Hi guys I have been thinking about adding the Nikon AF-S 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR to my collection to work with my nikon d7100. Just woundering if anyone has had any experience with this lens or have any other recommendations.
Adam.

Great lens, very sharp. Pretty heavy though.

I am a Canon user myself, but from my experience of the Nikon lenses in the past, I don't think you have any concerns. They are excellent lenses. That one sounds like a cracker.
Cheers

Am planning to buy one to replace my Tamron 100-400. I used it with a D5600 and it was as if someone had left a vaseline filter on the front element - I ended up using my Nikon 70-200 and enlarging the images, rather than use the Tamron pictures. Whether Nikon optimises its cameras to work better with its own lenses, i can't say, but all the reviews of the 200-500 suggest it is a good investment. I hope to find out on Cobra Warrior.
