The Nikon Nikkor 18-200mm vibration reduction zoom len arrived. This lens is probably the most sought after lens for any of the Nikon DSLRs. An easy way to tell is to call up your local camera shop and ask if they have the lens. The usual response is them laughing at you because the wait is usually a few months. Trust me, I just had that happen to me in OR twice. The demand is so great you can sell the lens for easily $100 - $200 more than the retail price. The lens actually costs more than our camera. :) You can read reviews of the lens from Ken Rockwell or from David Pogue's blog.
So you might be asking, how do the pictures turn out? Well, our D40 had a problem with the flash not firing so it's back at Nikon being fixed. Hopefully it'll be back soon. We've waited 2 months, what's another week or two.
Here's the lens fully extended.
