[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 804310, member: 48483"] [USER=50197]@Clovishound[/USER] He is using a D50, which has to be getting near 20 years old now. Low resolution crop-sensor body. A 28mm lens would be full-frame 42mm equivalent. Not that wide at all. Later model 18-55mm lenses with vibration-reduction would be my route to go. Sharpness to spare for that older body, and on the used market they are almost giving them away because they are so common. The 55-200mm was the designed compliment for the 18-55mm and are fairly cheap to buy used also. But I think you have the telephoto range well covered already. The 70-300mm lenses I have had were kind of soft though with less contrast than I felt was needed. I really do not know if the 55-200mm would be better in that regard. [/QUOTE]
