Again looking at the tests the 18-200, while having a centre sweet spot, its a bit soft at the edges and not a match in the 18-55 range for your current lens.
As Alex asks - what are you looking for that your current set up doesn't give you? |
Thanks for all the replies!
I will keep the 18-55 lens and wait until I can afford the 50mm. I had just heard and read on some sites, that the 18-55 lens I had was not very good in lots of ways and I really wanted to have the best lens that I could afford. But at the same time didn't want to lose the wide (although 18 is not super wide) angle aspect which I would have if I had just the 50mm.
Anyway, thanks again guys!!
