I can't speak for the 70-300, but I don't imagine it'll be much different from the other two (since it's in the same aperture and price range).Honestly, I don't think you're going to get a faster focus unless you get a D800 or D4. The first time I messed around with a D4 I literally went 'WHAT!?' after pointing it at a subject and taking 11 shots in 1 second. The matrix metering in both is incredible, but so is the price.btw, what focus mode are you using? Have you checked to make sure the 55-300 is focusing correctly with your camera? (others have reported inconsistent focusing with the D7000)</blockquote>
