I think this where I need to respond to your reply to me, somewhere above in the thread.

I believe you're on the wrong track in saying that because you're not getting what you hoped for from the S5 Pro + Nikkor 28-200, all you have to do is get a "better" lens.

What I think you should do, is slow down a bit, get to know your new camera, what it can and can't do with the lens you already have and then decide if it's going to be a camera you will use, or not. I can almost guarantee that even if you were sent the best ever lens made in Nikon mount, you would be dissatisfied - until you have learned to use it properly.

Here are a couple of shots taken with my Nikkor 28-200 AF-G f/3.5-5.6 -which may be what you have, but I don't know, I don't think you've actually given us your lens's full name yet. On a Nikon D700.

@200mm FL

@100mm FL

The ambulance was maybe 100 -150 metres away from where I was sitting.

Yes. zoom lens quality is ok:) i figure it out this. 28-200 is not bad lens but you have to care when to shoot and where because you have to care about shutter speed and not take blur images. i think that this lens not have image stabilizer yes? today i test a nikon 50mm f1.8 and i am very happy with the output.
