 | | Stop debating and just buy it | September - 07 - 2010 | | |
by SoCal from San Diego, CA
Like many of you, I did the two lens thing for the last couple of years. The whole time I've been debating on whether to buy an 18-200mm because of price and the semi-mixed reviews. Happy to say that I purchased the 18-200mm VRII and could not be happier.
The good:
* One lens...enough said
* Will satisfy 99% of non-professional photographers
* Takes good photos in all lights. I use a SB-600 speedlight which is awesome, so I have not noticed the low lighting issues
* Did I mention you will only have one lens now? No more tourist Dad with a huge camera bag in tow
The bad:
* Adds some weight to your camera. For the pros, this is normal. For the rest of you, you will get some more bulk and weight. But the weight gives it a more professional dimension and balance
Like I said above, stop debating and buy this lens. You can sell your old lens on eBay!!!

I read alot of mixed reviews before buying this from Best Buy. I learned that even though a lens might get bad reviews, you should still check it out for yourself. This lens is on my Nikon D90 right now, I also own the 50mm 1.8, and the 85mm 1.8, but the 18-200mm VR 2 is my favorite. This is a sharp lens, contrary to what some have wrote. If I showed you the photos from my photo shoot from today, you would think I took it with a Nikon D3 or a Canon 5D mark or something. I'm a strobist, so I shoot with lights and all, but if your shooting at home with low lights, then of course your not going to get the most out of this lens. This is a wonderful lens, I promise you that, I don't have any ties to Nikon, they didn't put me up to this...I wish they was hooking me up though, but their not. Slap this baby on your camera and you won't take it off for a minute.

I would consider myself an advanced amateur in photography. I have been shooting pics since 1976, using a variety of cameras. I started with the Nikon F2A, and I have progressed to the D300. A diverse group of Nikon lens have accumulated also. My last purchase was a Nikon 28-200 in the 300 dollar range.
The 28 was just not enough for wide angle shooting. Thus began the search for more. I had read the reviews for the 18-200 VR, and it seemed to be the answer. Except for one thing: the price.
But, I gave in and made the purchase. Smart move. This one lens replaces almost all my existing inventory(save the 70-300). I have shot a couple hundres pics, and any doubts are now gone.
Yes, the price is pretty steep for the average Joe, and there is that much talked about lens creep in the middle range(around 135). But I don't shoot a lot of pics straight up or down. Probably most others don't either.
The build quality is high. The lens tube is plastic,but appears to be of a very high quality(it is hard to tell it is not metal). And for a first time user, the VR is amazing. Seems almost like magic.
The most impressive quality to me is the clarity and color rendition. This lens is better than any previous Nikon product I have owned, hands down. Some of the reviews have questioned the sharpness. No problem here. Again, it outperforms all my other lens. Unless you are incredibly demanding, I think you will find this to be the lens to leave on the camera almost 100 per cent of the time. I have.
I would heartily recommend this product. The price is higher than average, but it will replace 2 or problably 3 of your current lens. No toting a box or bag to carry all of them. And the weight is not an issue for me. For what you get in one lens, it is well worth a few extra ounces on the camera. Buy this and move on. I don't think anyone will regret it. I didn't.

by M. Molton
The focal range is nice for a one lens outfit, but the zoom ring is way too small. If you have big hands you will only fit you thumb and index finger on the rubber grip ring. It just did not feel right for me and I returned it for that reason. I use the 18-105mm VR and the 70-300MM VR instead and they are much more comfortable. Nobody ever mentioned this information and it is just as important as all the technical talk if you are spending $700+ on a piece of gear that you will keep and and use alot.

by Christopher R. Foltz (coasteraddict) from Chicago, IL
For those of us who like to travel, or like to be able to carry one lens, this is perfect for us. I wouldn't even call it an amateur lens, I would say semi-pro, it is not metal, but other than that it shoots high quality images. Just the ability to go on vacation or anywhere without having to carry multiple lens is a joy, though for us DX shooters, I would suggest picking up a wide angle to fill the void in that area. It is slightly heavy if you are used to having a kit 18-55, 18-105, 55-200 lenses, but you will get used to it quickly and I feel it helps with steadiness and gives a better feel to the camera. As it has been said previously, the only difference between this and the VR version is the added lock which I have not seen mine creep with the lock off so save yourself a few dollars and get the original.
