The Nikon 70-300mm is a powerful 4.3X telephoto zoom lens whose zoom range is ideal for portraits, candids, sports, travel, wildlife, and nature photography. This versatile lens also has macro capability for impressive close-ups of smaller objects such as flowers. Vibration Reduction (VR) provides sharper, blur-free pictures at shutter speeds as much as 4 stops slower than one could ordinarily handhold; a Silent Wave motor (AF-S) for fast and quiet autofocus operation; Extra-Low Dispersion glass (ED) to minimize chromatic aberrations; and Internal Focusing (IF) for faster autofocusing.

Avoid camera shake and achieve maximum image quality by setting your camera on this sturdy, lightweight 57-inch tripod.

Protect your camera's LCD screen from scratches and dirt with the LCD Screen Protection Kit.

The Nikon Lens Cleaner Kit includes 1 fl. oz. Spray Bottle of Liquid Lens Cleaner, Pack of 3 Moist Lens Cleaning Cloths and a Microfiber Cleaning Cloth.

The Nikon Lens Pen Cleaning System has a soft retractable brush and a non-liquid compound on a natural chamois tip to remove fingerprints, dust and grit from any lens.

The Precision Design Deluxe Hurricane Blower's super air stream blows off dust particles, even those attracted by static electricity.

Clean the LCD monitor safely and completely without smearing with the Microfiber Cleaning Cloth.

Great Deal, I love the lens, its a great for everyday use walking around, hiking, fishing, hunting, sports, and just walking around while on vacation. I am looking forward to going hunting and fishing in the early spring. You get all you need to keep your lens clean and in good shape. The tripod is to small for my DSLR with the 70-300mm lens attached but its great for a small compact Digital Camera.
The VR takes some getting use to but, I will just have to learn to wait a second longer for it to stablize the image. After this winter I will have to write another review. But for now I love it and I would recommend it to all my friends. To everyone who is looking for a midrange Lens this is the one for you.

For a few dollars more I purchased the kit since I had none of these accessories. The lens is working fine. I'm new to photography and have no complaints with it yet. The tripod is light and comes with a carrying case. I don't expect to use it much but it's nice to have and the reason I went for this kit. The cleaning accessories will be handy to have; cleaning cloths, air blower and cleaning solution. The Nikon lens pen has two ends, a retractable brush which is useful and glad to have and the other is for wiping surfaces but it seems to be leaving black smudges...hmmmm...not useful. I also applied the LCD screen protectors but I'm not happy with them. They seem to come off a little to easy when I put/pull the camera in/out of its carrying case. Overall, happy with the purchase. Just a few of the accessories aren't what I was expecting or meeting expectations.
