Hi guys and gals,

I'm looking to get a one stop carry around lens, mostly for holiday trips and to save on packing lots of lens and I'm currently thinking of the 28-300mm. Doing all the internet research at the moment but would like to hear personal reviews from actual everyday users. 

Out today and plan to have a look for one and get a feel for it, so before I think about a purchase( especially as it comes under the UK rebate right now) any views good or bad would be appreciated.

I have only just switched to Nikon. Previously I has a set of Calumet wireless triggers on my Canon and they worked really well on both my strobes and studio lights and were really useful when out doing star trails and lightpaint/night photography..... What I would like to know is what triggers peeps on here are using and any pros or cons to them. I know quite a lot about pocket wizards but cant spring for them at the moment so I'm looking for reliable alternatives.
