I think it is better if you can save your money and buy a better lens. This lens is OK, but it’s takes a long time to focus. If you want to take a picture of an animal, by the time that this lens focuses the animal is already gone. The macro is not what I had expected!! You can do a better macro photography by buying a +10 magnifying filter which costs $30 and use it on an 18-55 lens that comes with Nikon D40x and D40.

I had read many ‘glowing’ reviews re: this lens…so I ordered it. I even ck’d out some photos people had sent in, esp the sports photos. I couldn’t believe the clarity! HOWEVER THIS WAS NOT MY EXPERIENCE. Firstly, no one person mention they ever used a tripod for the longer length. Some even mentioned the camera was ‘handheld’. Well I found I could not take NOT ONE decent shot over 200 mm and not have it out of focus. Certainly setting up a tripod each time is not practical unless you’re into nature photography. Thats why the pictures of sports interested me. So I sent it back and determined to stick w/ a max of 200 focal length. Seriously considering Sigma 18-200 but would like to come down in price. I applaud those that took shots at 250-300 mm but apparently thats not for me.

Well constructed. Sorry it didn’t work out for my Canon 350D. Nice macro.

wow great lens these lens are amazing [...]. great quality. but one thing… the motor inside is bound to brake. and i dont know if in the long run is gonna be a waste or not. i guess i will just not use auto focus with it so much. but that is my only concern. these lens have brough happyness in my life
