18-200 is a really nice lens making it THE ONLY lens you shall need all the time. I have used it for couple of years and had been very happy. Have not used other two so cannot compare with them. Based on people I know who used 18-200, all have been very happy. I can say that I have been quite surprised by the quality of images from this lens given that its a super range zoom.

The only reason I sold it was because I upgraded to full frame so did not have any use for it at that point.

Agree totally on the 18-200. It can produce excellent results & has great versatility.

I also have 24-105L, 70-200 2.8 MkII, & 100-400L, but still consider the 18-200 a very worthwhile lens to have on hand.
I'd only replace it if I could find a better lens with a similar range.
