Is this a good Nikon lens?
here is the link to the camera lens that come along with a Nikon D40. http://www.nikonusa.com/Find-Your-Nikon/Product/Camera-Lenses/2156/AF-S-DX-Zoom-NIKKOR The deal I'm looking -55-200mm-f/4-5.6G-ED.html comes with two lenses: 18-55, and 55-200. I am a bit worried because I saw VR (Vibration Reduction) on page web.
The two lenses that packaging of the D40 kit lenses are fine for perfection that will serve you well. Do not worry about not having reduction function VR vibration. Photographers have been making great pictures for over 100 years without the latest electronic features like auto focus or automatic exposure or CCD digital … all of which have their D40. So do not worry about failing virtual reality goggles when you have more technology in D40 was possible or 50 or 10 years ago, 100. They made great photos with less then half of the capabilities of the D40 camera. You can too. When advanced, learned the proper technique and camera to take pictures constant with its kit lens, then you are ready to consider upgrading a VR lens and provides additional capabilities.
