This page is a collection of photo samples taken with the Nikon 300mm f/2.8G IF-ED AF-S VR Nikkor Lens, plus related image galleries, user pictures and other examples that I’ve come across in forums, online communities, blogs and related websites.
This should help in determining if the image quality of the 300/2.8 G VR meets your expectations.
Bear in mind that the majority of these photos are re-sized, and may have gone through post-processing, retouching or other edits. I just thought that it would be interesting to see, at a glance, what Nikon 300mm f2.8 VR owners and users are shooting with their lens.
Full-sized images, where available, will assist with judging the image quality.

Killdeer photos after the rain
JimPearce shared four excellent killdeer bird photos in the referenced forum post.
The 300/2.8 VR was mounted on a Nikon D2X, and the reach of the lens was extended via the use of a Tamron SP AF 1.4x Pro Teleconverter (TC).
