Default Tried out KM18-200mm

Hi folks, i try out the KM 18-200mm yesterday, the results was a bobo..

Speed tested was..
The sharpest was..
The weight was.. too light.. i think there was no glass in it, all plastic?

All i can say is that tis lens was made to travel around.. was small and light which was good! At 200mm , F-stop was 6.3 so it was slow....too me , i rather use the 75-300mm far end is still at f5.6. Anyone getting tis better think again..price i was not sure, i think it the only one in SG. The 11-18mm is not out yet..

This is actaully one of the lens that i have been waiting for... my other alternatives will be the KM17-35 non-g.... to accompany my KM28-75 and KM75-300...

I hope it turns out to be good... still remember that day where I carry 2 lens and went for a hike... end up struggling...
