[QUOTE="KWJams, post: 23344, member: 1926"] I don't do a lot of close ups so I went with the 55-200mm Nikkor lens for my D5000 and then pretty quickly discovered that most of the real cool stuff was further away than I thought and got a 55-300mm Nikkor which I have really been enjoying. Just haven't figured out what to do with the 200mm lens? Sell it or keep it?? When taking pictures of people the 300mm lets me get in close without making them feel like I am too close and that is a big plus in my opinion because they don't act so restrained in showing emotions. With landscapes my goal is get a great shot but not fool myself into thinking it is the next cover for a magazine. The 300mm choked down to 55mm is basically just a smidgen above the kit lens' range. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
