It is true that you can counter distortion, but that always goes with a loss of resolution. It does not come for free. Of course, that may not really matter... but when people go on an on nowadays about how sharp e lens is/has to be, one should take the resolution loss due to distortion compensation into account too.



Personally I would prefer a D700 with 28-300 VR over an APS-C body with 18-200 VR anytime, since I have never been impressed by the performance of the 18-200 VR and the images I have seen from the 28-300 VR do not half bad. And you do over a stop advantage DOF wise with the full frame body.



Vieux loup, It might be interesting to travel with an 28-300mm VR and a Tokina 16-28mm f2.8, actually. How is that for a 2 lens set up...

I think it would be a great setup, but for the weight of the 16-28 compared to a prime. However, in terms of flexibility it would be unbeatable.<img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='B)' />
