[QUOTE="Army_Guy, post: 54975, member: 9502"] [SIZE=3][FONT=arial]Anyone have any thoughts on the suitability of the [B]AF-S NIKKOR 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 ED VR for the D5100? I want to get into some indoor (of my son playing hockey) and outdoor (nature/landscape/son's soccer) telephoto shooting. From what I've gathered, this lens will allow me to do all that and can virtually replace my existing and low-end 18-55mm lens. It's expensive but i like its versatility and its ability to follow me if I upgrade cameras in the future. I am just getting into photography but see myself as being a lifelong enthusiast and will be taking a photography course at a local community college this summer to get better at it. I am not looking to becoming a professional - i just want to be somewhat good at it. I have a unique opportunity to buy this lens for a price approximately $350 less that what I see it being advertised for and was wondering if it is the way I should go? Help please!!
