I have a D3100 with the standard 18-55, and I now want a zoom lens. I can buy a Tamron 70-300 f4-5.6 di ld macro for 109.00, or a Nikon 55-200 f4-5.6 afs vr dx lens for 123.00. The Tamron is  a bit longer zoom but might not be as good quality, and it says it is a macro lens, so would it not be any good for long zooms? Any ideas on any other makes would help, too. This will be my first extra lens purchase, and for a while, too, so I don't want to waste the money on something not suitable.</p></blockquote><p></p>
