This kit is jam packed with all the trappings of a Nikon digital camera that you could possibly need. For about $200, you get the Nikon 55-200mm Nikkor zoom lens, Vivitar 52mm UV glass filter, the Precision Design six piece lens and digital SLR cleaning kit, and CapKeeper 2 lens cap strap. The lens, of course, includes Nikon’s patented VR image stabilization — you won’t have to worry about erroneous shaking as you try to steady your hand held. It also ensures that no matter how fast your subject’s moving you’re going to get your picture.
The big surprise is the Vivitar UV filter. As the name suggests, this filter blocks ultraviolet light from reaching your film, getting rid of that gnarly hazy effect that comes with over exposure. The bonus comes with its ability to protect your lens from scratches. There are times when my camera bag is overstuffed –not great, but I was in a rush– and man was I glad I had that filter because my lens would have been worked!
This is kit is a necessity for any digital photographer. Take it from me; it’s saved my skin on more than one occasion.
