Thanks cb, I would say that my test was fairly casual so there's a ton of room for error...I'm also going to open up the apertures to try and expose more of the characteristics of each lens, just out of curiosity.

The 18-200 is meh....had one and it did okay from a walk around standpoint because of the range it covers but the quality is meh.   The 24-70 focuses a lot faster and will produce stunning results once stopped down to f/3.2 or better.   Just my opinion.
