My kit lens for my Nikon D3000 broke and I'd like to replace it. It was a Nikon DX AF-S Nikkor 18-55mm 1:3.5-5.6G.
On the Nikon website, I see two potential replacements:
1. for $119: AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED II
2. for $249.95: AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR II
They seem about the same to me, and I can't figure out exactly why one is $130 more than the other. I would buy a better quality lens if I thought it was worth it, but I would like some expert guidance before I shell out more money.
Thanks!
