Im about to buy a D80 camera, and im looking for two different lenses. One all around one, and one for macro.I really never zoom, but i really like to take makro, hdr, portaits etc. For the All around lense ive been looking for a 28-105mm, would that be bad or could you recommend something else?Picture is from my IXUS900TIEXIF data available.

Nikon 18-200 VR for all-roundand something like a 105mm dedicated macro lens
>>83697Isnt that more of a zoomlense?
>>83698You're confusing telephoto for zoom. The D70's kit lens 18-70mm is a great all around zoom lens. They go for fairly cheap, depending on luck and location.
>>83699If he was referring to the 105mm macro than yeah, he's confusing telephoto for zoom. But the 18-200mm was also mentioned and that is a zoom.
>>83697agreed on the 18-200 VRIt is still the only lens I have for mine (had it since May). I love the thing. The only addition I am planning at the moment is a 50mm 1.4
