[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 543574, member: 13090"] The Nikon 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G is an okay lens in my book. Very good for what you're paying but then you're not really paying that much. It's not constant aperture, it's not particularly fast, it's not particularly sharp or contrast-y. Oh, and the lens hood sucks. Still, while not a great lens it is a *good* lens, and if you're okay with that you'll probably be quite happy with it. Then we come to the DX "Crop Factor" thing. IMO, this is something people get waaaaay too hung up on. Here is an excellent article on the issue that will explain everything from our friends at Photography Life: [url=https://photographylife.com/what-is-crop-factor]What is Crop Factor?[/url] [/QUOTE]
