  • Ideal lens for extreme telephoto shots
I've always wanted a lens that could take a top quality closeup of a feeding hummingbird from 20 feet away, and this is that lens. Yes, it cost a lot more than the Nikon 1 J4 body with which I use it, but is still a bargain compared to any lens able to do the same on a full-frame camera. Plus, and this is important to me, I can carry ALL of my daily use lenses in a very small and light camera bag. Even at full extension (300mm), this lens is much smaller and lighter than the 300mm full-frame lens I recently noticed being used by another photographer, and also opens wider for use away from full daylight. I recently considered getting a new fixed lens camera with over twice the resolution of my J4, but decided instead to make up the quality difference with great lenses, and ended up with a camera that is even more pocket-able, yet far more flexible when very wide angle or very long telephoto shots are needed, for less money overall. Another surprising factor is that my shots in JPEG format are already usually above 8MB in size, which already limits me to sending one photo per email to some of my friends. I hope the Nikon 1 series continues and keeps improving. If it does, Nikon can be sure I'll keep buying. One other suggestion: if you buy this lens ever expecting to use it on a tripod, also get a NIKON TR-N100 TRIPOD MOUNT VR 70-300. Together they balance perfectly on my tripod's Manfrotto 128LP Micro Fluid Head, even allowing me to swap batteries as needed (important, given how quickly my J4 chews through them.) ... show more

  • The image quality and dampening of movement at full zoom is excellent. It is aggressive though.
It is an exception lens. The image quality and dampening of movement at full zoom is surprisingly excellent. It is aggressive though. Slight rotation of the sleeve and the extent of the zoom is sharp and sudden. For quick action shots I suspect it woudl work well as long at the camera focus can keep up with the image and the lens. For other uses its practicality may be limited. Time will tell. ... show more

  • Solid with Reach
If your looking for a super telephoto lens for your Nikon Series 1 camera - this should suit your needs very nicely. I have owned my Nikon 1 V3 now for a year and have the wide to medium lens; I was looking for a longer reach lens and finally decided to go for it. As you know the CX sensors on the Nikon 1 cameras produce a 2.7 crop factor making this lens have a field of view similar to that of a 189mm - 810mm lens; which translate to a long to super telephoto lens. Pros: It is a solid mostly metal lens, Has very good optical performance, speed of focus is quick, light for what you get (1.2 lbs) Cons: Extends and retracts during zoom function, inner barrel is plastic, no weather sealing, price, If you are looking to see "real" photos taken with this 70-300 using a Nikon 1 V3 visit: http://www.truetoad.com/Reviews I can recommend this lens to the die hard Nikon 1 users but the price is a bit much. ... show more

  • Amazing lens with one BIG problem... Amazing lens with one BIG problem...
Don't get me wrong: this lens is AMAZING and I simply LOVE it. I also think that Nikon 1 concept is great: quality light weight, small, fast and quite camera with interchangeable lens. Being able to easily hold in one hand more than 800mm is not trivial at all. This lens, for its size, has great: build, optics and speed. Unfortunately it has just one BIG problem: durability. Despite its good and solid construction, I believe that this lens has some inherent problem causing it to stop functioning properly after about 6 to 12 months of use. I purchased my lens at November 2014. After a little more than 6 months the lens started making some strange noises mainly at 200mm to 300mm. It sounds like something is slipping inside the mechanism of the lens. In some of the times I got an error on the screen saying: "Lens error. Contact a Nikon-authorized service center." (image attached). Of course the lens was kept properly and never fell. As time passed (few months) the problem became worse and I started getting this error all the time along with the same strange noises. Luckily, the lens was under warranty and after contacting Nikon I decided to send it for inspection. Nikon told me the lens could not be repaired and that they will send me a new piece. When the new lens arrived it was easy to tell that it is not brand new. There were some marks on the tripod mount hinting that this lens was probably used for some testing. I didn't mind about it so much, since I mainly cared that the lens will work properly. I tested the lens and it was working pretty well. It seemed like this piece was having some small backfocus issues, but it was not a big deal, so instead of waiting a long time for a replacement I decided to stick with this one. After about 6 months of using the new lens, I started having the EXACT same problems again. Unfortunately this time I had no warranty because the old lens was replaced. Since the EXACT same problem happened to the lens twice I can only assume that there is some inherent problem with the design or construction of the lens. ... show more

  • Well built Super Tele in a small package - can't wait to take it on a field trip
Just received this zoom this week. I have not had time to really put it through its paces yet. But here are my first impressions: - Feels well built. Nice solid feeling lens. Feels good attached to my Nikon 1 V3 - Zoom ring feels similar in texture to the 10-100 zoom - weight - not too heavy. About the weight of my 18-200 zoom that I had for my Nikon D300 - It's incredible that I now have the equivalent of a 810mm focal length in my bag in such a small package - Initial photos seem sharp and clear - but i have not taken a ton of photos yet, as I am waiting for my UV filter before i really use this lens. Nothing much to not like about this lens. Overall - I am very happy and can't wait to take this lens on my next vacation and photo field trip. ... show more

  • An amazing lens An amazing lens
An astonishingly good lens, which makes the 1 system nearly complete. Ironically, since it is so good, it's also the heaviest lens in the 1 system lineup, so be prepared. Great glass does have some heft. But boy is this great glass. And for the reach and quality, there are few rivals. This plus the V2 body is the lightweight birder's tool you have been looking for. Now if Nikon would just make some fast wide lenses -- even wider than the wide zoom, and faster, we'd have a system that rivals most DSLRs from a few years ago. ... show more

Small, perfect sharpness, depth of field that no other lens can provide. You just need enough light when use with Nikkon 1 J5 to show its power.

  • Fabulous lens for the Nikon 1 Series!
This lens is truly amazing! Sometimes it focuses slow, but once it does, the image is sharp, clear and perfect. Very light, and looks impressive. The combo of this lens and the Nikon 1 V3, it produces high quality, awesome photos!
