This lens is working out great for me!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 14, 2010

Style: Lens OnlyVerified Purchase

With my D300s I'd been shooting a lot with the 18-200 VRI for about a year. As a travel/all purpose "go to" lens it was great and practical to have. However, once I started using primes, I think I got spoiled for the speed and sharpness, leaving me wanting more than what the 18-200 could give me. So I sold it to help fund a replacement lens. After researching heavily, I still had trouble making a choice. I think it may be true that there isn't one perfect lens that 'does it all".

I tried out a 70-200 2.8 VR and although it is as phenomenal as I heard, I found it a tad intimidating in size and price - especially since it would leave me needing a second lens to make up for the wide end. Then I considered the new 24-120 f/4, thinking it would be sort of a happy medium but I ruled it out because I wanted to zoom to 200 or better. I considered the 80-200 for the lower price, but no VR. I just wanted something sharper and faster than the 18-200 I'd been using. After getting flabbergasted over which choice to make, I stumbled upon news of the brand new Nikkor 28-300 VR. Although it isn't the f/2.8 and pro lenses I was looking at, I decided It seemed like a safe choice so I ordered it to give it a whirl.

After shooting some shots, I already see that it is miles ahead of my copy of the 18-200 VRI in sharpness and contrast. It seems a bit faster in autofocus but still is pokier in dim lighting than I'd like. I put the camera's ISO setting on auto for the sake of learning the lens and it wasn't a big issue in the late afternoon shade nor with the images coming out 'too' soft at lower apertures -even with a full out 300mm focal range. I think for low light conditions, I'd be better off with this lens on the D700, which has higher ISO capabilities and with less noise than my D300s. Knowing the limitations of this combo, it will force me to learn how to work more creatively with flash or natural light with reflectors.

Post processing the shots from this lens hasn't been the hassle I was accustomed to with the distortions and CA's I was getting from the old lens. I think that the colors are nicer and that there seemed to be less noise, as well. These improvements, along with the extra reach, make it well worth the extra cost over the old lens. It is a lot less cost and weight than the 2 pro (70-200 & 24-70 2.8's) lenses combined, plus you get a little more reach.

My only concern is the obvious fact that this lens will not come close to the speed I enjoy with the 1.8 primes that I use. But at least while traveling -it takes away the burden of weight and cost of the (more than one pro lens) alternative and the inconvenience of having to change lenses -especially while on a family trip. Some say this is not for a DX camera because it wouldn't be wide enough at the short end, but I think it is just fine for me...I rarely used the widest part of my 18-200 lens - I was mostly wishing I could zoom closer.

I'm still planning to get a fast telephoto specifically for birding one day. I'll use this one in the meantime, while I buy a bit of time to gain more money and knowledge before taking that plunge.

10X zoom with good sharpness? Impressive

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 14, 2012

Style: Lens OnlyVerified Purchase

Let me preface this by saying that I did not expect much from this 10x zoom. I ordered it because the 24-120mm was out of stock and this was in stock (for about an hour) and I was truly intrigued by a do it all zoom. Having used the 24-120mm F/4 before I knew that it would be a step down in sharpness with this lens. The results confirm that fact. I was initially disappointed in the quality when I view pictures at 1:1 on a D800. However, if all lens are judged by sharpness alone, we'd all be carrying 10 primes in our backpacks.

I thought, perhaps I should order the 24-120mm and 70-300mm which theoretically would give me better quality at both ends. I ordered the 70-300mm VRII lens for comparison because conventional wisdom tells us that a 5x zoom should beat a 10x zoom in quality, right? Wrong! I've read Mansurov's review and expected the 70-300mm to as good or better than the 28-300 but my findings totally contradicted his. Perhaps the D800 has something to do with it? I could not find pictures as soft as the ones in his review. Here's the kicker, the 28-300 is a BETTER lens beyond 200mm than the 70-300mm. The contrast is superior whereas the the 70-300mm has bluish fringe color cast at the long end. At 70mm, the 70-300mm is ever so slightly sharper but again, the contrast is better on the 28-300mm. At 140-160mm, I found that the 28-300mm slightly edges out the 70-300mm, but again, contrast is superior on the 28-300mm. I have to chalk it up to the ED glasses in this lens.

