Outstanding 18-200 lens. I tried the Nikon and Tamron equivilants and did not like either of them as much as this one. It's smaller, lighter, cheaper, and sharper. Great deal!

I love the range on this lens. It is a good all-around lens to carry for vacationing and works well in the studio.

I use this lens for weddings, infant shoots, family sessions, engagement shoots, and my personal family snapshots.

If you don't really care about the sharpness of your image then this lens is fine for you.

I bought this as a cheap lens for a travel camera. I was very pleasantly surprised by the image quality.

This is the best 18-200 lens you can get. I've used the Nikon 18-200 VR and the Tamron 18-200, and this one beats both of them. It's smaller, lighter, more compact, more stable, and less expensive (by far) then those other lenses, and it doesn't creep relentlessly like the Nikon does. It's also much smaller, lighter, and less expensive then the Nikon. Thumbs up.

I was on a trip to the Galapagos,found this was a great lens that could do it all from landscapes to wildlife.I was a little leery about the auto focus speed,it was fast didn't miss a shot.I was happy with the clarity of the pictures from 18mm to200mm,just a nice all around light weight lens.

Only problem is at 200mm you will get vignetting and for 100 dlls more i wold rather get the OS HSM also the focusing system is loud. There is no much difference between this lens and the Nikon 18-135 very small difference for those 65mm

Excellent "vacation" lens. Focal length range makes it easy to have a single lens that works for a wide variety of situations. Stopped down 1 (or more) at either end of the focal length give excellent results. Even when used wide open results are very sharp. Focus is very fast & only hunts at the very extreme ends of it's use (full zoom & very dim light).

This lens makes picture taking simple. I love the fact that you don't have to continue to change lenses. I would highly recommend this lens to anyone interested in photography. Great choice, great price!

Sigma Corporation is pleased to announce the launch of the new 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 DC for Nikon. This high zoom ratio lens, designed exclusively for digital SLR cameras, covers wide angle to telephoto focal lengths. The built-in motor is capable of autofocusing with all Nikon DSLR cameras. Two SLD (Special Low Dispersion) lenses and two Aspherical glass elements provide excellent correction for all types of aberration. Sigma's super multi-layer coating reduces flare and ghosting and provides high image quality throughoutthe zoom range. The compact and lightweight construction of 70mm (2.8") in diameter, 75.6mm (3.0") in length and 395g (13.9oz) makesit ideal for field work. This lens has a minimum focusing distance of 45cm (17.7") and a maximum magnification of 1:4.4. An inner focusing system also eliminates front lens rotation, making this lens particularly suitable for using the petal lens hood and circular polarizing filters. A zoom lock switch mechanism is provided to prevent the lens from creeping due to its own weight.
