Hi,
I got a D3000 a few months ago, and I've been using the 18-55 lens that came with it, with nice results.
Recently I was looking for other lenses and I saw there are some not-so-expensive lenses (where I live we get 2x to 3x the USA price because of taxes and well... elitism from pro photo shops).
So, I was looking at the 55-200 from Nikon. Will that lens be a substantial upgrade from my 18-55? How much "closer" will that lens "bring" my subject? I ask this because the only lens I ever used was the 18-55 so I have no idea how these two compare.
Second question, and this is even more newbieish:
Let's say I have a 18-200 and a 55-200. When both lenses are at 200, do they show the same picture? I dont know if i'm explaining myself. Does the 200/18 or 200/55 relation have anythig to do with how close objects will appear when looking through the lens?
Thanks
