Friend of mine recently ordered two 18-200 Nikkors and is expecting UPS

I checked the supplier he used but at the moment it is out of inventory.

I'm going to have to borrow one of these lenses.

Harry,
Do some A/B comparisons with some of your other lens and see how they
compare. It looks to me that is it one hell of a tourist lens, but
really isn't meant to compete against a prime lens or a some of the pro
zoom lens with much smaller range.

My Ultra wide 12-24 is expected on Thursday.
