Since upgrading the the D90, I have my "old" D40 sitting on the shelf. My options are:
1. Keep the D40 as a backup. I am not a pro by any means- so this sounds a little counter productive to me.
2. Sell the D40 and kit lens for around $350, put that towards a Sigma 10-20, or Nikon 10-24 ($200 more).
3. Sell the D40, kit lens, and 55-200mm VR for around $450-$500 and buy a used Nikon 18-200mm VR or new Sigma 18-200mm. Then start saving for a wide.
4. Something I am not thinking of (not really into macro at all right now)....
Right now, my photography is mainly of my family (mostly outdoors, but I hope to do some portraits soon)... but with warmer weather arriving; I plan on getting out hiking and doing more landscapes. I like the idea of adding the wide lens for a more creative look. The "all in one"-ness of the 18-200mm is very appealing as well, especially with a toddler.
