Yes. Or the new AF-s 35mm f1.8 and the 50mm f1.8 for about the same price as the 50mm f1.4. A good lens mostly and a wide range, my 18-200mm is slow and a little soft in low light and a little distorted all around. The 50mm is a short telephoto on DX sensors and the 35mm is a "normal" with almost no distortion and I believe three stops faster (allows more light to pass through the lens) or the difference between ISO 800 and ISO 200 with the same amount of light. With Digital as with film as the ISO goes up the noise and grain increases. Or you could increase the shutter speed to prevent motion blur from a moving subject. The VR function of the 18-200mm eliminates most blur from camera shake but has no effect on subject motion. A faster shutter speed allows a smaller amount of subject motion to be captured so blur is reduce. Wikipedia defines f-number as: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F_stop
