Your take on the 18-200mm zoom?

I find it quite nice between 30-100mm, above 100mm it gets softer.

Did not use it much wide yet.

This was shot with 22mm (perspective corrected in CS5:

I think this lens would need a tripod collar? Did you use it from a tripod and how did it work.

Assuming the question is for me, no, it was handheld. I'm a total beginner at photography with NEX5 being my first non-P&S camera. At least these shots will show you what's the worst this lens can do at the hands of a newbie :p

I plan to take regular photo field trips with my young son around town, and the sel18200 is the only E-mount lens I take for AF. The reason is I want to leave room for other MF M-mount lenses in my small bag so I can practice with them.

Sorry about that, I didn't know the Amazon S3 link was only temporary. I've uploaded the images to my album here on GetDPI, but I think there's a file size and dimension limit here, so it will automatically resize them.

I believe DPR albums will allow you to download the original size image:
