On another note....
Nice resolution, from edge to edge. Is that a true Nikkor, or one from
another mfr. that they put their name on? I'm looking for a similar
lens.
Max, as far as I know Nikon only rebadges the 70-300G lens and some of
their Chinese built lenses have poor build quality, but most others are
true Nikkors. The 18-200VR seemed too good to be true, but it does have
some issues. Distortion at the wide end, some light falloff in the
corners and it's not as sharp as my 1700 dollar 70-200VR lens of
course. But for general photography and a travel lens it's the best
lens on the market. My copy is sharp and contrasty. Bokeh is somewhat
poor, AF is very fast. It's a small lens, but it more than doubles it's
length when zoomed to 200mm. It's also capable 1:4 lifesize close focus
at 12 inches!!! It's really an amazing lens. Cost is around 750.00.
They are very hard to get with a long waiting list at present.
