- Nikon 55-200mm DX Lens Review • Nikon 55-200mm DX Kit ... The Nikon 55-200mm Kit Lens is great for beginners who need Zoom capability or if you're a photographer on a budget.
While this is not professional glass if you know what you are doing you can still get great shots with it. The Nikon 55-200mm is a Zoom Lens with a variable Aperture, meaning you will have to adjust the setting depending on the zoom range if you're worried about your shots being consistent or that you may have some push pull with the settings within a flexible range.
While Fixed Aperture Lens are better overall they tend to be expensive. This will get you used to zoom shooting before you make that investment.

![Nikkor 55-200mm f/4-5.6 ED VR DX Lens Review [HD]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/QzDAR7b2qng/mqdefault.jpg)
I have been a photographer for some years now and this was the second that I added to my repertoire. The full length of its extension I never really got clear sharp images so I will put it at a 55 to 150 zoom. Now that being said this lens gave me some of the most amazing shots I could ever have taken at that time and I learned everything I could do with that lens in it and pressed some people that had better equipment than I did 10 more years of photography that I did. If you’re just starting out in photography I recommend buying it off of a budget. Learning as much as you can with this lens.
Roberto, everytime I have a question regarding a piece gear or technique, you have a video on it, that's why you're the man.
U DA MAN, ROBERTO! Thanks for this video, I got a this lens used in a pawn shop for $75 and jumped on it as a big brother to my 18-55 mm lens and have a great range of focal lengths! Again, thank youfor this information...keep up the great work!
I have just purchased the 55-200mm vr 2 and I have used it and it works well.
Thank you for always being informative
Merisa George Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the sound advice for beginners like me love your video.
So would you recommend using the nikon 55-200mm lens or the nikon 18-55mm lens?
I still have this lens as a left over before I traded in my Nikon D3200 for the Sony Alpha 6000. Would you recommend that I purchase an adapter to use this lens on my Sony mirrorless or should I get something else? I haven't used this lens much to know it's true worth. Also, I am a newbie at digital photography.
+lowKut I'd get a native lens or a sigma lens
Thanks for the prompt response. I have gotten the Sony 50mm F.18 (prime) and the 16-50mm retractable kit lens which came with the camera.
Would you recommend any other specific ones for an amature who is now starting to shoot?
Could u tell me difference between dx55-200 and 55-200vr?
Built in image stabilization called Vibration Reduction
Hey Roberto Blake how did u make the images of the shirts u made on your website? and great video
Shirts were done using Adobe Illustrator, other images were mostly photoshop like on my tutorials
I do have a question. I am new to photography. would this lens be OK to have a portrait photo shoot with. I want to take pictures of my daughters and girlfriend.
+Jesse Pedyfoot If you're a beginner it is a good practice lens and you can still get great shots out of it overall. For professional portraits and 85mm F/1.8 would be better, but you won't be able to zoom at all.
+Roberto Blake ok great. thanks
What's up Roberto first off I really enjoy your videos they're extremely informative and the knowledge you share is priceless second I'm brand new with all this but I do believe that it's(graphic design) an awesome thing to do for a living so I was hoping you might be able to discuss a couple ways to stay positive and motivated as a beginner
I'm assuming at one point you dealt with something like that when you first started
you may want to reference my video on dealing with depression as a graphic designer or my vlog on why running a creative business is hard.
Thank you I just checked them out
would this lense be sufficient for landscapes? I would like to get nice pics while I vacation
For that you need a wide angle lens typically.
+Roberto Blake what would you suggest?
Great video as a new Photographer I see this and am able to use my starter kit lenses for the proper situations. Hopefully I can go full time with my DSLR, lenses, and be able to get the Pop I want and edit to effect those pops. Keep up the great material. And do you have a video explaining how to use this specific lense if so that would be awesome.!
Reberto how can i become a graphics desighner
Christiaan Roux I have over 100 videos dedicated to helping you with that. It's not something that can be answered in a UA-cam comment.
I have small doubt which one is best out of these lenses Nikon 18-140vr or the 55-200mm vr ii or 55-200mm vr
+Naidu mspllimited the VR if you're not on a tripod all the time.
Great video. I had this lens when I first started slr photography. Sometimes I took some beautiful pictures. :)
it comes down to knowing how to shoot. what are you upgrading to?
Roberto Blake I bought 35 mm lens for Nikon! :) Fantastic lens
GotTakoyaki
Awesome, did my review help you on choosing that one? What lens are you looking at getting next and what type of shooting are you doing?
Roberto Blake I bought the lens before your video, btw loved that video too! I am thinking of getting landscape or zoom lens. Do you have any recommendations? :)
Check out the 11-16mm Tokina I reviewed. Also the 14-24mm Nikon is great if you have the budget. amzn.to/1CkaIr6
And what would be a great full frame camera in the nikon line up
Mind Blow I'd say Nikon D610 or D750 until the next series comes out. D610 is all the Camera you need and I'd say invest in that as a first full frame and wait 2 years for Nikon's new features and Expeed4 or Expeed5 Full Frame lineup.
