I am an amateaur photographer and just broke my plastic mount lens on a Nikon D200. As im searching to find a new lens, i find two great ones! Technically, theyre the same thing, but one is plastic and sells for 400 and the other is metal and sells for almost 900.Im a student, so price really matters to me, but taking into account that im shopping for a new lens because i just broke my plastic mount changes the matter. Do you think i should buy the metal one or be cheap?
Added (1). Mr. Gimli, To answer your question the metal mount is the AF-S DX Nikkor 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 ED VRII and the plastic mount is the AF-S DX Nikkor 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6 ED VR
So their pretty freaking close.
