[QUOTE="aZuMi, post: 164969, member: 10045"] Yes, 18-200mm will sacrifice quality. If you expect to shoot inside a building without flash, expect yourself to bump up the Iso and reduced image quality. But if you don't mind that, it's a perfectly good walk around lens. 50 1.8/1.4 will differ on background blur wherein 1.4 generally has smoother bokeh, but many tests show that 1.8 is a sharper lens and great bang for the buck. Another lens I was using before in DX was Sigma 17-70mm 2.8-4. There's an OS version now, but it's a great walk around lens with 2.8 @ 17mm. Other alternatives are 17-50mm 2.8 and 18-35 1.8 I mentioned. IMO, you shouldn't concern too much with 50mm< since you have a crop camera and 70-300mm. [/QUOTE]
