NIKON 70-300mm AF-P f/4.5-5.6 E ED VR - REVIEW

In this video I explain why I chose the AF-P NIKKOR 70-300 mm f/4.5-5.6E ED VR and sold the SIGMA 100-400mm F5-6.3 DG OS HSM | Contemporary.
This Nikon lens is ideal for travel photography, wildlife photography and sports and action photography.
This 70-300mm zoom lens delivers great results and can save you money.
I also test this lens against the 85mm f/1.8 prime lens.
2:10 * I meant my Nikon D500 instead of the D800.

[@billangel6]

Thank you for an excellent presentation. You've convinced me that this lens would be a meaningful upgrade to replace my current telephoto zoom (Nikon 80-200mm f/4.5-5.6 D )

[@WimBals]

You're welcome.

[@wwcreations1]

I bought the 70-300mm nikkor lens 15 years ago and it is still the sharpest lens in my collection. Mine is not light weight and is quite heavy for its compact size. They are on the market for $800 CAN and still in demand which means they are not going anywhere. I used it on my D80 and now on my z50 and will be using it on my z6ii when it arrives. One lens that is staying for good.

[@WimBals]

I don't know if you have the af-s or the af-p version. In any case, the af-p gives a lot of value for the money. Still love this lens too.

This 70-300 and the 200-500 are both easily in the top 5 absolute best zoom lenses you can get for the money, across all brands. Tremendous values. The 200-500 is currently $1060 (US$) during holiday promo sales. Great review here.

My work with this lens ( VR Version ) was featured on social media platforms and magazines, for about 200-300 dollars Canadian you guys cannot go wrong specially if photographing stationary objects or bigger wildlife in zoos but there will be large issue shooting birds in flight if your distant from the subject, or smaller birds, i would suggest the sigma 150-600mm

[@ErikssonTord_2]

Hi, My first visit to your site today (enjoyed it a lot, not least the Voigtlander 58 review - I love that lens!). I had the AF-S 70-300G and then after trying the Tamron 70-300 VC (which had problems with flare, otherwise excellent), I ended up with the Sigma 100-400 C, which is pretty outstanding, in my book, but now needs servicing after many years of use (I did fine-tune the focusing using the Sigma dock!), but I do have the AF-P 70-300 DX as well, when I need to travel light! Love your art, and not least the photos! I'll be back!

Thank you Frank, For art reproduction it is best to work with a macro lens because it gives the least distortion, is very sharp and gives accurate colors. I myself work with the Irix 150mm which is a manual focus lens. But other good lenses are Sigma 105mm macro, Tamron 90mm, Nikon 60mm macro, Nikon 55mm macro. Cheers, Wim

What do you think about using this with a Nikon D7500, I want a Super tele for photographing air shows and wildlife / birds without breaking the bank and this gives you 450mm on the D7500. (FX 70-300 AFP on my DX D7500)

[@carlgarrard9710]

Sorry the 100-400 C Sigma is the best lens I've used in Canon or Nikon F mount for auto focus accuracy, tracking, and speed. By FAR. There are so many variables when it comes to focus accuracy within the camera or lens settings, that unless you really really know what you are doing, its easy to blame the camera or lens. While the AF-P remains a good lens for Nikon F mount shooters, without doubt, I'd suspect that you re-visit your opinion of the SIgma here.

[@WimBals]

I have owned both lenses at the same time and was able to keep the variables out of the equation. The Nikon was more accurate in the AF. Nevertheless, the Sigma is a very good lens with of course the extra 100mm

[@carlgarrard9710]

There are variables you cannot control such as sample variation however. I used the Sigma on multiple bodies on two separate mounts, aps-c and full frame, and its focus accuracy was spot on with every single camera - this without any correction having to be made in any of the cameras. It's quite possible, your copy of the Sigma wasn't the best of the samples out there, perhaps an earlier version or there were conflicts with firmware in the cameras- it's really tough to say you had all the variables under control. I think it's worth your time to do a retest with another Sigma. I tested it with 7 different Canon bodies, and 5 different Nikon bodies and the results were always consistent to the point of being jaw dropping- whether that meant static subjects or birds in flight, you name it. You can see why I decided to comment with that kind of performance. It's my go to lens for action after testing several native lenses in each mount, simply because of its consistent nature of accurate high quality images in any situation. Price has nothing to do with that decision either. Take another look at the Sigma, I say :).

