I like the Nikkor 18-200 VR!. It seems to be a great all-in-one camera for landscapes up to great closeups!. A but pricey, but the VR and tremedous range make it a fabulous lens and it may be all you ever need!.

also, I strongly suggest you get a polarizer filter for it!. It makes sky and cloud shots have much deeper blues, nice contrast and a certain crispness!. i just got one for my Canon S3 and I'm having fun with it!.!.!. i put up a few shots of clouds over the Sandia's to demonstrate the filter!. living around new mexico and the west, i've been trying to improve landscape / scenery shots!.

A friend of mine recently picked up a D60 with the 18-200 VR and here's some samples of his stuff with that lens:

17-35 f2!.8
50 f1!.8
70-200 f2!.8
400 f2!.8

should cover everything and there are no DX lenses amoungst those so updating to FX in the future won't be a concern!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
