nikon 18-200vr ???? Anyone have regrets for getting it ???

[petpoor]

I am curious if anyone has bought this lens then regretted it for one reason or another??? I got a message today that my name is up on the list, but I did not get home to get the message till after the store was closed so I am hoping that they still have it in the morning. But before I ran to get it was looking for some input from people to see if they have it and regret not getting different lens instead.

Thanks,
Tom

After reading the review on Ken Rockwell's site, he seems to love the lens and wont take it off his camera.

If you find any that is availlable in the country other than Ebay, please tell me.
I'm on a waiting list for this lense forever!

I ordered this lens from ritz on 1/31 and got it 3 weeks later. It's a great overall wide angle and zoom lens and I don't use tripod and found this lens very good while chasing subject. Macro mode not that great and waiting to pick up a macro lens now.

I don't think you will regret gething this lens and I wasn't looking at the macro mode when ordered the lens but been using this lens quite a bit since I started my tank in March and you can see some of the pictures on th TBS forum:
