Since my Nikkor has 18-55VR no longer sufficed me for all situations needed a telephoto lens. This is me right in the eye and razor-priced because you can not afford a 500 lens as a student, it is then also this has become. The first impression was that it seemed very well made and can make amazingly small for 300mm. After some tests I was then what picture quality terms also very satisfied, the only thing that bothers me is that the zoom is somewhat cumbersome and can not be set exactly right away. But with a bit of back and forth to get it but then adjusted exactly to the mm. The autofocus is quite noisy, but good and accurate and I normally eh manually Fokusiere does not bother me that. Unfortunately, I got me under the macro presented something more unfortunately, the pictures are not as close as I hoped I'll try it once with a close-up lens.
Conclusion: Despite the small deductions 4 stars because there is nothing better in the price range. So I can recommend for the budget conscious, it only!
