Digital camera reviews of Nikon 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 G ED-IF AF-S VR DX Zoom-Nikkor Lens

Digital camera Review: Nikkor 18~200 VR DX lens
Summary: 4 Stars

All in all I am quite pleased and happy with this lens. It is one of the best "walk about" lenses I have ever owned. In one package I have dropped 2 lenses from my Felix The Cat black magic bag of tricks and my shoulder and back love it. However, it is not one of Nikon's sharpest lenses tho, but this is not saying it isn't, either. I use a Fuji S-5 and because this camera has a overly thick anti aliasing filter over the CCD chip, ALL lenses suffer a bit from a lack of sharpness. On my S-2 and or S-3 IRUV it IS quite sharp and so I forgive it. The color and DR is on par with many other lenses as well. Being used on a digital, of course many of these conditions can be tweaked a bit so instead of getting my [...] all up in a bunch I use and love the lens for what it can and does give me. 18mm to 200mm with a fast AF and nice VR and it is 'small' and light weight. A great all purpose lens I will enjoy for a long, long time (or until I get a full frame digital, for being DX it HAS to live on a APS-C chip sized camera).. Bummer..