The corners are softer than the center. However, if you need corner to corner sharpness, a prime rather than a zoom is the lens you want.

With a little sharpening post process and a resize of the image to 12MP or so, the softness is gone. The D800 is a superb camera in more ways than one. This is what it boils down to. At 1:1 pixel peeping on the D800, the difference in quality lens can be seen. Once downsized and post processed, it is truly difficult to judge the differences. For landscapes and 100% wall pictures that demand critical sharpness, you should look elsewhere. However, for me, I'm satisfied with such a versatile lens.

I returned the 70-300mm and will keep the 28-300mm as a utility zoom with very decent 200-300mm range. Did I receive a bad copy of the 70-300mm? I don't know and I don't really want to order another one to find out.

One thing to keep in mind is that during my test at 10 feet away from the test chart, the 28-300mm pictures are all farther way than the 70-300. Bear that in mind if you're going to use it for a faux Macro lens. There is definitely focus breathing on this lens.

My rating is based on the total package not just on the sharpness alone. A 10x zoom that is equal and in some ways, sharper and better than a 5x zoom? That's a definite 5 stars.

Update 6/24/12: I'm returning this lens. The distortion, even when fixed in post is still noticeable. Furthermore, I find that I refrain from shooting this wide open as it's unacceptable so it's a zoom lens that has a sweet spot at 5.6-8.

Versatile lens and great fun to use

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on April 8, 2021

Style: Lens OnlyVerified Purchase

I use this lens as a hobbyist but also for my business to take product shots. I am very happy with the image quality but more than anything I love the versatility and not having to change lenses often. Obviously it doesn't let as much light in as primes so you do need to watch your shutter speeds, it's easy to get camera shake at longer focal lengths. VR does help with that but you'll find it eats the battery life quite quickly. In the studio it is fantastic for product shots where I can zoom in and out in Liveview to frame the subject perfectly. For my purposes the sharpness is sufficient and I am hard pushed to tell the difference between shots taken with this versus a prime but then I'm not obsessive about image quality.
Overall I highly recommend this lens. The only downside is the weight, when I switch back to say a 35mm prime my D750 suddenly feels as light as a feather!

Fraggle

didn't disappoint.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on August 19, 2013

Style: Lens OnlyVerified Purchase

I read all the previous reviews and hummed and hah'd before getting this lens. I did the right thing! Prior to this I had been using a D7000 with various fixed lenses and the kit lens, but when I went full frame to a D700 I wanted a lens that I didn't have to faff on changing when out on expeditions. I'm not a pro, so it's perfect for most of what I need to do, and other than my macro lens, stays put on the 700. Yes it's all bigger and heavier but I'm a lil' ol' lady and I can manage it quite easily. I have been quite amazed at how far I can bump the ISO up and still have very little noise with this combo, far superior to my previous kit. As it's mostly dark and cloudy where I live oop north, that's perfect for me.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on May 31, 2019

Style: Lens OnlyVerified Purchase

First impressions so far:
1) It is pretty heavy. Not a problem for me but for wife and daughter it may be a challenging use.
2) On full zoom, the lens extends out much longer than I expected.

Not yet investigated the quality of the photos taken with a D5100.

'Top Quality' Do It All Lens. Paired With Nikon D750.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on March 16, 2017

Style: Lens OnlyVerified Purchase

I Bought this lens for my Nikon D750 & have to say it works a treat with some fantastic images. Froze passing 80mph motorway traffic like it was standing still in sport mode. Pictures were crisp and sharp and full of colour. Has a great range. Its a bit on the heavy side especially on the D750 but thats the price you pay for decent glass. Highly recommended.

Great

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on February 26, 2014

Style: Lens OnlyVerified Purchase

This is a great full-frame walkabout lens, for those who don't want to lug big heavy lenses whilst they're on the move. Sure it's not perfect, and there are distortions at the lower end of the zoom range, and it's not ideal for low-lighting conditions, but it is capable of excellent results.
If you want to see typical images, I suggest that you take a look at the stuff that users have posted on the Nikon 28-300 user group on Flickr.
