This is the cheapest Nikkor zoom lens that will get you to 300mm, so is the build quality. The lens feel little cheaper next to my 18-105VR ED lens.
I have shot the Moon with this lens. It came out good with all the fine details of the moon.
But the lens is very slow to focus. I used this lens in an air show. It took lot of time to focus the fast moving jets.
You would need a tripod if you are zooming all the way and the lighting is not enough. Even on cloudy day light, pictures came out blurry when completely zoomed in. I think this will be the issue with all zoom lens without VR.
Auto Focusing is noisy but I can live that.
But its definitely worth every single penny if you can't afford its expensive clone VR.
You will not be disappointed. Picture quality is very good.
By the way, I have Nikon D90. I don't have any issues using this lens.
I'm completely satisfied with the lens despite some shortcomings.

this lens is not VR, but for the price, the quality is awesome. I'm an ameture just getting started and this has really made a difference in my pictures.

I have a Nikon D90 kit with the 18-105 VR lens, and I wanted more telephoto reach for the kids' sports games etc. I found this 70-300 non-VR lens for one hundred twenty five dollars at Adorama dot com, shipping included, and received it two days later--wow. My impression is that it is definitely a budget lens but it does a pretty good job for the price. It appears to be well-constructed and it is fairly light weight as the overall construction is made of nicely molded composite-type plastic, so it is not flimsy. The lens comes with a hood and the telephoto adjustment action of the barrel is just as smooth as my kit lens. This lens does not have its own built-in autofocus motor, nor an aperature adjustment ring. However, the D90 does have its own AF motor, which handles the auto focus and aperature just fine, it is pretty fast and accurate. If your camera is the D5000/3000 or D40/60 which do not have an AF motor, I would recommend you avoid this lens unless you have a lot of time ad skill to manual focus your shots. The lens is definitely much softer than my kit VR lens, and definitely not tack-sharp, especially at 200 to 300 mm range, and it needs bright sunshine outside to operate well. It's really not an indoor-use lens unless you have a high ISO and some serious flash capability. Even though this lens lacks the vibration reduction (VR) feature, it is possible to hand-hold it and get some really good shots even at the far end of the range. However, a tripod or even a monopod provide much better stability for fast action shots. I also added a Tiffen 62mm polarizing filter on this lens and that seems to make the colors better but doesn't help the sharpness, so I would still recommend using a filter with this lens. Overall, I would say that this lens will scratch your itch if you just want really good far reach, but you're willing to sacrafice the extra tack-sharpness of the five hundred plus dollar VR Nikkor lens.

This lens is described in the product description as an auto-focus that will work on digital SLR cameras. While the lens is technically an "auto-focus lens" it is misleading. If you have a digital SLR camera youR lens has a switch on the side that allows the camera to focus the lens when you press the photo button. This lens does not do that. On a digital SLR camera it is just a manual focus lens. I called the seller and they wanted to argue that the lens was auto-focus but did agree to allow me to return the lens. So while the lens was new and the size specified, my complaint is that the description misleads you into thinking that this is a fully autofocus lens compatible and fully functional on digital SLR cameras such as my Nikon D40 it is not.

It is a very wonderful lens. I wanted to get the 70-300mm VR but after purchasing this one, I will say I am satisfied and will not be getting the other one. I take so many great pictures with it on my Nikon D5000. I would recommend it to everyone shooting outdoors. It is not the best lens for indoor pictures. The zoom works so well.
