[QUOTE="KWJams, post: 67918, member: 1926"] Turns out that I needed a kit lens after all so the 18-105mm D90 lens will serve that purpose. When I sold my D5000 it included the 55-200mm lens and I kept the 18-55mm kit lens to use on the new D5100. Well the lady who I sold it to let her husband take it to the top of a hill to get some pictures of their son climbing on his motorcycle. Something went wrong and the camera bag strap tangled with a bike and ripped it off his shoulder and the camera with the 200mm lens tumbled all the way to the bottom. Didn't break the glass or the camera body, but the 200mm was jammed up and will not focus anymore. I put the 55mm on her camera and all is fine -- except her husband will need to do some serious extra effort to get out of the dog house. Does anyone know if this small manual focus ring on the 18-105mm lens is supposed to be motor driven? [/QUOTE]
