated, and uniquely tiny) w/ compact EF STM & IS USM primes supplementation... Sony A5000/LCDVF (preferred for better low ISO IQ/rendering and left eye shooting compatibility w/ adapted lenses in manual focus to the A6000) -- for "dual use" of lenses w/ Sony A7-series FF... and, finally, Nikon D3400 for its generally un-noticed tweaks to basic IQ & rendering to near state-of-the-art for APS-C and compatibility with the unique (and unequalled at anywhere near its 14.7 ounce carry weight) AF-P(E) 70-300mm DX zoom on test here. Prime lenses + two **uniquely** featherweight & capable zooms for super wide and long telephoto FL's: No other way to get there, Adrian, without compromising BOTH image quality and go-anywhere lens kit tote-ability simultaneously.
All my carry accessory options are highly modular, efficient, & flexible, so it's a "horses for courses" thing for me. Very modular and flexible, by design. No slow, IQ-compromised "walkaround" zooms for me either, thanks; unless fairly brutal environmental conditions preclude practical lens changes. With two small bodies and the right clip/holster system, you can always be ready to shoot, with the effort of a little forethought.
4K video is an entirely separate matter, and [to editorialize a moment] I have no sympathy for fanboy-gearhead type arguments for "gotta have it" 4K that effectively denigrate the primacy and value of stills photography... showing off a kind of ignorant incomprehension or just plain disdain for 160+ years worth of still relevant, enduring art. Though, of course, 4K or plain vanilla Canon 1080P video are fine in their own place(s). For me personally, Canon Dual Pixel AF in conjunction with Canon's STM type lenses PRESENTLY best suits my main real world video & computer power/file storage capacity requirements in a Vlogging scale and offers an easy-to-use, no specialized expertise needed, minimally hunting AF for video w/ pretty high IQ, normal compact primes... which I don't believe a practical Sony video rig could match on that score.
Anyway, I hope a few of the ideas here from my own experience might give you some additional insight, Adrian, in answer to your courteous and well posed question. I'm a retired pro, BTW; so no kids, cats, pranks, etc., as subjects... and I've been 'around the block' enough times to know that no one but a relative generally wants to see sports and "action" photos these days not shot by pro specialists with real pro rigs unless it's Go Pro or drone footage... which might further explain my priorities these days.
Does this lens support D3500?

Which lens is qualitatively better to use on D3300 ? 70-300mm VR or 50mm 1.4G?
Those are completely different lenses, 50mm F1.4 is much better optically, since it is a prime lens.

Nothing show in this video is fake, so probably not.
Is this still available with d7200???
Is this EF mount lens or RF??
Neither, it is for Nikon.
I have just purchased the lens, on a Black Friday deal. I had not read reviews of the lens. The term Kit Set carries with it the "cheap" monika. and can sometimes cloud judgement
I have the D 5600
Well the AF was very sharp the quality of imagery really surprised me. I did get a bit of Aboration in one image. But Id say of all the images I took I didn't have to fight as hard on getting the right sharpness as I usually would. Pleasantly surprised!
I have nikon d3300. It will work with that?🤔
Yes.

Surprisingly found many videos which says Tamron is out performing the Nikkor version in this lens segment.. especially the VC in Tamron over VR in Nikkor is much superior.. know what? Nikkor reduced its price and Tamron increased its price.. as of today both Nikkor and Tamron cost is same.!!!!

sir which is the best for photography n videography Nikon d5600 n canon 200d please answer me i soo confused which is the best for me reply me
Sony A6000 / A6300 is actually the best IMO at the moment for photography and filmmaking. Out those two Nikon is better for photography and Canon for video.
+The Hybrid Shooter but sir how is it Nikon d5600 for videography can i purchase this camera how is it for me??
Nikon D5500 is not good for video, the autofocus is unusable, and shooting video is very difficult.

Nikon D5500 and D5600 is basically the same camera.
