[QUOTE="Elliot87, post: 341980, member: 25183"] I actually had a DX 55-200 but decided to upgrade it for the 70-300 as I wanted the extra reach and better glass for wildlife photography. At the time I wasn't really thinking about a walk around holiday lens, so when my friend made me an offer for it I sold it, figuring he'd be putting it to better use. Also he got me into photography and helped teach me the basics so was happy to "give" him something in return. In any case what I'd really like is just one lens to take on holiday, which would need to cover wider than 55. With luck I'll be getting a 35 1.8G on monday for my birthday, if not I'll buy one. That combined with the 70-300 and my feet for zooming will cover most situations, I'll just have to put up with lens switching and carrying the hefty 70-300. Hopefully I'll get the opportunity to try out some of these super zooms and will look for further reviews and recommendations on here. [/QUOTE]
