Looks like Nikon 18-300mm 3.5-5.6 VR DX is on the way

[pRICE cUBE]

My speculation, it will perform similarly to the Tamron 18-270mm PSD VR and cost twice as much. I feel my 18-270 is superior to the nikon 18-200mm vr I used to have and the Nikon was more expensive while having less range.

No realease date, just the leaked image. My guess is it will be out within 6 months along with the D300s replacement.
