Nikon 18-200mm VR I

The Jack of all trades but master of none. With this lens there is an exception to be made. Yes I know it can't be used for professional portraits or shooting sports but most people who buy a DSLR aren't professionals. The Nikon 18-200mm VR is one of my all time favorite lenses simply because it is so versatile. I always recommend it to someone who wants to buy a camera and they have always been happy with their pictures.

It is relatively small compared to most lenses on the market and is light enough to carry around all day. It is unfortunately not very sharp wide open and doesn't have great contrast but that can be fixed in post processing.

VR is probably one of the most usefull inventions in modern day photography. For people who are new to photography this is a must have since it will save them from many blurred pictures. It also allows you to capture scenes that would previously not have been possible without a tripod.

The only real downside to the Nikon 18-200mm VR lens is that you won't want to take it off your camera and experiment with other lenses which is really a must if you wish to learn more about photography.
