Nikkor 28-300mm

Calling all Hedgehoggers! Took delivery of a Nikkor 28-300mm on 9/28/2012 from B&H. Don't know if this is normal, but the focus ring seems abnormally stiff when I rotate it. Then when I get to the 200mm mark there is a hitch to the 300mm mark. When I compare it to my 18-105mm that came with my D7000, the 18-105mm is much smoother all the way through. B&H is on "holiday", so I can't talk to them. Has anyone encountered this with this lens out of the box? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Nikkor 18-300 DX vs 28-300 FX

Thanks for all the input people. Since I mostly use the long range of a lens(I mostly shoot sports and cannot afford a f/2.8) and the price difference is not that much, I think I'll go with the 28-300 and get the extra boost at the end that the crop factor gives me.

Nikkor 18-300 DX vs 28-300 FX

Ok, all you hedgehoggers. I need some input. I have a Nikon D7000 with the 18-105 kit lens. Don't see a full frame any time in the near future. So, should I go with the 18-300 DX or the 28-300 FX and take advantage of the crop factor which would give me a 42-450. Also, aren't FX lenses better quality than DX lenses? I would appreciate any and all opinons. Thanks!

Camera Equipment

I have a Manfrotto legs and pistol grip head and love it! The head is quick to adjust and rock solid.

Nikon 70-200 f/2.8 vs 80-200 f/2.8

Calling all you Nikonians. Need help, please. Besides the VR and range, is their enough difference to justify over twice the cost? Thanks. OK, GO!

Refurbished Nikon Cameras

Thank you for responding.

I've also read that the D7000 has auto focus issues. Does anyone have a D7000 with these problems?

I currently own a D3100, which I enjoy using. But, my wife has become interested in photography (and I encourage her). So now I need another camera. And I would like to upgrade.

I'm a conversation police officer, which offers many opportunities for some very unique photos, therefore I need a camera that will withstand the rigors of my job.

I have had my D7000 for about 7 months without any problems. Could you be more specific on what you read on the auto focus? Thanks.
