Lens review

Nikon Nikkor AF-S 28-300 mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR

10. Autofocus

Because of the presence of the SWM motor the autofocus of the tested lens is silent but it can hardly be called “as quick as a flash”. Running through the distance scale takes about one second. In worse lighting conditions at longer focal lengths that time can be even longer.

The mechanism’s accuracy on the D200 and on the D3x is similar. In both cases the number of misses in studio conditions reached 3-4% which is a low value.

We also didn’t encounter any front or back focus tendencies. The appropriate pictures taken on the D200 and on the D3x are presented below.
