appreciate it man..

Im looking into getting me that Nikkor 24-120VR.. after that will be that Sigma 10-20mm..

No, Save up and get the 18-200VR well worth it, and then go for the 10-20mm.

My next will be the 10-20mm, and then the 50-500mm

I already have a 55-200mm VR i just want something basically to do shoots with.. the 18-200mm VR would be great but price is steep..

Is VR Nikon's top of the line or something?

VR just stands for Vibration Reduction which help to steady the lens 2-3stop higher than what you are on.. basically allowing you to get a steadier shots at higher shutter speeds..

No definitely not, they do offer it on some of their top of the line lenses. But you can also get it on the cheapies. The lens I got was only 179.99 at Wolf. I was really surprised because they actually had the cheapest price of all the places I checked. (Showcase, Amazon, B&H, etc.)

Ah, okay, like Canon's IS (image stabilization).

That's a first, dude. They are usually the most expensive.

I had a similar experience with the Sigma 10-20mm lens. The price difference was marginal between picking it up at Wolf and buying mail-order so I went to Wolf.

Since I try not to post in this thread without posting a picture, here is a night shot of some junk by the road

How do you like the 10-20mm?

It is a great lens. I like the distortion when taking up-close shots of an entire building. I have only used it once so I can't say if that will eventually get on my nerves but so far it is cool. I posted a couple pictures from the lens:

this shot is very noisy, seems like your ISO was high.. also seem like it was shot too close for the kit 18-55mm to focus on what you wanted.. im guessin you was tryin to get the face of the horn button and not the ring around the button in focus. Keep shooting homie..

Either the ISO was high or he saved it as a GIf

*EDIT no its the ISO setting
