Focus=Slow it’s a deal breaker for me. I’m getting the 80-200 2.8- Yeah it costs more but as they say the poor man pays twice.
I just bought it 7 days ago.
From the body of lens, it looks new. But after careful checking, I found some dust inside both sides of lens, especially inside that smaller lens contacting camera body. Also I saw little scratch on the lens.
I was worried, so I took few tests by shooting at a pure white page and shooting in a pure dark room. Luckily those dust does not affect the images (no dust spot on the images).
Other aspects of this lens are good. Only those dusts disappoint me a little.~~~
This lens is horrible out past 200mm. It is completely soft. If you do anything with stock photography (where they review photos at 100%) or need to be able to print decent size photos do not buy this lens. Anything shot beyond 200mm is too poor of quality to even print a 4 by 6. I bought a sigma 18-200 after buying this and now never use the nikon lens. Waste of money!
Ordered this lense through Amazon and recieved it from Complete Camera on Dec. 21. Gray market?? It has a 5 year USA warranty as promised. Great lense. Must be they are all sold out already. Checked with Ritz Camera and they do not have stock.. If you get a chance again buy it up!!!
