Nikon Nikkor AF-P 70-300mm

I really, really wanted this lens to live up to the reviews I had read in researching this lens, but it just fell short. I have a Nikon D850 body, and from all that has been written, it should have been a shoe in for that body. The lens required a firmware update, which I already had. So, according ...

I returned this lens. It just wasn't sharp enough, IQ wasn't very good compared to any of my other Nikons. I took some shots of the moon with it on the D850, and the shots I took with at 105mm and cropped with my 105mm macro were actually better than the ones taken at 300mm with this lens. I ordered...

My motivation for trying this new lens is that each summer (April through September) I spend a bunch of time in the garden photographing hummingbirds. My best photos are usually made with the Af-S 300mm F/4 prime, but it is a heavy lens for extended use. Most times I use a monopod to help support th...

I had to save up to get this lens for a long time since it wasn't in my budget for a long time. (The lens price was 3X the price I paid for my Nikon camera.) I loved the photos I was getting from it and the quick, quiet, accurate autofocus this lens offered. I absolutely loved it! After 13 months, t...

If I were to rate the image quality of the 70-200mm f2.8 lens out of 90, I could only give this lens a 75, but shot under the right circumstances, and a few simple adjustments to the raw image afterwards could upgrade the image a final score of 85. Considering the price, weight, and telephoto of thi...

Storyline, bought a Z6, anyone who has looked at them knows there is a lack of telephoto Z lenses. So with the adapter in hand I bought this lens after a bad experience with the older af-s version. Seems to work pretty good, but of course it has it's limitations with a starting aperture of 4.5. Shou...

I thought this would be a good lens for capturing wildlife but it just doesn't have enough reach. The quality is excellent so those photos I do take are great but I was expecting more. Go with the 200-500 mm if you want to photograph wildlife, especially birds.

Nikon AF-P Nikkor 70-300mm 1:4.5-5.6E ED VR zoom lens I have recently purchased the AF=P 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 lens, after using the older AF-S 70-300 f4.5-5.6 lens for 12 years. I do not yet have much experience with it, but I can report a few things. It focuses much faster than the older AF-S lens, a...

Bought this for a zoom for my Z6 as don't see a Z equivalent any time soon. First impressions support the various reviews of this lens. It is a reasonable weight and balances well on the Z6 with the PTZ. The zoom is smooth to use and the focus ring works well with the focus peaking. General initial ...

Just got this lens for bird mating season and it's killing it with a good amount of zoom, very good auto focus, very good VR and great clarity. Have not done any sports yet i think it will be fun there is a sports setting on the switch as well as manual and auto focus The AF P pulse motor is very qu...
