Up For Auction Today, I have a Nikon Nikkor 55-200mm VR lens, with Kenko UV Filter.
The lens is basically brand new, used for only about 20 Frames maximum.
The owner bought the camera kit, bought the Kenko UV Filter to protect the lens from scratches etc the very same day and then upgraded to a 18-200mm lens two days later, and has only used that lens since. the camera was bought in August 2012.
Here are some snippets of a review of the lens by Ken Rockwell:
Nikon 55-200mm VR
AF-S f/4-5.6G ED
Introduction
The Nikon 55-200mm VR is a superb lightweight, plastic-mount lens with outstanding performance.
I own the more expensive alternatives, and I usually use this 55-200mm VR instead because it's easier to carry and more fun to use. I have this 55-200mm VR, the
Sharpness and performance are extraordinary. A lens this inexpensive never used to have the right to be this embarrassingly good. VR works great; I can shoot at 1/30 at 200mm and get sharp shots without a tripod! The results are amazing on my 12 megapixel D300 and the 55-200mm VR is so tiny it feels perfect for travel on my D40.
I'm addicted to Vibration Reduction (VR) because it's critical to getting sharp shots with telephoto lenses. VR eliminates camera shake, the biggest reason people get blurry shots with telephoto lenses.
The Nikon 55-200mm VR is significantly better for hand-held shooting than non-VR tele lenses, because the VR helps ensure sharp shots that otherwise are often blurred. VR is less important with normal lenses, and very important with telephoto lenses.
Unlike most of the alphanumeric gibberish on lenses, VR is really, really important. VR can't stop your kids from moving, but it does a spectacular job of letting me shoot in the dim light without the need for a tripod
The 55-200mm VR zooms easily and precisely. The zoom range is well spaced, and VR works great.
Forget the old non-VR 55-200mm. This 55-200mm VR lens costs little more, and VR makes a huge difference with teles.
Used on a digital Nikon it gives angles of view similar to what an 85-300mm lens would give on a 35mm film camera. See also
