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.
