Well, I beg to differ... well, partly. I have a Nikon D40, its kit lens, a bag, and a Sigma 55-200mm F/4-5.6 lens in the sale (is this the one you're talking about?), and I love every single thing about them. It cost me £400 for everything, and that includes "essentials" (memory card, tripod etc).Unfortunately, this hobby is super expensive sometimes.
I could have gone with super-duper F/2.8 lenses that would have cost me a fortune, but I didn't, because I figured it would be unnecessary unless I was interested in going pro. It's all I NEED. It's not what I WANT, but then what is, apart from a massive debt :greenpbl:.
Anyway, I would recommend that Sigma 55-200. It's just my gut feeling to be honest, and is nothing to do with the fact that I have one. Try them both out and see which one you like.
