GREAT LENS! for SLR lenses

This lens is everything I need! When I first bought my Nikon D60 (my first DSLR) it had 2 lenses. 18-55mm VR and 55-200mm VR. I'm tired of switching lenses between shots. In addition, whenever you change lenses, there is always a risk of dust getting onto the focusing lens. I read many GOOD reviews about the Nikon 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 G ED-IF AF-S. VR DX Zoom Nikkor lens on Revain. The many good reviews of this lens made me buy it. I admit it's a little pricey. But I'm so glad I bought it anyway. From the day I put it on my D60, I've never had to remove/replace it with a 55-200mm lens when I needed to shoot long distances. It's been almost 30 days since I put it on my D60 and I'm having a lot of fun shooting with this lens (especially at the zoo). The lens takes great pictures! Overall I am very satisfied and glad I bought this lens for my D60. NOW I'm going to get rid of the 55-200mm VR lens and sell it on eBay. I do not need it anymore! One more thing, I bought this used Revain lens for $530. The first owner says he's only had this lens for 4 months and has just switched to a Nikon 80-400mm VR lens. If you don't want to spend $600-$700 on a NEW Nikon 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S VR DX Nikkor zoom lens. To be used. Ask the seller questions before making a purchase. Ask how long they've had the lens, why they're selling the lens, the condition of the lens, and if possible, ask for pictures! Hope my review helps!

Pros
