Nikon 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED DX AF-S Nikkor
7 out of 10 points and recommendedsharp, light, smallslow autofocus, not good for action photographyBought this and used it at downhill mtb event. Reverted to 18-70 as it was missing too many shots.

Nikon 12-24mm f/4G ED-IF DX AF-S Nikkor
8 out of 10 points and recommendedBrilliant landscape and interiors lensbit soft in the corners, not exactly value for moneyBought this as I missed my 24/2.8 on Nikon F. Not regretted it, but it is not perfect, soft corners at some settings, noticeable distortion at 12mm, cheap plasticky feel, expensive. When I got it only other option was bulbous Sigma, however this thing is not exactly small either. I'd be interested to see how Tokina and Tamron, new Sigma do in comparison.
