I’ve been looking to get a new zoom lens for my Nikon D50 and I finally made my decision. I decided to go with the NEW Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S VR Zoom-Nikkor.

I have the upcoming week off and I plan on really putting this lens to the test. Why am I so excited about this lens? For many reasons, mainly due to all of the key features of the camera. If you’re looking for a good zoom lens for a respectable price definitely check this one out. To name a few some of the features I’m excited about are:

Vibration Reduction (VRII) minimizes the effects of camera shake allowing photographers to shoot handheld at as many as 4 shutter speeds slower* than would otherwise be possible, assuring dramatically sharper images.

Two Nikon Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass elements deliver superior optical performance for both digital and 35mm photography. ED glass minimizes chromatic aberrations, contributing to superb contrast and resolution performance.

A Silent Wave Motor (SWM) enables fast and quiet autofocusing, along with quick switching between autofocus and manual operation (M/A and M).

Look out for my detailed review and some sample shots taken with this amazing product!
