Nikon 55-300mm F / 4.5-5.6 VR FocusingNikon 55-300mm F / 4.5-5.6 VR focuses thanks to 'SWM'-motor (Silent Wbird Motor - quiet wave motor) and refers to the lens''type (with built-in motor focusing). Nikon 55-300mm F / 4.5-5.6 VR uses compact 'swm' motor. Important: this lens will automatically focus on all Nikon DSLR cameras. Despite claims that the focus motor is silent, noise is present during actual operation. This noise will affect the sound quality during movie shooting using the microphone built into the camera. During automatic focusing, you can sometimes hear and feel how unpleasantly the focusing mechanisms rub (including the focus ring). Auto focus speed is highly dependent on the selected focal length. Focusing speed at 55 mm focal length slow, with an increase in focal length, the focusing speed decreases significantly. At 300 mm focal length, the lens spends a lot of time focusing, and the focusing speed at this focal length value can be considered very very low. Focus speed is independent of camera orientation. Most likely this lens is the slowest in the entire line of Nikon DX lenses. On the lens housing you can find . In position 'A', auto focus works, and in position 'M' - manual focus. During auto focus, the focus ring rotates and cannot be touched. To perform manual focusing, the lens must be switched to 'M' mode. The lens does not have a constantly manual focus control mode or A / m. During focusing, the front lens rotates, and the front of the body frame (trunk) moves forward. The focus ring rotates approximately 75 degrees. When the end positions are reached, the focusing ring stops. The ring is narrow, but rubberized. Manual focusing with this lens is hell. With manual focus focus ring jerks. You can forget about smooth focusing - in order to manually shift the focus ring, you have to exert considerable effort, after which the ring starts to move and flies over the desired value. When used on a camera Nikon D90 (with unpretentious Multi-CAM 1000 focusing system) the lens behaves well, rarely focuses incorrectly. I had no problems with focus accuracy and focus. On camera Nikon D90 I checked the presence of the back and focus front at different focusing distances and different values of the focal length (infinity and MDF as well). Pictures taken using the Live View mode (which does not suffer from back / front focus) were used as a measure. Focusing accuracy using the central cross-shaped phase sensor completely coincided with the Live View mode. The minimum focusing distance is 140 cm (the distance from the camera’s matrix / focal plane to the subject). With such an MDF, the maximum magnification factor is achieved by 300 mm of the focal length and is 1: 3.6 (you can shoot a weak macro). Nikon 55-300mm F / 4.5-5.6 VR Other focusing features:
Nikon 55-300mm F / 4.5-5.6 VR Sample PhotosPhotos from Nikon 55-300mm F / 4.5-5.6 VR turn out good, though the lens is a bit soft on a range of 200-300mm on open apertures, there is light vignetting on open apertures.

Nikon 55-300mm F / 4.5-5.6 VR Personal impressionsThe Nikon 55-300mm F / 4.5-5.6 VR is an ambiguous lens. On the one hand, it shows good image quality, and on the other hand, it shows a horribly implemented focusing system. If you have money to spare, I recommend a good and proven full frame lens. Nikon 70-300 mm f / 4.5-5.6G IF-ED AF-S VR Nikkor. If there are no funds, then you can safely do with a simpler model Nikon 55-200 / 4-5.6GII VRII. I recommend this Nikon 55-300mm F / 4.5-5.6 VR only if working in the 200-300mm range really matters. Based on my experience, I want to add that the difference between 200 and 300 mm focal length is not very noticeable in photographs, and 200 mm is quite enough for many photo tasks. Especially EGF for a 200 it will be 300 mm. All in all, I consider the Nikon 55-300mm F / 4.5-5.6 VR an unsuccessful lens.
