I am hoping to get some information to supplement the reviews I have read.
I am wondering about the comparative IQ, where their zoom ranges are similar, of the following 3 lenses. IQ interest only.
Nikkor 18-70mm f/3.5-5.6 G ED DX
Nikkor 18-200mm IF VRII DX
Cannon 17-40mm f/4 L
Thank you in advance for any replies.
Regards,
Jay

I can't answer about the Canon lens, but I have both Nikkor lenses you list. Image quality (in the range where they overlap) is quite similar. I compared some images with each once, and couldn't tell much of a difference one way or the other.
If you want a second opinion, here's a web site with excellent reviews of various Nikkor lenses (go to the "Lenses" link):
