[QUOTE="480sparky, post: 478832, member: 15805"] All lenses must conform to one fact: They're an exercise in compromise. All-in-one lenses (aka 'superzooms') will not have the image quality that a zoom with a smaller ratio has. The more a lens tries to do, the less it does any of it well. As a general rule, a pair of lenses (say, 18-55 and 55-200) will provide better images than one single 18-200 zoom. That's the compromise. You only have to carry one lens with the 18-200, but you give up IQ. [/QUOTE]