[@WimBals]

It's great to hear that you like the Sigma so much. At the moment I mainly use the NIKON AF-S 300MM F/4.0E PF ED VR which is amazing to use and leaves the zooms behind. I'm planning another review of this lens soon.

[@williamblackwell9558]

Did you say on your D800 camera has a crop sensor? I guess compared to medium format it is a crop sensor...lol,

You can't go wrong with this lens.

@@WimBals Hi would just like to know which cameras you used this lens with. Would really like to know if you have experience of using this with a DX body and what the low light performance is considering the minimum aperture will be F8. I want the lens for birding and wildlife and low light performance is important to me. Thanks for your input.

[@eurika391]

You mentioned in the video the D800 as a crop sensor camera. The D800 is rather a full frame camera and would give you the field of view of 70-300 mm the lens is designed for, not the field of view of 105-450 which you would get on a DX body.

[@WimBals]

@@eurika391 I used this lens on the D500, D800 and D810. Of course you can test this lens is for your needs by renting it. If money isn't a problem: Nikon 120-300mm f2.8 for lowlight conditions.

2:09 "D800 with a cropped sensor???" Maybe, you're thinking of a D80? Or do you use your D800 with the DX crop factor applied in the camera settings? The D800 is for sure a full frame body.

Nikon's AF-P lenses do not work with the D5100. You need the AF-S version.

[@akhileshvj]

Is this good for clicking tiger photos in the wild if at a considerable distance ??

[@WimBals]

No, too short. The range you want is 200-600mm.

[@user-ti4cm5yf6m]

I am using 70-200F4G now, do you think I need to change to 70-300E for 100mm focal segment? I am now going to use one of them with the Z6 to shoot the plane, I already have 24-70F2.8g to take the shot.

[@WimBals]

Hard to say, if you feel like you're a bit short in length I'd go for it. In terms of sharpness, both lenses are almost the same, the autofocus on the 70-300 mm is surprisingly fast. You do lose a full stop of light at 300mm (f/5.6), but since you photograph airplanes, I suspect you have enough light. The choice is yours, in any case, the 70-300 mm is a beautiful and light lens.

If you want to stick with dx, you can also consider the AF-P DX NIKKOR 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3G ED VR. Very cheap lens with good results if you have enough light. If you still lack reach, you can still consider the 200-500mm. Keep in mind the impact of the increase in weight of the lens if you are out all day.

[@zyacr1808]

Hello, would a 70-300mm work well for me with a Nikon 5600 or is there a better option?

[@WimBals]

The 70-300mm would work well with the D5600. The even better option would be: 70-200mm f/2.8 or f/4 and 300mm f/4 pf. However, this would be a more expensive solution. If you just want more reach, the Sigma 100-400mm is also a great lens for its price.

[@gravesend46]

I am a beginner looking to step up from a bridge camera for soccer photography. A Nikon 7200 will be the body, will this do a job in low light given its relatively high/variable f-stop?

[@WimBals]

With your D7200 you will be able to handle higher ISO values much better than with your former bridge camera. In other words, you can compensate for the variable aperture with a higher ISO value. Faster glass (Nikon 70-200 f2.8) is of course even better but this comes with a significant price and weight increase.

Hi, a lot depends on whether you use the live view function a lot. That being said, you can also check your battery status in the menu. Buying a new original battery can sometimes work wonders.

[@thuthuatcongnghe8363]

@@WimBals Thank you for your reply, so is the sharpness at 70-200 of the two lenses much different?

[@WimBals]

There is also a bit better color rendition and most of all faster autofocus on the af-p. The quality on the shorter end is quite equal.

[@thuthuatcongnghe8363]

Thanks a lot. Wishing you good health

D800 is not a cropped sensor it is a full frame camera

I know, is mentioned in the description.

[@mohammedakram4529]

I have got the 18-55 AFP lens. It's very light, you can almost think of it being cheap quality. But it's not, this lens has produced the best colours and super sharp brilliant pictures. Do not underestimate this one. I hope the DX 70-300 afp lens is also as good as the 18-55.

[@WimBals]

This review is not about the dx version, however it is a great small zoom lens too considering its price.

[@mohammedakram4529]

There is a DX version also available.

[@WimBals]

Yes, that's right. However you are losing some light then on the long side -> f/4.5-6.3g

[@siriusgd4753]

I just ordered one for my Nikon D500 and am excited about getting it. There is a cheaper DX version but I got this FX version. $598. The other one doesn't have the metal mount or the VR and M/A buttons on it.

[@WimBals]

It's a great and compact lens, enjoy it!
