Neighbor's boy is bouncing a ball. I think I am going to ask him if he's got some time so I can get more practice with my 55-300 in action.

I just brought this lens today. I think I am going to love it. some great shots on this post.

It is a great lens, to me it is the zoom / telephoto version of the 35mm F1.8 - You get a lot of lens for what you pay!

Just increase the ISO to keep the shutter and aperture in control, and you will get great, sharp shots!

It is almost impossible to buy any other DSLR lens with this focal length range, that good, that cheap...

I bought the same lens when I first purchased my D5100. I have since bought a D7100 and the 18-140 mm kit lens and I still have the 55-300. After seeing those shots, I think I'll keep that lens. For the money you can't go wrong with the 55-300 lens. Very good pictures, and although the bokeh is not great, it will suffice for the price (did I just say that? lol). I love the different subjects you shoot with that lens! Great work!

More and more I am gonna using my Nikon 55-300. Now I love it. I am happy I didn't follow my "Wants" to buy a Nikon 70-300. This goes goes for my other gears as well. I am happy and proud what I have and that I can use it now much better. The saved money goes in my next vacation with my family.

You use that lens very well Michael. The more you use it the more proficient you will no doubt become.
