Finally bit the bullet and ordered a new lens for my camera. I'm happy with my 18-55mm kit lens that came with my D50, but I wanted a nice zoom without having to shell out a thousand bucks. I was going to go for the 18-200mm VR that Nikon put out this year, but those things have become so freaking popular there is a 6 month wait. So I decided to go for Nikon's new 70-300mm VR instead. It's a few hundred cheaper since it is intended to be a zoom lens and not replace the standard 18-70 range lenses, but it still retains all of the sexiness of the 18-200, including the wonderful vibration reducation (VR) feature that should make life better at 300mm without a tripod.
Unfortunately this thing doesn't come out until October, so I can just stare at it's pretty picture.
