Then please respond!! > Magnus, I own this lens. It is a very serviceable 300mm lens. I don't use it terribly often, but have produced some nice slides w/ it. It is slightly less contrasty v. other Nikkors, probably due to coating differences. But on a tripod, stopped down to f8, it does a fine job. Not bad bokeh either. I have not used any other 300mm Nikkors.
