You do have to appreciate that I'd come from using a Panasonic FZ20 camera with a 12x stabilized zoom so this brings me back to a similiar capability with all the advantages of the Nikon D50. Two things I've noticed, both which can be corrected easily in post-processing. Some vignetting at highter zooms and pincushion distortion at wide angle - but it is only on some subject matter that you notice this. Otherwise perfect for my requirements. Denis Hi Greg,

I also have the D50 with 18-55mm kit lens, 70-300 zoom, and 50mm 1.8D prime. I'm thinking about the 18-200 as an all-round replacement but very interested in hearing about your 'real-world' experience, in particular the value of the VR. Any comments appreciated, cheers. Greg.