Thank's!
Good advice !
lismoynan Mairead Thanks,
which lens is better 55-200mm or 55-250
What is the best all pupose len for weddings/ shooting in studio with models?
which cam do u recommend for beginner dslr user canon 700d or nikon d3300
really helpful! can you give me any advise about the Nikon 18-105 mm f 3.5-5.6?
For you're just getting started its a good lens to learn with but for serious paid shooting the 24-120 F/4 is the better lens
+Roberto Blake Im a recording artist looking to shoot my own videos looking for a great quality lens what do you perfer and i was a Variable aperture on it I've been looking at the
18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 and Ive been looking at the 18-140mm f/3.5/5.6G ED Vr -s Dx Nikkor zoom lens. and I Also done research on the 28-77mm f/2.8D ED IF Af-s zoom nikkor ...
will it support Autofocus on a Nikon D5300 ?? the non vr 55-200 which u are holding
Also another kit is the now 55 300.
Nice, I will look into that, VR?
Yup. It's around 300 bucks
***** That's actually a really good deal. I'm thinking of doing a video on Great Lenses under $500, I will add that to the list!
Great video! thanks.
which type of mount this lens i want to buy a converter beacause i have sony alpha 6000
Just bought this lens for $60, I consider it to be a bit of a bargain.
Hi, great video and thanks for the tips. I just bought a nikon D5300 as my first DSLR. I'm not a good or experienced photographer by any means, but am fed up with rubbish photos from other digital cameras claiming to do this and that; but they don't deliver; hence the new DSLR. I want to take mid range photos, say a couple of hundred metres of both the countryside and my kids. Could you please explain the difference between vibration reduction and image stabilisation; as Curry's state this lens has VR, but not image stabilisation. Also, could you please explain if this lens will fit the D5300 as i find the lens guide in the supplied booklet; a little difficult to follow - thanks in advance!
I can't decide which one to buy for my D3400. Which should I buy Nikon 70-300mm AF or Nikon 55-200mm AF-S VR-II? What focal length of this Nikon 55-200mm AF-S I will get on APS-C sensor.
Thanks!
If you will turn to a full frame camera go for the 70-300, even if it's bigger. If you are not planning to turn to a fx, go for the 55-200, lighter and smaller
The 55-200 on APS-C is a 82.5-300
Thanks for telling
Thanks for the nice review, well I still have a question in mind
whts the difference bet "' Nikon 55-200mm f/4-5.6G AF-S VR DX IF-ED Telephoto Zoom"
and "Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 55-200MM F/4-5.6G ED VR II" ?
I would appreciate if you could help !! :) :)
I'm on a budget and I'm purchasing and nikon d5500 which comes with a 18-55 mm kit lens. With other lens would you recommended. I need it for personal use, but I need something good. thanks!!
nikon 18-200mm vr its a better lens, all around lens, try to buy it off ebay $250-$280. its going to show the power of the camera
Thank you!!!
which one is the best 18-140mm or the 55-200mm Nikon lens
+Naidu mspllimited The 18-140 is the better range and newer glass, but the 55-200mm VR has the built in stabilization so it depends on how you are shooting and what you are shooting most.
+Roberto Blake thank you
Another thing, When you first start out on UA-cam do you think its bad to some what copy, more or less a person who your inspired by? but some one once told me good artist copy but great artist steal...
it depends on how much is copied. if it's super obvious, then it'll be a problem. if it's subtle, then it's fine. everyone copies, NOTHING is original, pure 100% originality doesn't even exist. copying is especially ok if your just beginning, but I advise you not to copy on purpose, but to use a influential figure for inspiration, only gradually will you develop your own unique style. but in order to develop that style, inspiration is crucial, even if it means copying here and there; especially when your just beginning. just be you, your voice will come :)
Thanks so much! :)
just curious, friend let me have a cannon 12mp as smart phones i think go up to 20 now lol. anyways im wondering what red flash does.
Kevfactor I'm not sure I understand your question...
Got this lens but the VR version. I went to a concert last weekend and it was my first time using it outside lol. I was planning on taking some photos but since is not that great in low light situation then I ended up video recording almost the whole concert. But I love this lens.
This is the video ua-cam.com/video/XR6Lhx2TxrA/v-deo.html
I use canon but nikon puts you up there world name NIKON
Once again always attacking the important issues. I don't think you have made a video about cameras specifically cameras for beginners. I would to hear some names, some tips or some suggestions on good cameras and any info on them or what they're good for. You seem so knowledgeable on all this so I thought I'd ask.
Once again, thank you!

DrawingMadeSimple grats!
all depends on the person behind the camera :D
