Hello,
I bought a Nikon D40 kit a year ago and decided that it is time to upgrade the lens to something a bit more 'powerful'. I was thinking of a lens in the 200mm region, but the sheer variety is a bit stunning. One thing I noticed were VR and DX variations of most lenses and big differences in price. What should I be looking for when shopping for a lens and does anybody have any recommendations? I am still a beginner and have no specific preference in what I take pictures of, so I am looking for an all-comers lense that will have the most use in a variety of situations. Any help or resources would be appreciated.
