Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 55–300mm f/4.5–5.6G ED VR Telephoto Zoom Lens: Be ready for almost any shot with this Nikon telephoto zoom lens. Lightweight and versatile, this lens captures crisp images even from a distance, allowing you to take sports photos from the bleachers and extend your reach for landscape and wildlife photography. Vibration reduction technology smooths out images for blur-free panning and still photography.

This is an average long zoom at best. Very soft beyond 250MM (at least with a D5500). The new 70-300 AF-P VR is a much better lens.

The drive died after only doing weekly backups. First Aid was unable to repairthe drive. I would recommend looking at other drives. This is the second ED to go bad on me.

I'm a big fan of the M43 format. Good cameras in a small form factor. The E-M10 is a great camera except that it has a tendency to underexpose by 1 stop or more. Video quality is average at best. Any of the Sony Alphas or the Panasonic M43 camera have much better photo capability.

I've had this camera for a couple of days. So far I'm impressed with the focusing speed. Picture quality is on par with other 1/2.3 sensor cameras. The lens cap is a joke. A real pain to take off and on the camera. I plan on getting a 55mm UV filter to protect the camera lens from smudges. Another minus for me is no external charger with this camera.
What's great about it: Fast BOINZ Processor
What's not so great: Lens cap is a PITA
I would recommend this to a friend!
