This little lens is the sleeper of Nikon consumer lenes. It is capable of producing some excellent photos on Nikon's consumer and and prosumer bodies. The lens is worth 50-75% more than its bargain price of $150. It is sharp and super lightweight. Perfect walk-around telezoom for my D90.
I own the Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 VRII, which I regard as the reference standard in size lens. And if that lens is a 10 (and by the way, the new VRII 'is really a 10'!), then this lens, which costs 1/10 the price, is a 7.5. Not bad!
Okay, so wouldn't use this lens on D700 or D3 (they are FX anyway), but for the D90 and models below, this is your lens. I have tried the 70-200 f/2.8 VR (the older version) on my D90, and the limitation is the camera. That is too much lens for the D90, and you don't take full advantage of the lens, more so for the new VRII lens.
For the D300, you probably want the 70-300mm VR or the the 70-200 f/2.8 VR or the VRII if you want to pay the extra money.
Yes, this is a plastic lens. But the construction is reasonable for its pricepoint. Don't let the plastic fool you. This lens is fast focusing and accurate. It comes with a 5 year warranty if it goes out of alignment. And for $150, what do you care if it breaks?
As far as I am concerned this lens is a no-brainer addition to the 18-105 kit lens that comes with the D90. The only other choice for that camera is the 70-300mm VR, which will yield slightly better pictures and give some additional range ...but comparing $150 for this lens to $540 for that lens, unless you really think you need the extra length, this is the lens for you.
I chose to give this 5-stars, because for the price and in its class, this is a really super lens. Compared to the Nikkor reference standard telezoom, okay, it is 4-stars. But that isn't a fair comparison.

The Nikon 55-200 f/4-5.6G AF-S DX VR lens did surprise me when it came to sharpness. It seems to be very sharp throughout it's focal length range. I have not made comparison photos to test the actual sharpness, since i am not a complete nerd, but there seems to be no real degradation visible to the naked eye.
This lens is not fast though. The VR (Vibration Reduction) does seem to compensate for the lack of aperture when shooting portraits inside, but in good lighting only. The autofocus is a bit slow and seems to have problems in low light on my Nikon D5000 at least. This lens is of course a DX lens or a crop lens, which means that it cannot be used on a FX (full frame) camera, like the D3 or D700, without the cameras defaulting into DX frame but we are talking about a completely different price range anyway.
Fantastic for outside portraits and has remarkably smooth background blur considering how small the aperture of this lens is.
Pros: Very sharp, beautiful background blur, light and small, nice to operate. Great for any daylight photography.
Cons: Slow lens, slow autofocus, will have problems auto focusing in low light conditions.

I love this lens. Nice sharp focus, and the VR feature helps keep the image steady.

This lens is great!
It is sharp. IQ is great. It feels crappy but I love the shots I get from it. Bokeh is suprisingly good. Believe it or not, in good lighting this lens makes really nice portraits. Focus works good enough for me during daytime. It weighs almost nothing and is therefore a good compromise for a wildlife lens for hiking. VR works pretty good. I doubt you will find anything comparable for the price.
Be aware that it is almost completely made of plastic, is a slow lens that doesn't qualify for low light use, it has a pretty slow autofocus, a crappy manual focus ring, and no manual focus override. If you need any of that, you need to spend more money on a heavier lens.

Very nice all around lense. But if you use it indoors alot you may want to use a lense that is more light sensitve. Otherwise even indoors it gives excellent photos.
