I know you've all been waiting for this one <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

You may wonder why this is published. Well, it's because of some sort of nostalgia <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> The 18-55 VR was supposed to be my first review here on PZ. It's the lens Klaus used to "teach" me lens testing. But allthough the results were there for years, the actualy review was postponed again and again for several reasons.



Unlike some other D200-based DX reviews, which we simply cancelled after the D7000 was announced, I wanted this one to get published. Just to cure that little itch I feel everytime I touch the lens <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Well, as a D200 shooter this can't go without a thank you to Marcus and Klaus too. The end of a long era in Nikon lens/body testing.



I acquired this lens' non-VR brother when I got my D40, and have to say that as a travel lens it's hard to beat. I've worked and travelled in countries where security is not up to west European standards, and for such a small outlay in money one can feel happier with such a cheap-to-replace lens sitting in the car, hotel bedroom, etc. With care, results can be very, very good from a very lightweight setup.



Thanks again, boys.
