The 18-200 is poor. It has a very long range but that's it. It has worse sharpness CA vignetting and massive distortion at the wide angle compared to the above listed much cheaper lenses. It suffers from lens creep, but at least it has VR, thank god too I mean there must be something in this to even remotely justify the cost.
Sabbath999: Thanks for another great answere, I really Like answeres that explain things and then give opinions. You do have a very good point about waiting a year or so for the new Nikons to come out before I upgrade. Now, if I can afford the 70-300mm VR do you think I should get it over 55-200mm VR? Thanks
Sure they do:but they dont make AF-S primes
How wide do you want to go and what's your budget.I just picked up the 55-200mm VR lens from adorama.com yesterday refurbished for $149.95 on sale. I know you were saying you did not like the build quality but for that price you might change your mind
2166B Nikon 55mm - 200mm f/4-5.6G ED-IF AF-S DX VR (Vibration Reduction) Autofocus Zoom Lens - Refurbished by Nikon U.S.A.
Next I want some kind of wide angle lens for my D40 do you have any reccomendations?
