I had this lens for one week, and it is perfect for travel,
and when you don t know what where you are going to take pictures,
the built quality is excellent (as sigma does usual)
and it is very compact and light for a large range lens.
just not very sharp pictures at 18mm,
but with this kind of lens it is well known
and it is still better than the kit-lenses 18-55mm that I have.
if you see the concurrence : bigger, more bulky,
sometime the telephoto-lens increase by itself if you chose the wrong position...
and it can resist if you want to change focal between 18 and 200mmm,
with this one: you have NOT these problems !!!
of course there you can find more rage (18-270 for example),
but for me 18-200 is enough and also it is more compact,
there is no stabilization and ultra-sonic focus but,
first, the stab is not needed if you have a Pentax SLR,
and second, the ultrasonic-focus is more expensive
and not always needed and increase the size of the lens.
for me this lens is excellent with my Pentax K10D and my Pentax k-x
.... and by the way, this lens is not expensive at all.Get more detail about Sigma 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 DC Lens for Pentax and Samsung Digital SLR Cameras.
