how good u expect the quality for a long range zoom, but this kind of range, the review on thsi lens is quite good..

I heard the price here is around RM1.6k

Anyway, i'll choose this over 18-200VR anytime.

Gadget freak- why do u choose over 18-200 Nikkor?? AFAIK, 18-200 wallops almost all the third party lenses in everything. Build, Image Quality, barrel, distortion n etc. Anyway this is what i read from Internet.

N i'm talking about apple to apple comparison, 18-200 Nik again 18-200 Sig and 18-200 Tam

are u sure???

talking about apple to apple, Tamron 18-250 (around RM1.6k) with Nikkor 18-200 VR(around 2.6k/2.7k).

both are wide zoom lens, both have same lousy distortion, IQ at wide end and tele end, chromatic abberation and vignetting.

for the price difference, u basically paying extra RM1k for VR and AF-S motor and if u are ok with it, then go ahead, for me not.

and since this is wide zoom, i'll get as far tele as i can since no matter what, the IQ still sux, at this Tamron tele until 250mm.

^i have an 18-200VR and have yet to experience lens creep, maybe because all my shots are handheld.

ya, if you were to get the tamron 18-250, enjoy handholding it at 250 in lowlight tongue.gif
