QUOTE(SkyBlue99 @ Apr 5 2010, 10:37 PM) edministrator, it is ok.. bt as u can see at 200mm it lacks of sharpness already due to it;s magnification. but it's still a good allrounder most likely due to ISO1600. Here's another 200mm with ISO200:  200mm, f/5.6, 1/500s, ISO200  200mm, f/5.6, 1/640s, ISO200 This post has been edited by edministrator: Apr 5 2010, 10:55 PM |

QUOTE(SkyBlue99 @ Apr 5 2010, 10:55 PM) do u have any with large file size.. from the pics i've seen in large formats, i find it still soft.  200mm, f/5.6, 1/500s, ISO200 click on thumbnail for higher resolution. This post has been edited by edministrator: Apr 5 2010, 11:07 PM |

QUOTE(CloudKee @ Apr 5 2010, 10:57 PM) OH yes, it`s okay for me..... 2 versions of 18-200mm are using same VRII technology. The main difference is the new revision has zoom lock, to prevent lens creeping and gold VR stamping instead of red. optically both are the same.the price you stated is VR or VR II? |

QUOTE(SkyBlue99 @ Apr 5 2010, 11:15 PM) exactly many reviews says D300/D300s + 18-200mm VR is a reporter's/traveller's deadly combo, due to D300s ability to shoot low noise @ hi iso to compensate this slower variable aperture lens   |

QUOTE(CloudKee @ Apr 5 2010, 11:20 PM) But already got 80-200....still need? then what u need is D90 and above range of bodies instead of D40-D5k rather than wasting time one purchasing mediocore lenses.This post has been edited by edministrator: Apr 5 2010, 11:25 PM |

just get AFS 35mm f/1.8 , will behave like 50mm on our crop sensor body. (1.5 x 35mm = 52.5mm)

QUOTE(SkyBlue99 @ Apr 5 2010, 11:45 PM) I reporter doesn't need that much of a sharp image if they're job r like stalking etc etc. What if you're doing pro modelling or wedding or event specialization? U can't exact a soft image to be used for large prints to begin with no? agree, specific tasks requires specific gears to cater the needs. users needs to understand their shooting style before giving in to their purchasing impulse. |

QUOTE(jyhy @ Apr 28 2010, 04:43 PM) but it can't take much of bokeh shots? depends on how and what you shoot. if you want easy bokeh, you'll need big aperture lenses like the 50mm or 85mm f/1.8 / f/1.4, etc. |
