중고 Nikon AF 70-300mm f4-5.6 D ED Nikkor 렌즈

Was a bit nervous buying used, but the glass is spotless and the autofocus is snappy. Captured some great sports shots at the local field this weekend. Happy I went for it.

I’ve been using this 70-300mm for weekend wildlife shots and the ED glass really cuts down on chromatic aberration compared to my old kit lens. Autofocus is snappy enough for birds in flight, and the build feels solid for a used lens.

For the price of a used lens, the 70-300mm range is incredibly useful for capturing distant wildlife without breaking the bank. The image quality is surprisingly sharp even at the long end, though the aperture does get a bit slow in low light.
