AF-S DX NIKKOR 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR (5.5x)
#3
I have it and I like it.

Build quality is, well, a bit cheap. (similar or a bit better than the 18-55VR)

Front lens rotates.

No AF A/M override.

But it is cheap and sharp and light weight and smaller compared to the AF-S 70-300VR, optical quality is good.



If you need a good zoom and don't want to spend a lot of money and like it light weight on a small DX like the D5000 or D3100 then this lens is for you.



Also, the 55-300 range is nice.

70 is very often already to long.

55 is a good start.



Personally, if you only compare the optical quality, and don't need FX, I don't need the 70-300VR and am much better of with the 55-300VR.

But others might have a different view.
