reviewswhat are people saying

"Auto focus is dead accurate and super fast, my perception is this is one of the fastest focusing Nikon lenses available and I've got numerous experience with the Nikon line to compare it against."

"Superb lens that really "delivers" superb images when used on my D3. It definitely matches my hopes/expectations."

"Big and heavy! But I knew it would be!"
