I like this lens. I recently bought a Nikon D5200 camera body and have bought two lenses. First lens was a Macro for shooting gemstones. and this lens is for general photography, Even thought it is plastic, it will hold up if you don't abuse the lens.

I had a Nikon Nikkor 55-200 lens with out the VR on it and it was so hard to zoom in and out i was afraid I would twist it out of the camera body so I bought this Nikon with the VR and it only has half as many arms that control the zoom part of the lens and it zooms out real smooth and only take 3/4 of a turn from the 55 to the max 200 zoom the other one took almost a full turn to go out to full zoom. it focuses very clear and stays in focus when frequently zooming in and out of a subject at the same distance as I use it for recording live music on stage where I zoom in and out on each player and it works great for that

After applying up filter, there is no aberration seen by my camera’s sensor to distort my pictures. I was quite surprised with the results. This Nikon lens works great. Many thanks!

Auto focus spends a lot of time "hunting" and even then, doesn't always get it right on my Nikon 1 J5 w/ FL1 adapter. This may be due to the differing lens systems or camera firmware, but I planned to use the in manual focus mode anyway, so I'm happy. Fully functional AF would have gotten it 5 stars.

Good focal length range, acceptably sharp for most end-use images. Rating speed vs. cost, a good trade-off.
