Hi I have the 55-300 f4.5-5.6g ed af-s vr dx nikkor ive only just got it so I don't have any photos I can post yet.

I fine this is a good site to check prices in the uk. http://www.camerapricebuster.co.uk/index.php

At the time Wex Photographic was the cheapest in the uk.

Be wary if you look at amazon lenses

Mike,

Here's a link to pictures taken with different lenses and different cameras. You can select whatever you want and see pictures taken by different people.

Mind you, this will not guarantee you get the same results.

The best lens is the one you own.

Here's the link: Advanced Search

I have the 55-300 and overall am pleased. I use it "primarily" for Wildlife.

This link will take you to my wildlife page... this and page 2 were pretty much all with the 55-300.

I also use it at the Dog Park ... Hope this helps you...

The Link marcel gave you is also a great tool...

I've got the 55-300.

BTW, this forum has a great Telephoto Forum and I posted some 55-300 Test-shots.
