"Lens that makes photography a little easier"
I bought this lens after a massive amount of research, I wanted to find a lens that compromised of two possible lens into one big lens so it would be easier to carry around. I also was feeling very limited by the current lens I had which was Canon 18-55mm basic kit lens.
Pros:
- Cheap
- good build
- good quality photos
- large focal range
- no front element rotation
Cons:
- A bit soft at 200mm

Sigma 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 DC Review
This is one of the cheapest lens in this category, and it's available in Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Sigma and Sony mounts. It doesn't offer image stabilisation, and so is best suited to cameras with on-board IS.
Pros:
- Price
- great chromatic aberration control
Cons:
- Inconsistent performance
- low resolution at 200mm

One of the limitations with a kit lens is that you don't have a great focal length range, especially at the telephoto end of the scale. This Sigma 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 is not only small and light but also has an impressive optical stabiliser built-in (Canon and Nikon fits).

For starters, anybody who expects stellar optical performance from a 11,1 zoom, better stop reading right now. It is not going to happen, not with this one, nor with the Nikkor. I got this lens in a hurry, because I needed an all-purpose lens to cover a spur-of-the-moment client event.
Pros:
- ? Solid build quality & finish
- surprisingly good focus speed and accuracy
- ? Overall pretty decent optical performance
- except at the very long end (in my sample)
- ? Pretty unobtrusive internal focus
- no rotating front-end.
Cons:
- ? Chromatic aberration and purple fringing on highlight edges throughout the focal range, especially wide open
- This can, however, be easily corrected in post or even in-camera (select Nikon models), ? Pronounced barrel distortions at the wide end, some pin cushion in the medium to long focal...
