Hi to all pros.....
i hav a small dilemma rite here. . see if anyone can help me..^^
i own a d70s , kits lens, 50mm f1.8.

i hav a 1k now and i wanted to buy additional lens for my trip to italy..
well the 18-200mm vr nikon is a travel lens..but its too expensive. .
personally i need a wide angle lens to capture building and also a tele lens.

thiking of sigma 10-20mm and 55-200mm vr nikon.

do there any alternatif ? to get all in one? example any converter or what? newbie here^~haha
 

Can get a 2nd hand 18-200mm VR from the B&S section for around S$1K. :)
 

Try to sell of your 18-70 kit lens and get the 18-200VR, I'll do it immediately if i were you! You won't want to change lens when you're on the go right? Especially if the tour is a guided tour and not those OTOT ones.

No regrets choosing the Nikon. :thumbsup:
Fish Eye lens. ;)
 

hey hey what's wrong with the present set up!?
the kit lens has a decent range.
& the 50 is a fast short tele!

what can you miss with your present configuration?
a speedlight maybe?

The 18-200mm lens will overlap your 18-70mm. It totally replaces the range already, why would you want to still use your kit lens after getting a 18-200mm? 2nd body? Sentimental value?
 

sell your kit lens, add that to your 1k, i think you can get a new 18-200VR
