 Good lens for the money July 13, 2008
Got this lens for pics I plan on taking of my kids and vacation.
PLEASE BE AWARE that you need a AF-S for automatic focus on a Nikon D40.
This lens does focus well,just not what I expected.
 Muy bueno! April 7, 2008

Les recomiendo absolutamente este producto. A pesar de no ser autofoco, vale la pena ya que su precio es la mitad y enfocar es realmente facil, requiere un poco de practica y listo. El despacho funciono muy bien y el servicio exlcente.

I bought this lens to try on my New Nikon D200, even though it is not a fast lens for indoor photography. I solved the problems by using my SB 800 flash with diffuser and bounce to ceiling, far close up shot of people up to 20-30 ft away is tack sharp with barely no shadows. Outside is a different story it is very sharp between 100 to 400 ISO and quick to focus, the motor sound don't bother me. I shot a lot of macro and potrait with this lens. I will continue to use this until I can save for Nikon 70-200 F/2.8 VR ($1,800 plus tax plus add $450.00 for 2x converter. Taken to this lens pinted to 8 X 10 is excellent. By taking landscapes shot tripod mount and use a cord trigger will result in very sharp picture that can be enlarge poster size 20 X 30 inches. I printed some shot on my canon printer ($500.00) 13 X 19 inches the quality is Gallery quality. To make it short, I recommend this lens. you have to realized bokeh or blurring the background is how you select the lens opening (Apertures or F stop). Burst shot is not a problem on my D200 with this lens.For the price what are you waiting for? As long as you know its limitation. I luv the very light weight. I have tried the 70-200 F/2.8 VR mounted on my Nikon D200 with Battery Grip in our local camera shop, I don't know if you can bear the weight to walk around with it.
 It's cheap at least December 27, 2007

Pros:
Cheap cheap cheap
Lightweight
Smooth in manual focus
Cons:
SLOW Autofocus (body driven, rather than internal)
High f/stops
Non-ED glass
Very soft...sharpness and contrast leave alot to be desired. The 18-70 kit lens from my D70S is sharper and has higher contrast (thanks to the ED glass)
Overall, you get what you pay for. If you're looking for a lens for wildlife photography where you need to get the shot the first time and have it be nice and sharp in all conditions, look elsewhere. For posed portraits under good/controlled lighting, this will be a low-cost alternative to a nicer lens.
