Nikkor 55-200mm or 70-300mm?
I have a Nikon D5000. I like it so much great work! But I have a 18-55mm zoom lens that came with my camera. It's time to achieve new goals, because I really am the picture and I really wish I could zoom in much further. The 200mm-55mm Nikkor zoom is $ 250 Zoom Nikkor 70mm-300mm lens is $ 590 My sweet 16 is coming and I am not a party but I wonder how much money I have from my family. I really want the 70mm-300mm, but his face, yes! What do I do?
If you plan to shoot a lot of sports or wildlife, the additional cost to the AF-S VR 70-300 mm will be worthwhile for you. If, however, you really do not need more than a range of 100 mm, the 55-200 mm is a good goal to add to your system. As your budget increases discretionary photography you can plan to spend different amounts on different lenses, lenses that you have researched and decided what is best for you and your shooting style
