Quote: Not really a preview, since it's just a few images I took with both lenses on a walk today, and other than "regular" sample images, these are slightly edited and/or cropped.
Still: having fun with both lenses... and working on their reviews
P.S.: the AF-P 70-300 VR is the new FX lens, not the DX one.
At first I thought : Ah, that nice little cheap DX zoom...till I read FX....
..The FX version is expensive, (I'm finding it around 800 + euros.. base price)..........this focal length zoom is pretty uninteresting on FF with it's limited brightness.....I can't see the attraction, when you can get a S/H Nikor 70-200mm F2.8 for that!
........ the DX version is for peanuts (€200) and has a more useful FL giving some semblance of reach.
Apparently it's a good sharp lens with ultra fast AF.
Perhaps while your AF-P "ing" a quick test of the AF-P 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 VR as Nikon's biggest selling lens might be interesting!
BTW. Love the image of the geyzer...geezer!
