[QUOTE="MoonManMike, post: 154214, member: 10151"] Apart from the focal length variance, just what exactly is the difference between these two lenses? I've carried out several searches and it seems that some of the 55-300 have plastic mounts, whilst all the 70-300 have metal mounts. It also seems that there is little difference between the two in general usage. The 55-300 is however, considerably cheaper. Does anyone know why? Are there any other differences? I need to sell my 55-200 and get one of the above lenses and don't want to go cheaper and wish I hadn't! Thanks [/QUOTE]
