New lens for my Nikon D50

Mr Enigma
Hi all

The original lens for the D50 (18-55mm) has just died on me. I'd like to replace it with something not to expensive.

Any suggestions & recommendations for lens's and suppliers?

Regards

Stephen
 
Stephen,

If you'd like to get a zoom on a budget the 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5 DX Nikkor is the Nikon glass to get.

(I moved your post over to Tony's shiny, new photo room.)

Stephen,

Depending on what you think expensive is, i'd consider the Sigma 18-50 F2.8. Very sharp, sensible build. Lovely results. 1.5 stops faster than the 18-70 suggested above which might be important depending on what you expect from a lens.

Joe/Stephen - I bought one of those on the Tottenham Court Road in London with the S5 - its what I took my so called Eggleston photo with

They've recently updated it with an HSM motor too and in the UK you can get it for less than £300.
