Customer Rating:      Summary: Totally love it! Comment: There are so many good reviews already, I just wanted to say again what a great lens this is! I take pictures of my baby with it all the time, and can't believe how well this lens performs.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Nikon 55-200mm VR Comment: No complaints, I use it in addition to the 18-55 that came with my d40x.
Customer Rating:      Summary: No Brainer Comment: This lens is a no brainer. The value for your dollar spent is very high. This is not the sharpest tele lens on the market, but to get a significant improvement one would need to spend nearly 10 times the amount I paid direct from Amazon. Even at full retail price this lens is a great buy. Getting it at a very nice discount is icing on the cake.
I'm more of a wide angle shooter so a tele lens is just something extra to have available for specific events. It's not my walk around lens, but I have taken nice shots of the kids at the 55 mark. If you have no intention of getting Nikon's 18-200 then this is the one.
As a side note...make sure you buy from an authorized dealer (Amazon is authorized) or you may not get the 5 year warranty coverage. Amazon doesn't always broker merchandise through authorized dealers so make sure you know who you are buying from before you hit that last button. Amazon really did a nice job on this order. Arrived NEXT DAY even though I only paid for 2 day shipping.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Love it Comment: I bought this as a compliment to my 18-55 kit lens. So far I haven't had an excuse to switch back to the kit lens. The VR option is wonderful. And I've had a few friends with similar Canon lenses remark how much clearer my photos are compared to theirs.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great Value! Comment: The short story here is the lens can pack some great image quality, particularly for the cost and size. Small means portable... I had it in my pocket on my last shoot. Stop it down a bit and the sharpness is right there. The negatives (noisy focus, low light, etc) are easily forgiven for the short money. Add VR and it's a 5-star.
