Sigma 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 DC OS HSM
$580.00
Released October, 2008
The Pros:Very versatile lens at 18-200mm (up to 11x zoom). All-metal mount to camera body: extremely robust. Convenient on/off switches for OS and autofocus.
The Cons:Image stabilizer makes a loud periodic noise - bad for taking videos, you have to turn off OS for that. Overly sensitive focus adjuster ring (very hard to get the focus right, should have more play).
