Re: what nikon VR to buy?
Way too much overlapping glass with o distinctive benefits. How many of the lenses to you carry around at the same time on any given outing.
My advice, sell the following...
AF Nikkor 28-80 1:3.3-5.6G (F65)
AF-S DX Nikkor 18-55 1:3.5-5.6 G VR (D50&D70)
AF-S Nikkor 18-70 DX ED 1:3.5-4.5G(D50&D70)
third party:
Sigma 28-105 1:3.8-5.6 UC III (F65-D50-D70)
Sigma 28-200 1-3.5-5.6 DL Hyperzoom Macro (with build in lens creep)(F65-D50-D70)
Tamron (Tammy)28-200 1.3.8-3.6 Macro (AF Aspherical XR)(F65-D50-D70)
And buy a Nikon 18-200 DX VR
I suspect that the two "macro" lenses are not true macros, so keep one if you must, but if you really want Mi(a)cro, get the Nikon 105 VR.
Lastly, if there is ever a chance you will move to full frame, I would suggest that you might want to keep either the Tamron or Sigma 28-200 if they are not DX/DC leneses.
