Vantage Point

Finally, I was able to get my prize from Columbia Digital Sales Company (CDSC) in Quezon City, it is an AF-S Nikkor 18-200mm f3.5-5.6 G ED VR which I won in a raffle held during the Grand Launch of Nikon Club Philippines last Sunday.

I believe that it was Nikon who introduced the 18-200mm focal length, it was (or maybe still is) a popular choice for hobbyist since it’s a good walk around lens, a wide angle at 18 & a telephoto at200mm.

It’s a good lens when you travel & will not face much of a low light situation, with this lens, you can cover almost every focal length that you’ll be needing thus getting away with the troubles of changing the lens.

Of course I have tested my lens, I sat in front of our makeshift garden & covered the most common focal length (18, 50, 135 & 200) & here are the results.

At 18mm (Nikon D70, 1/250″, f8, ISO200)


At 50mm (Nikon D70, 1/250″, f8, ISO200)

At 135mm (Nikon D70, 1/250″, f8, ISO200)

At 200mm (Nikon D70, 1/250″, f8, ISO200)

I fell in love with it after I saw the result, I love the bokeh, the sharpness & everything about it. Truly, the best things in life is free. Hehehehe!
