    Where did you manage to find it at that price?

    I went into Jacobs today and was about to buy it at #130, then the chap said he'd got the price wrong and it was #160, so I didn't bother. Jessops was #160 too (price match) and the online place in that link has none in stock.

    Most the pics in my galleries are taken with my Tamron f4-5.6 70-300mm lens, exception being the HDR shot taken with my IS18-55.

    You'll need one with a specific fit for your camera - Nikon lens for Nikon camera, Canon for Canon etc. I understand Fuji take Nikon lenses.

    Or if you buy from the other (non-camera) lens makers, such as Tamron and Sigma, they normally do lenses that you can buy with either a Nikon or Canon fit.

    Not sure about the others, such as Olympus, but no doubt someone a bit wiser than I am will be along soon to tell you.

    If you are looking at that 55-200mm Nikon lens mentioned above, it's a bargain at 130 from Camera Box, but they have limited stock, so you'll need to get a shift on. And make sure you get the vibration reduction (VR) lens, which costs 130, and not the non-VR one at 99.

    What camera have you got?
