[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 124563, member: 3903"] The 55-200 is a DX lens though. The OP was looking for a full frame (FX) lens. Paul, if money is tight, you can try to get a Tamron 28-200 or 28-300 on the bay. I got one for 125 $ when I first got my D700 and to this day it's still one of my go to lens for walkabouts. It's very light and sharp enough for an all around lens. Since then I got the better Nikon 2.8 zooms, but when I went on vacations and didn't want to carry all the weight, this is the lens I took. If you want to see what it can do, have a look at my Vietnam 2012 album in my gallery. There are also some Nikons 28-135 or 28-200 both older models that can be brought pre-owned that can do the job for you. Best of luck getting "THE BARGAIN LENS". :) [/QUOTE]
